Vs Essendon just because of mates giving Melbourne so much [censored], so much that it made me put 100bux on the line wed win one before them.

And hopefully Brocy as captain playing really good football proving that the speed of the game hasn't taken over!

    It would have to be a close win against Carlton. With Meesen (who no-one else had faith in) and either Spencer or Johnson absolutely carving up Kruezer who they tanked for and Warnock who was seduced by there dirty money and false delsuions of grandeur. Moloney for Captain to erase the hurt of missing out on Geelongs success. Morton for Norm Smith as final insult to their tanking.

    I'd want to beat the arrogance that is Carlton. They also started our premiership drought, after stealing Barassi from us. Since I want Aaron to be our next captain, I voted Bails and Flash holding the cup. Although, wouldn't mind someone like Jack Watts either. ;)

    Would love to beat the saints jack watts 45m out on a slight angle with 2 min to go and couragesly hold the saints off Melbourne win by 2 points! My dreams would have come true!

    Ok, coffee break, we're almost at the weekend and yes it's a another poll. Just thought I'd ask Demonlanders this: -

    If "The Mighty Demons" were playing in the AFL Grand Final next year (of course hypothetically :lol: ; but nevertheless possible), which team would you want The Dees to play and win the Premiership against?

    So think about who you might despise the most, etc....

    I have a sneaky suspicion who the most voted team may be, but I won't influence voting by alluding to the team I have in mind. Vote away....

    Also, think about who you would like to see lift the Premiership Cup on the victory dias. For the sake of the exercise it must be Dean Bailey and someone.

    FootNote: Hey Swamp fox, I've put in *West Sydney & *Gold Coast, just in case you complain about another poll! ;)

    **Did you want me to include a Tassie Team as well? Well I did just in case the poll copped flak! :lol:

    Living in Perth, I would love to beat the Weagles in a 100 point thrashing. Might just keep them off the Back page for a day or two. You should read the crap over here,eg. Back page headlines, "So and so of the Eagles in doubt with a split finger nail on his little finger" and so on and so on. And some of my Melbourne mates ask me, because I now live in the west, if I now barrack for the Eagles! Ha funny ha! Once a Demon ALWAYS a Demon!

    Vs. C'wood. We win by two points, the decider being a set shot by Greeny after the siren (from 50m. on the boundary, of

    course!). The thought of it takes me back to '64. I'm not sure the heart could handle it this time around, but geez, I'd die a happy bloke.

    The Filth and Juda$'$ carltank were high, but I despise the bullies and would love to slaughter them in a GF, then the next 3 years after slaughter Carltank and Juda$.

    Chooka to hold the cup alone, sod bailey :)

    Someone holding a grudge from '54?

  • Quote

    No, I just hate them, I live in the West, and I can't stand them and their crappy club.

    I was not even a winkle in my old mans eye that long ago :P

  • Quote

    Haha, I'm an idiot.

    I saw the "1" in the Bullies column and didn't even see your post.

    I used to live in the west and I have a big soft spot for the Bullies...perhaps because I've moved away?

    You can't go past beating Collingwood, can you? I'd love to see 2011 or 2012 as the next number in 45's sig.

    As for the captain, well, if Dean Bailey is on the podium collecting the cup, I don't care who's standing with him.

    If i had a preference it would be Hawthorn because of the rivalry we had in the 80's early 90's which the hawks had the better of mainly due to the 88 premiership. I hated them with a passion and still do. Bombers would be next for me. Ironic these two were the ones that beat us in the two GFs and that is probably the underlining reason why. Still hate the collingwood and carltons. The bottom line for me really is i dont care who it is i just want a premiership.

  • Quote

    Interesting to see Collingwood is the preferred loser of any Demon Premiership. Sure it would be great to beat them, but jeez, going into a Grand Final against Collingwood would be one for the nerves. Winning, heaven. Losing, absolute hell.

    As for how I would like to win a Grand Final, I always loved how Essendon beat Hawthorn in '84. Something like that would be special.

    As for the poll, I think if one of the options were 'Any of the above', it would win hands down.

    Carlton. Judd. Love to wipe that smug look off the greedy one's face.

    A Grand Final victory Over Hawthorn, Carlton, Essendon or collingwood. With a special mention to Footscray who beat us in '54 so we owe them one. Imagine how good the 50's record would be if we had snared 54!!! Brad Green Hold that Cup Aloft

    ....of course... :lol:

    Having survived watching the Gablich run from the wing as a 10 year old kid in 64 beating the filth by less than a goal is the ultimate premiership dream! (enjoyed 66 and 70 also even wasnt the dees!)

    Thumping the Bummers would be next best because of 2000 GF treatment of our young players!!!

    After so long in the end would not care as long as we break the drought!!

    Aaron or Jack Watts would be worthy candidates to hold the cup up as both likely to be in the mix in 3 or 4 years and not only have the talent but also quality individuals off field too.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
