Spot on Redleg

I don' want to appear a smart arse but i have just got home after a great 24 hours.

Baby sitting overnight my two and half year grand daughter never ceases to bring a smile to my face.

Then off to see Uni Blacks play De la salle in the top of the ladder clash.

Blacks won by 11 points, close game and by Amos standards a good one.

Nice to go to a football match were I have the belief that my team has a good chance of winning.

My wife and I had a good day meeting a couple of friends, couple of drinks in Carlton on the way home.

On the way home she said to me "nice to go to a games and enjoy yourself!"

Next comment was are you going to another dees game this year?

Hmm very good question

I have had a great 24 hours as well, dees haven't been thrashed today. Oh that's right Casey were done by 10 goals.

We have too many players who are not AFL standard. Our disposal is still poor. Our kick out plan doesn't exist. We need another 4 skilled mids.

The Kreuzer cup game appears to be the most costly in recent history. That win cost us Cotchin and Nic Nat.

Sounds like a weekend to savour, OD. If the iPad is still behaving itself, then maybe the only thing lacking is the Dees beating Hawthorn by 10 goals in two weeks time (yes, I am an idiot! :blink: )

Having just read some of the other threads on Demonland, I am extremely grateful that this one has not descended to the nastiness of a few of the others.

There is still a place for a laugh and a discussion on football and our club without being attacked.

Amen to that, Redleg. The Zen nature of this thread is a real joy.

iPad is working well R and B typing on it right now.

So all is well.

Ha ha the MFC beating Hawthorn I think you are at Starbucks right now.

Seriously mate I have gotten over the Dees.

Having spent five years of being irrelevant

I have accepted we are headed for the oblivion.

The only thing left is the time frame.

I am at peace

That last bit is the key, OD. Long may it last! Maybe one day we can sit near the old race, watch the Dees win and laugh about 'when we were crap' :-)

I hope we live that long mate!

It pays to remind yourself there is a lot more to life than a football team.

The Starbucks coffee was ok the banana bread tasted like stale cardboard.


Our players would drown.

I doubt it Redleg they would need to first find the effort needed to climb onto the diving board.

And if they did, with their skill, they would fall off.

Then drowning is a real possibility!

Presumably you won't be back, then? Unless you prefer fresh cardboard ... :blink:

Not to mention getting lost on the way down :)

Too right on both counts.

Well certainly not for banana bread.

Celebrity splash?... *shudders*

what would be our diving line up

top ten please

and you must name a coach and captain

1 being our best 10 least

and you must pick a sub no pun intended

I'd pick Viney (captain) as #1... because when he jumps in a pool he doesn't get wet - the water gets viney'd.

Followed by Yze, Robinson, Farmer and Howe for some theatrics

Then the rest would be our usual flops, Johnstone, Morton, Cook, Bennell, and Bate

Sub... Woewodin (got to have a 'star' in there)

For a coach I'd definately have MN for a bit of controversy... or a bit of inspiration for players to jump

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
