Watts. It's amazing how much [censored] he still gets from supporters. I hear Melbourne supporters call him weak and stuff if he gets tackled or can't hold a tackle.

We're still anywhere between a 4-12 win team. It depends a lot on so many different variables.

Tyson won some important clearances for us every single time GC challenged. Tyson - There when needed

Didn't mind the song but they need to blend it together better with the club song. Love the electronic banner around the sideline, but the pinkish red Fujitsu one really hurt my eyes.

Was loud. Size wise it looked around 25k-30k, sound wise...40k.

I don't think anyone ever expected Watts to be like Archer.

I love our song but that is awful. Sorry Just sing it as is ffs!

There's also the whole "it took 31 seconds for the club to decide between Toumpas and Wines".

He's the rare sort of hot head that walks the walk. I love Vince.EDIT: I'm on my phone and quoted the wrong post. I meant Vince, obviously. Demonland needs a mobile app.

Why is he even on the Demonland banner? Jetta should be there. At a crossroad and evolved dramatically.

He's just been an average player in a bad, bad team. Unsurprising.

Didn't last long, though. 87 - Great year 88 was good for forgettable for obvious reasons 89 - Solid year 90 - Solid year 91 - Solid year It was good, not great. I think we hold the Northy years highly because he put us into the finals for the first time in 23 years. But really that weren't all that remarkable.

To be frank I fear that Roos' vision for the team and Jackson's intentions appear at odds. Roos needs money to help create the team and install the discipline and vision he wants via an expanded football department. Jackson wants money that can now only come from winning games and improving the club's selling product. Which comes first: the chicken or the egg? Winning games in 2015 is absolutely integral. Starting the season off strong is very important. Roos saying that losing round 1 isn't the end of the world appears at odds with what Jackson is trying to do. Round 1 is a must-win. If we can't beat a beaten-up Gold Coast side, which has only won twice on the MCG in its history, in the first game of the season after the "hardest pre-season ever" (according to the players), then where will the wins come from? The playing group needs to stand up now.

Agreed. Could never see us winning the game last year. Suns just couldn't finish it but always stayed just ahead.

I thought last year's game was more one-sided than the final score showed. They absolutely smashed us around the stoppages and had 10 more scoring shots. They led by 30+ at once stage and even when we did challenge, we always gave up 2-3 very easy goals in return which blew the lead back out again. It was never close. GC just kind of took the foot off the gas for 5-10 minute periods. We kicked the last two of the game but it was over long before that, even if we only lost by 8. GC never looked like losing that one. We will win this game if we slow down their run, and don't ourselves go through the traditional 30-minute patch of ineptness. Our NAB Cup games haven't been promising in that regard: all three games had whole quarters where we were just terrible. Give GC that much freedom and they'll kick 5-6 goals in a row. This game will be won and lost in the midfield.

I see that the honeymoon period for fans is over Time to deliver.

Hogan sitting in the back. Confirmed signed with Freo.

Won't happen. Hawks have him stitched up *if* he comes to Melbourne. They'll have the cap space and a few players retiring and no one will be able to match it.

Have you Hird? It's all over and Don with. I'll let myself out.

No. It just means that you need to love Melbourne to support Melbourne Interpret that any way you wish

I'm not expecting much. He looked a bit raw during the NAB Cup. I'm not sure if it was because he was holding back as Gonzo mentioned or if he was just trying to get a feel of the game, or both. Those loose hands we not a pretty sight and he dropped two absolute sitters but I think that when he gets a better feel of the pacing of an AFL match and gets a bit more confident, body-on-body, he'll be tough to beat. He's still a "goal a game" kind of guy even when he looks raw. He just has a natural talent to kick goals so if he can contribute with 1-3 goals and be involved in a few others in his debut I think that will be a massive win, irrespective of his other stats.

It's a good ad. It loves the smell of its own farts but I don't mind that. It's taken far too long for the club to embrace the city itself. It's true that it's hard to sell a crappy product. The only thing that will save this club is winning now. No amount of branding will help. Must win games.

This place is going to be hell when GC pummel us by 10 goals. And by "hell" I mean a circus because it'll be entertaining.
