Melbourne Death Ride 2025 - we’re getting the next Andy McGrath

Looks like BIG BAD BUSTLING BALTA should be in to take on the Dees next Thursday.

Plus Lalor.

Plus Mansell.

That would be their strongest side all year. Hopefully gives them some sort of chance against Melbourne.

Why has Gerard Healy decided to become the cheerleader for Demetriou?
( Demetriou always had it over Gil with that affidavit to get him cleared of insider trading).

That’s actually not a horrific team. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not great, but I reckon if they’re up for the fight they could be capable of beating the Melbourne we’ve seen so far.

Already been punished enough? So far all he’s received is a few weeks suspension for being a thug

It’s very Freo aligned.

Freo to give Melbourn the old “Freo Heave Ho”

Just a little bumpski to keep this thread up the top where it belongs.

Going to Melbourne vs Freo on Saturday. Mainly to hear the certified banger that is the Freo club song, but also to enjoy this deathride.

Not sure if I’ll be in Melbourne, but if I am think I’ll go to the Richmond v Melbourne match.

I’ve just done a ladder predictor, would be pretty happy with this.

I don’t really see Richmond getting more wins than us, surely West Coast get one win out of the two matches they play against Melbourne.

We do have St.Kilda’s second round pick, so them finishing a bit lower would be nice.

I think that last few weeks would break Zach Merrett but if it’s on the back of multiple injuries and the young players running out of puff, with numerous ‘brave losses’, that’s the year we vitally need.

You know we’re just missing finals though, don’t you? And Melbourne will rally.

Make sure you take a banner that says “Thanks for the 1st round draft pick, Melbourne!”.

MCG security don’t like banners which might risk any unrest, so I’ll have to conceal it within a handgun to get it in.

Surely they’ll be giving security that day off?

Chaps don’t let chaps bring in vulgar stuff like guns.

So you’ve got Geelong not losing another game and Melbourne winning 1 in total for the whole season?

You must have us tanking ill be surprised if we finish that low.

Wasn’t super serious, it was moreso focusing on the bottom 8.

Would be funny as fk to see a contigent of bomber fans showing up to every melbourne game, wearing Essendon gear, cheering like mad for whoever the Dees are playing

EDIT: Yes, the Freo song is indeed a certified banger but it was even better with the Song of the Volga Boatmen intro
