Unconfirmed rumour from a mate that Steven May is out. No other info. Take with a grain of salt at the moment.

We've had a good spread of goal kickers in the past, with the mids having to carry some of the load.

Hoping we get a functional forward area, where we start converting the many entries, and the forwards get the majority of scores.

I'd be thinking the mids are carrying an inordinate amount of the load.

We'll  see

Go us

    Bbbut we might break a record??!?

    (I have no idea whether we would - I expect a franchise holds the competition record)

    Anyone on the fence about going, PLEASE GO! Crowd will be low because its against GWS, the F1 is on and the weather is poor. Let's try get at least a few more Dees supporters there to show support for our boys, and especially the debutants!

    18 debutants in the first game of 1897 is probably the record, held by a few teams.

    i expect an entire bay of level 2 in the afl members will be mine - m18, for milkshake, is my usual locale

    my expectation is i'll saunter up there and the usher will still do the CAN I SEE YOUR TICKET when there's NO ONE coming

    At the Saturday training he was in runners (not boots like everyone else), though still participating.

    Certainly wouldn’t risk May with such an inexperienced tall fwd line

    Bring in a small to lock down Daniels 

    Or T Mac to handle Gruz

    Love Round 1, hate that it is Sunday 3.20pm and F1 weekend. 

    I will have eyes on Jeffo who is surprisingly good in the wet (a few games at Casey last year). I am not expecting too much, but want to see his leading, effort and attitude.

    Max will be a huge factor in the game - win or lose.

    Can the 6 debutants quickly play our defence/stoppage game?

    Will our forward line look or feel different with new line coach and new faces? I definitely hope so.

    GWS are very well coached, disciplined except for their skipper, and transition as well as anyone. They go in likely favourites. 

    Should be a cracker, hoping for a 20 point win.

    And let’s be honest… a significant portion of our fanbase won’t attend because of the rain.

    Rain wouldn't keep this Melburnian Seattleite away!  Living in Seattle has taught me how to deal with rain.  (Living in Melbourne didn't....)

    However there's the little matter of noone has developed a teleporter yet so I'm stuck here for the nonce and only able to watch on the tv.

    This is the flattest start of a season for me that I can remember. Too much [censored] and brutality in the world. Footy seems so unimportant and not even much of a positive distraction anymore given all the pathetic dramas from the end of last season. Still I will be watching and hoping for a win. More hope than confidence.

    Looks like the rain will be clearing by bounce down which is nice. Might be some light rain to start, but should be gone pretty quickly 

     

    Good luck to the demonland faithful 

    may the good ship AFL

    bestow good luck fair seas and lots of wins

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
