Too late deever ! The Manor's attack dogs have just breakfasted.

It's good to hear from you Uncle.

The standard of humor has really been below par without you.

Enjoy the game mate.

 

It’s game day baby. Pumped!

Just take it easy today Demonlanders, it’s only round one. Don’t get feral.

It’s a long season.

Go Dees!!

Well I have no idea what to expect today.

But it's currently raining which is good to see but hopefully it's cleared up by game time

My sleepy eyes read this as breastfed.

Initial thought was you getting the maids to feed the dogs.


Just hitting 28 degrees at 9am up in Sydney, and it is another of those days where the sun pierces your bones.

The in-laws arrive in about 30 minutes.

Oh, please, holy Demon powers, transport me to a chilly, sodden and windy MCG for an afternoon.

Gee thats tough for Round 1.  Blame the AFL.

looks like still a bit of rain forecast around 3-6pm

it's a huge test for us today

i loathe all the franchises, but i reserve a special level of opprobrium for gw$, al begun before they'd even played a game from the get go caused by them taking away a #1 pick from us after he'd played a mere 31 games in red and blue

I'm no great weather forecaster but there is currently some rain and bluster ( not only mine ) at The Manor. This , combined with a look at the radar and an examination of a hapless chook's innards convinces me that inclement conditions will be all gone by this arvo.

It’s going to be windy as hell though. 

Lets get it done!

Devastated i cant be there for Jim's game and get a chance to wear one of my fav guernseys.

Good Evening Dees fans.

A while since I posted but hope you've all had a great "off season."

All the best for 2025! (and before this thread gets nasty...) Let's remember they're a good side and we've got 6 debutants! Lots can go wrong, but fingers crossed for a W.

Go Dees!

Also add the fact they have played one game and we are first up.

HarpenDees post should be pinned to the top of the GameDay thread and anyone who posts forced to read and accept their understanding before they can pass :)

Cant wait to get to game time. Lots of rain in Melbourne and not looking like it will clear fully. Cant decide if that's a good or bad thing for our chances. Keen to see the debutants and all having a serious attacking and defensive crack for 4 quarters. 

Go Dees.

Just now, whatwhat say what said:

i'll give you a clue; his surname started with $

how could i forget the dollar man got his right whack career wise in the end

 

I am probably going to the game but I'm finding it hard to care when we have a very good chance of an Aussie Grand Prix winner.

  • GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road for their 3rd interstate game in 4 weeks as they face a fit and firing Crows at Adelaide Oval. With finals now out of our grasps what are you hoping from the Dees today?

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
