Naantali left a bit flat footed around the home turn. Still some good value with the remaining picks.

It’s probably been mentioned already somewhere but I’m wondering if most of the boys went to the same barber during the week. Prime time and a lot of crew cuts.

Liked the HS headline in one article. DeViney Intervention.

Wadda is having his recovery session from last night in the bay as we speak Macca. A quick text to him and he has nominated his substitute best @Morphetville. Race 8 Number 8 Romancer $3.70 J Kah riding for Weir.

Cheers Macca, just got to the TAB and always a wise choice to look in this thread first. We sit back and enjoy the races, rugby and footy today.

Looking forward to this thread a little later on. Hoping Nicholls is BOG for the Pies.

2 words in the heading. Semi Final folks!!!’ Wow...people at the train station post match simply couldn’t believe this is happening, they were slapping themselves to wake up. As to the changes, no change at this stage. We look as settled as we have all year.

Amazing feeling, so much Red and Blue everywhere. Boys were immense all night, you could see the boys feed off the noise level and support to keep pushing even when the goals weren’t coming.

Being a Friday night, chances are Carlton is one of the teams in the curtain raiser.

Can you please post this again for a bit of fun but in the rational alternative Game Day thread?

This thread is on fire....hot,hot,hot!!!

This is the only post that calms the nerves....why are some nervous anyway?

Not that it would have made a difference but why would the Hawks go in with two ruckmen on a night BOM predicted rain?

Oh no, let’s hope the Champ is alright Broose.

She’s getting her lungs ready....

Richmond by 67 in Martin’s 200th. GWS by 3. Pies by 17.

I’d like to see a ‘Demon Decibel’ metre by Channel 7 tomorrow night, like the Toiges had in their prelim last year.

Going early with the ‘ Best Bet’ fellas. Busy couple of days coming up. Mooney Valley Race 1 Number 2 : Naantali TAB Odds: $2.60 An update on Santos. Decided not run the horse in a hot field first up. Santos had an exhibition gallop against Siege Of Quebec in between races last week at Randwick. He did finish about a head behind the other runner but his last 600m was faster than Redzel’s on the day. I believe they have changed their strategy on how to attack the Spring.

For some reason I’ve felt more relaxed the last two weeks than I have all season and this a knockout game. I have no idea what it’s telling me, it could all change when the teams get announced tonight. Maybe the bye has helped in that regard.

David King highlighted Gawn’s positioning in the defensive half on 360 last night. Labelled Max as our Jeremy McGovern. It’s been forcing teams to try high risk passes exiting their defensive 50 due to Max protecting the skinny side of the ground extremely well. Suggested move was to have some one run with Max all day to not allow him to play that role. I don’t know much about Abbott, Stanley is in serious doubt and Smith hasn’t been setting the world on fire from all reports. The logical option would be Blicavs if this was to happen but that could work in our favour if he’s taken out of defence. It will be interesting to see what Goody and Co come up with if the Cats place some one to run with Max. Slobbo also believes Max is the best ruckman since Simon Madden.

Apologies if it sounds negative, wasn’t my intention. More than happy for mods to merge or delete.

After what seems like forever, Friday night is nearly upon us and I’m sure most Demonlanders have been approached by non -MFC friends, work colleagues or family about our appearance in this year’s finals series. Plenty of nice comments have come our way and some are genuinely excited and happy for us. I’d like to hear some comments that made you bite your tongue. Today, I had to bite my tongue when a Hawthorn supporter at work approached me saying that history shows the Melbourne Football Club has no history.??

Paul Marsh was on SEN about a month ago talking about free agency. According to him it wasn’t brought in as an equalisation measure. https://www.sen.com.au/news/2018/07/24/free-agency-disaster-talk-an-overreaction-says-aflpa
