Firstly, good luck to all players selected to represent the Melbourne Football Club on AFL's biggest stage, it is such an honour.
I am certain the preparation has been thorough and consistent with the season to date.
The forecast of 27 degrees and light breezes, provides a wonderful basis for both teams to showcase their talents, I certainly hope this will be the case.
I am confident that the Melbourne team structure and roles, will enable us to have the edge when the final siren sounds.
I believe there will be times throughout the game, when both sides will dominate, however it will be our superior desire to win, together with fitness that will see us holding the premiership cup aloft.
Every player needs to play their part, and the old saying, that you are only as strong as your weakest link, will never be truer on Saturday.
Thank you to all players, coaching staff and support staff for making this season memorable.
Now is your opportunity to make it unforgettable!!
Go Dees!!!!!!
