Gawn has been helping out in defence more than going forward but I agree with the sentiment. Make him earn everything. Melbourne will be doing the same to us so we can't afford to concede anything in the physicality stakes.
Some Freo fans on the Demons board are saying they will go the game and wear Demons scarfs....Nothing better to do on their weekends?

I think it's also because melbourne have a better shot against the tigers than WCE. Nothing against you guys but interstate teams don't rock up in grand finals and history in recent times show that. Adelaide disgraceful last year against the tigers, Bulldogs beating sydney, Wce losing to Hawks in 2015. It's going to be an absolute snore fest if you guys make it and Richmond are meeting you there.

All more reason to play at a neutral ground. Flying interstate is difficult and more so on GF day but its been rigged until the middle of the century so enjoy it.
They're just perennial losers.

Don't forget to throw something in there about the umpires.
There’s a plan underway in Victoria for Melbourne fans who can’t travel to the Preliminary Final against West Coast, to still book their seats at Optus Stadium and leave them empty.
The ‘plot’ has been hatched by Demons fans, and is designed to disrupt the home town advantage for the Eagles.
Mornings with Gareth Parker found it’s not the only disruptor being worked on to help the travelling side..plus some fighting words from Optus Stadium CEO, Mike McKenna.
Listen to Neil Mitchell’s idea here.

Wow....
Fremantle fans disguised as Melbourne fans & melbourne fans booking tickets but not turning up..
Sound scared to me haha

Lol 10 people aren't going to make a difference.
He has also mentioned how they have spoken to Ch7 to allow footage from live from melbourne with their fans chanting to be showed on the big screens at optus stadium....and ch 7 like the idea!!
That is absolutely ridiculous.
What an absolute crock of shit.
Yet interstate clubs are constantly mocked by all and sundry if they lose a couple of games in Melbourne.
Suddenly it’s all hands on deck to help the poor Melbourne sides and their poor supporters as they deal with the epic hardship of having to travel to play a prelim against the side that finished 2nd
Basil will probably be the host live from Melb
That being said - channel 7 don't control the big screens at optus do they? It is all done internally as replays are few and far between on the screens.
Plus anything contentious they NEVER replay on the big screen - presumably so as not to piss off the crowd. No way would they do this there would be a riot
ive noticed that too … its almost like censorship … FFS because we cant be trusted apparentlyBasil will probably be the host live from Melb

Vics are scared. Funny thing is they don’t realise the more shit they pull the louder our crowd gets. They’re just stoking the fire with their “booing everything” and “worst fans in the league” calls. If that big screen thing goes through it’ll be a joke.. we have home final, to bad if the crowd is too loud for you you soft*****. Guaranteed if roles were reversed you wouldn’t hear a peep about the crowd.
Was going with one of them and was expecting him to get the tickets but he got tickets from another mate (also a freo fan). I’m at work and there’s now no way I’m gonna be able to get tickets at 2

This talk of chaos ball that Melbourne do into the forward line will surely play into Mc governs hands? Even better is the fact we will actually be playing back this time.
That just screams fear. Lmao.
