After last week I wasn't going to go today but have backflipped as the kids said they wanted to go. I don't know if they know what they are in for, I am genuinely worried about today.

    Dees in a close finish?
     

    It’s fitting this is an Easter game being we are generally Freo’s bunnies. I would have liked to have seen Adams brought in for May but otherwise the changes have us look more balanced and at least we have 2 forwards that have been kicked goals at the lower level recently. What I hope to see is manic effort and a focus on structure without the ball. I hope to see movement forward when we have it and movement forward of the ball for those wanting it. I hope the player with the ball trusts his gleam mate and looks to execute the first attacking option to a player that puts us in the best chance to score.

    If Sparrow is going to tag Brayshaw or Serong do it at the bounce not at the expense of another position. Time to move Viney forward and Rivers in the rotation. Let Langford and Oliver rotate and Trac or Pickett rotate. Windsor back to the wing and Chin to high half forward.

    I don’t think we’ll win today but I do think there is a great chance to show the first true steps of change that will have us moving in the right direction.

    Whats not discussed is our first 3 games at the G have been against GWS, GC & Freo with poor attendances and impacting on gate receipts, the AFL finds a way to dump on us.The finances of our club need to be considered sitting @ 0-5 & possible worse come Anzac eve!

    Hopefully we can somehow get a win but if we don't we always have below and no-one can ever take that from us no matter how hard they try.

    Sportsbet have Freo at $1.29. Looks overs to me.

    I got on Freo earlier in the week @ $1.45. Hope I lose my money ... (not likely!)

    Were already depressed about this season and its only Round 6.

     

    I never thought I'd ever say this but thank you Essendon.

    You have given us the chance to get out from being the worst club in the league points wise at least.

    Go Dees.

    And I hope Fritta enjoys his time in the magoos.

    Got 2 x Free tickets if anyone is keen, please DM me and I’ll send via text.

    Centre wing Medallion Club (basically just AFL Reserve I believe).

    Go Dees!

    Thank you club who manhandled us so easily last week for scratching past the worst team of the last 3 years and nearly blowing it. We are in your debt

    Three coffees and two Red Bulls in and I’m fired up and ready to go!!!

    There’s a chance we’ll lose today.

    There’s a chance we’ll win.

    I’m gonna focus on the chance of a win.

    Note: gates open earlier today (11:30am), due to the extra time needed to check folks upon entry. Sadly though, I don’t think the extra time is needed since it won’t take long to check so few people 😢

    Freo are a great team. Solid midfield, defence and ruck.

    2 McDonalds and 2 Sharps.

    Dees by 6


    A fwd line that struggles to accrue 60 points each week with a back line that concedes about 100 points each week.

    And a midfield that plays like a group of headless chickens ....we are still a good chance to win.

    Not sure if your being sarcastic. But if you are about the fact that they manhandled us, I would not say that was their( Essendon's) fault, Sir.

    Our players are grown men and seasoned players, so if anyone is to be blamed for them being manhandled, I would strongly suggest to start there.

    Anything else imho, is just making excuses. And poor ones at that

    I'm not suggesting for a second that you are BP, but anyone who does, is a complete fool.

    Enjoy the game.

    I am positive today.

    Why?

    I think our mids will take up the challenge matching Freos stars.

    Fullarton in signals a new approach or emphasis on better approach forward . That’s it, not much but I’m going to enjoy it.

    True with the crowd but what a great opportunity for the AFL to look at curtain raiser again. Even under 18s

    I like it. We still have a midfield that can bully the opposition, but we must get some (early) return on it and we're a chance. Would help if viney oliver langdon and a few others hit the scoreboard. They all get their chances but choke inside 50 time and time again. Expecting our front 6 to kick a winning score is huge ask. Push forward and snag a few

    No chance. Anything below 50 loss will be positive. But Ill be there nonetheless

    I’m not superstitious but I do wear the same Melbourne socks to every match. However, this year I’ve been wearing our new Demon Army socks. I couldn’t find them this morning so I’m wearing the Melbourne socks today. We all know what that means, don’t we boys and girls?! Yep, a win for sure!

    Y’all are soooo welcome 😘

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
