Demons to pluck Eagles wings in scintillating fashion

This is my first match prediction for some time, due to my extended holiday courtesy of an over zealous moderator who shall remain nameless.

I know you have all been waiting for this, so here goes...

Since the great YM was last on Demonland, a certain Colin Sylvia has taken the league by storm. As you all know, there has been no bigger supporter of The Kid than my self, and it is an amazing feeling to be vindicated like this. His game against the Hawks was the best individual performance by any Demon this decade. and you would have to go back to Garry Lyons 10 goal haul in the 1994 Semi Final to find something greater.

hang your head in shame all those who wanted him traded, delisted, dropped etc.... Truly embarrassing stuff.

Sylvia is now the Demons best player, and has shown why he was picked 3 in the 2003 National Draft. He simply has it all - pace, strength, aggression, amazing overhead, booming kick.... What a gem.

Now, to this Saturday...

The Eagles come to the MCG, and they will be here without their superstar Dean Cox. With him missing, and with home ground advantage, this automatically gives the Demons a 6 goal head start.

I believe that this week, the forward line will FINALLY cut loose. It has been a long time coming indeed. Now we have some real talent up front, I can see us really having a day out against a woeful Eagles combination.

A win will be important to give the kids hope again, and it will be delivered in style.

THE RESULT

Melbourne - 27.17 179

West Coast - 11.10 76

Goals - Sylvia 8, Jurrah 5, Watts 4, Davey Martin Bate 2, Bennell Morton Grimes Moloney

Best - Sylvia, Jurrah, Morton, Davey, Frawley, Bennell, Watts, Moloney, Grimes

Jurrah - 18 disposals, 8 marks, 5 goals

Watts - 16 disposals, 6 marks, 4 goals

Bennel - 22 disppsals, 1 goal

Demons by 103 points, and a sweet glimpse into the future.

It will be interesting to see the result of this match. If we win, the Coasters will say that they did it for the pick and we are not the better team. If we lose then we will all feel pretty avg, but at least we will get picks 1 and 2.

I really want to win this match. I want Morton to smash Masten in possies and Watts to get a game against an avg mob so he can show us his worth

Whilst the mods may have banned you, I'm sure I say on behalf on a number of demonlanders it's great to have you back Yze Magic... You definitely talk a lot of crap, but the place isn't the same without you...

Welcome Back...

Welcome back mate.

As some others may not be as excited to have your amazing insight back, I for one look forward to your posts.

I hope your right about the result.

Welcome back YM. I think even your most ardent opponents on this site would have missed you.

You gotta miss optimism like that! LOL

Last I heard, Cox is training and should be right to play this weekend.

He was a strong supporter of the Kid like I was, but it did get to a point when we did jump off for a small amount of time.

But we stayed a hell of a lot longer than most.

Welcome back YM...Nice to have some optimism on this forum, missed ya!

However, Eagles are coming off the back of a great win against a hungover Dorks, without Cox.

YM is an entertaining poster who brings colour to the forum.

But his constant bagging of Bruce is beyond an unfunny joke, or an uhealthy obsession.

For example he suggests that Bruce should be dropped this weekend even though he was our second best player V's Brisbane and looked like 1 of about 4 Demon players who looked capable of playing at AFL level last week.

You've been away? Didn't realise.

Welcome back.

Melbourne to kick 27.17? Sure you aren't tallying up the scores for the next 3 matches?

I like this guy. Sylvia to collect 39 disposals, 12 marks, 8 goals in round 15 against P.A. Black horse for the brownlow medal.

Ummm... dark horse?

We wouldn't want to be racist! ;)

ummm, YM has been all about the kid... was about the only one at one point

No. He has been all about himself. It's only a matter of time b4 he takes another trip to the abyss. He jumped well off Sylvia's bandwagon for a period of time. He can join the queue at the back of the Sylvia bandwagon. As long as he buckles up. Cos I'm the one driving.

He was a strong supporter of the Kid like I was, but it did get to a point when we did jump off for a small amount of time.

Correct.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
