    1 run to go......i'm getting nervous

    A walk in the park Dc

    However I notice that the interest in Demonland threads has dropped quite a bit in the last couple of weeks.

    by the way what happened to Dr. Who?

    vanished!

    So some good things have happened this year.

    On a different note, Jack Fitzpatrick has been getting better each week and is now kicking a few goals each game. He is moving well and starting to really look much more confident in his game. He has also filled out considerably and with a good pre season, I believe we will have another big strong versatile player. Much like Martin he can play ruck or key forward and he has pace as well. With Gawn they look like our future big man department and not to forget we have a another huge player at full forward in Clark.

    Well that is what our draft picks and our trades will be all about, except maybe for an Under 17 pick who may be a big key forward.

    Is Cook now Gawn Redleg?

    If you cannot make the Casey firsts the future looks fairly bleak IMO

    I think we will keep him for one more year in hope, as it would be too much of an embarrassment to admit we stuffed up with pick 12 . There are enough others who have had a chance and been found wanting who will go first. If he gets another year he will have to show something or he will be gone. It has been suggested to me that we might delist and rookie him. No danger of anyone else grabbing him.

    I know there are probably other examples but it beggars belief that a no. 12 draft pick could be considered for delisting after never playing a senior game

    and finishing there second year in the reserves.

    I smell an epic failure here

    Think I have given up DC at this point the only way for me is a good final series with Casey.

    However to do that you need to be in the senior side which he is struggling to do.

    Perhaps we are playing him at the wrong end of the ground!

    Could be worse, we could be playing him in the wrong sport.

    Oh my God I had not thought of that.

    Could we get a trade from Basketball for him?

    Our favourite Melbourne supporter sinks the boot in again. OTC monday he said "I guarantee Melbourne won't win a flag by 2030". If only we had more like him. It's like having a skunk for a pet.

    I doubt it is that good Redleg

    having said that I think the chance is not before 2020

    PS For me it has gone beyond winning a flag

    With 18 teams and the two new ones getting plenty of assistance for the next 20 years it will get very difficult to make a GF let alone win one

    I doubt it will happen in my life time.

    I will be happy if the MFC can improve to the point we are a powerful team that wins 2/3 of our games.

    That will make me a happy man.

    OD-"epic fail" is a young persons phrase.

    The standards of language are truly eroding when a man of your vintage begins to use such expressions.

    Dead right Biffen

    In spite of my best efforts i have slipped into the 21st century there.

    I will try harder in the future

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
