There are two things I am certain we can agree on!

If we win we will both be happy and if we lose we will both be sad.

The rest is all just opinion.

Car'n the DEES

You were right O.D. And unfortunately, I was sadly off the money lol (the ever optimist of 40+ years....arghh)

I am sad. (Actually i'm not, just annoyed and frustrated etc. The usual feelings most Deminions have after yet another crappy effort)

I tips me hat mate :)

Looking forward to your next preview versus Saints. Then again maybe i wont like what i'm gonna read lol.

After yesterday's effort and all the outs we have, the Saints will have to lose about 10 players today if we're to have any show i'd think.

RN this is one of times that it gives me no joy in being correct.

However I think yesterday there were a couple of genuine excuses.

Injuries have cripial us in just 2 weeks and then we lost 2 players who have been among our best

since the start of the season.

With another couple in danger of being suspended it looks very grime for the rest of May.

Right now I am too depressed about the Dees to make much of what will happen next saturday.

Perhaps in a couple of days when I can think straight.

I thought Martin and Newton showed some effort and it was not their fault we lost.

But is bloody depressing at present feels like 2009 all over again

Yep. It is isn't it. And yeh, it does feel a little like 2009 doesn't it. And...2007, 2008, and ummm 1974, 1978, 1981, 1996 & 1997 (apart from the Richmond game towards end of season yay! Birth of the Ooz, and a few others i think).

P.S. Your use of the word Grime for Grim...nice work lol

We can still beat North Tomorrow...with the right attitude...This is why juice was retained, as a back up Ruckman.

Come on Juice, turn it on...Do it for yourself, if not for us!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
