Well, Round 1 is upon us

First, my suggested team to take on the hapless Dorks

Its a shame that Sylvia wont be playing, as I was looking forward more than anything to seeing him show the competition he has arrived with a monster game to open the season. But alas.

B - Bartram Carroll Bell

HB - Wheatley Rivers Petterd

C - Bruce Jones Green

HF - Robertson Dunn Garland

F - Newton Neitz Davey

R - White McLean McDonald

I/C - Moloney Meesen Buckley Yze

Emer - Whelan Holland Miller

I am expecting Bruce and McLean to pull their fingers out of their pooper and give us plenty of drive from the middle. These 2 guys really have to hit top form for us to be good all year.

Aaron Davey to run riot. I firmly believe this is his year.

One of the Glen-fairies to try and do something tough, before being ironed out by the big skipper and being stretchered off the ground.

Buckley to electrify the crowd with some scinitillating runs through the corridor.

Moloney, Jones and Junior to dominate the stoppages.

Bartram to remind u just how damn good he was in 2006.

Bell and Rivers to do their thing, and dominate in the air and on the ground.

Results

Melbourne 21.15 141

Hawthorn 13.12 90

    Campbell Brown isn't playing. Does that void your prediction YM?

    Regardless of our pre season this is the final nail in the coffin for us. We're done for in this game now :lol:

    Great work by Bate to kick a goal without being selected in the side. I think I have underestimated his ability!

    By the way Miller will play.

    Great stuff Yze_Magic

    You failed to mention the shock move of the day.

    In an act of desperation by the Dorks, Buddy Franklin will be moved to CHB after Half time to try and stop a rampaging Brad Miller

    Will that be before or after Jamar dominates the ruck and picks up 30 disposals around the ground? And at what stage of the game will the flying spaghetti monster make an appearance?

    Have you bought your membership yet Yze_Magic? :rolleyes:

    No, Jaded

    I always buy it at the gate in Round 1. Its tradition.

    By the way, I spoke to Chris Connolly on the phone about half an hour ago. Bate definitely wont play, so I have edited my team to accomodate this

    He still kicked a goal, this kid just doesn't give up! Can't wait til he actually gets a game this season, will kick 20.

    the FSM will not make a public appearance unless there are many pirates there to worship him. The FSM has been busy around the rest of the world creating bad weather and natural disastors as a warning to us all that there are not enough pirates. To think his noodley appendage would make an appearance at a mere football game is wishful thinking indeed...

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
