We will win, all that is left is the size of the difference. 

It only Collingwood, their size is extra small.While Melbourne is extra large. It not a fair comparison.

It's growing from zero a couple of weeks ago. Still nothing special. Just an boastful  hope!

Daydream Believer was one of my favourite Monkees songs. In fact I’m humming the song as I write. 

And it was a nice bottle of red.

My confidence is back to zero DF. This club has half a century history of disappointing fans and I see nothing that will change my mind. Every week I have been  waiting for yesterday's result. In previous weeks our improved skill level has won us games but yesterday we saw the MFC do the normal, lose a game that their skill level should have won by 10 goals. The tradition continues.

On the news and in the papers there’s been much ado about Geelong potentially losing 900k if no crowds at Friday’s game. Yet, I haven’t seen a scrap of reporting about our (twice as much) loss to date. I wouldn’t have known about it had I not read it on DL.

There a difference between home and away games and finals footy. We don't know how we will play in finals yet. But its not a bad thing to lose a few home and away games, as long as we keep beating Messydrugs and the Filth! 

However our long term plan to win number 13 has been to wait 100 years since our last GF win. I still feel we are on track so no need to panic.

Uncle Bitter you need to change your music selection to the 21 century, otherwise people may consider you to be a old fart! We would not want that to happen as your picture makes you look so young.

Don't panic.

We lost by under two goals, without another key forward, kicking badly for goal, losing the clearances, with several players badly out of form, our worst pressure half of the year and getting some poor umpiring, to a side that was desperate to win to make the 8.

We can get back to our best again.

Pity it will be after the 2021 AFL Grandfinal.

I think OD comments are sounding correct to me. Bring on the 2022 AFL season!

When is the  $64 question Mr.Leg?

What is that?

I am obviously older than i think.

There was a quiz show in the sixties called the Coles $64 question.

Top Prize was believe it or not 64 pounds.

So a difficult question was often referred to as the $64 question.

So my question to you I guess was when will we get back to our best?

Answer. When we get back to maximum effort and pressure, a settled competent forward line, good goal kicking and decent inside 50 disposal.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
