Of course we can bloody win it weren't you guys watching yesterday

If the machine can stay in that gear and the boys can keep their confidence up they can give anyone a shake

You don't kick 9 goals to 2 in a quarter if you're rubbish

not being pessimistic but rarely do you lose consecutively by 100 points, or lose 6 in a row if your any good...

Guys i got a strange feeling that we might upset the crows at AAMI stadium.

Does anyone besides me feel this feeling?

I do.

Just a little, but I do.

Hmm.... reasons for feeling positive.

PJ listed to play for Sandy this week.

Ditto Whelan.

Cale Morton to get a week to rest his bones.

Bailey will understand AAMI and have a better than average familiarity with the Crows, too.

And who knows what a two-week break to think about the fact that we really can win games will do to our playing group. They might just be ready to go hard.

And unrelated but still positive - people are signing up as members. The club said "sign up, you're needed" and people are bloody well signing up.

Demons fans are legends. We sign up even when it's hell.

Edit: Here's something else that is interesting. Adelaide wins this season have been -

West Coast. (before anyone realised just how much they suck)

Port Adelaide. (at the time, they sucked)

Fremantle. (ahem)

Carlton. (whatever)

North Melbourne. (who really seemed inept last week)

I'm getting the feeling a little more, now.

Earlier on the week, Dean bailey says If the other teams aren’t training and we are, then that’s our chance to sneak up on them.

If we start off well we will get beaten by 10 goals and I would take that anything under that margin will be a miracle and they usually don't happen 2 games in a row. If we don't start off well it will be another 100 point hiding.

bailey also said he was studing their defence and thought he could break it down.. to be honest the crows were never a powerhouse at kicking goals just a damn mean defence .. i think we break even in the middle, their forwards and our backs should be about even too, so long as rivers is in charge, as for our forwards aussie is a gun by the looks of things at reading the ball off a pack.. miller is good at making packs fall over..so play him deepthen its up to ourr boys to run run and keep running..so the main difference will be the crowd and their supporters.. everyone heard the speil about how our supporters really lifted the guys in the last quarter..lets just hope we jump them early then its like a ghost town there lol..

Go Dees- 4 point winners

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
