i beleive that we will have an ok draw, first 2 games on a saturday against some bigger drawing clubs at the G, one home, one away..

A good way to start. only one friday night appearance though, which is to be expected. The rest is pretty standard demon / AFL fixturing!

Thanks!

But please more information!!!

Who we playing round 1? I'm tipping Hawthorn.

How many interstate?

I know we play Port mid year in Darwin.

Cheers.

And can we trust you as a source? Cam Schwab won't let anything out of the bag

Buddy is suspended round 1 I think.

I'm sick of playing Hawthorn first up. Wish it was West Coast at the G round 1.

Are you crazy? Why would you want that? What would we get from having less than 20,000 at the G First round?

Nah...I WANT to play someone like the Sqawkers early :).. I like the idea of the pies twice.

Two good games to start the season. We wont be anyone's doormat anymore. There are quite a number of Demons with things to prove to the world...will be worth watchnig ;)

maybe Carlton 3rd game in ?? :lol:;)

Would like a game where we have a good chance of winning (not a big chance, but a chance). Would be good for the team to kick of the year with a win. Maybe a team like Carlton or Essendon, but I doubt it. Either way, can't wait till round 1 regardless of who it is.

Am also a bit sick of playing Hawks early on, though appreciate their current pulling power. Carlton would be interesting. Good to hear the club is being pro-active, but yet to be convinced about the fixture given last year.

Lets hope they are OUR home games then!

We deserve what we get after the last 3 years. Respect must be earn"t, which isn't a bad thing at all.

Darwin game on a Sat night in May against Port.

That Game is worth around $500K to us from what i have read, so i agree with it, as Melb v Port at the 'G has never been a crowd Puller.

Remember those mothers day Games.

For us at the Moment Darwin Games are good business.

Hawthorn R1 is a good matchup, considering Buddy is still suspended. That game would get a good crowd.

Throw in Chance Bateman (also susp.) and the departure of Mark Williams who always murders us.

Didn't say we didn't (deserve it), if that makes sense. Just remembering that it got worse after from the initial draft.

I can see the point of playing either west coast, freo or another interstate team round 1. It would be round 1 so we would get over 20,000 because people would come to see our new players play to see how they go, also we would be expected to win and winning round 1 would be great. It would be better than round 13 and we have only a few wins and then no one would come.

I stoked about the Darwin games 500k for the club + a win (maybe) but now I can go up to NT every year for a small break get on the [censored] go fishing and watch the footy life doesn't get much better.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
