FOUR JACKS = 13th FLAG

I am now almost 30 years old and been going to watch the dees since i was 4 years old. We have had our ups and very big downs (2011) over my life time so far. But as a member of the best football club of all time i can finally see the light. And that light has been very much alot of hard work from BIG JIM and co. Now we have a club with all the things you need to be the best in this great game. And i think we have the best man for the job in Mark neeld and co to bring the best out of our very good young kids. Our list is no doubt the envy of other clubs as we get ready to take on the world at this game we all love. With all the pain over the last 5 years has not been for nothing we have a young team with some of the very best kids from around Australia. And what will make us the next geelong or collingwood is the 4 jacks we have as weapons. 1st we have Jack grimes who has all the tools to lead this club back to were it belongs and very good skills. It seems he has alot of time on his hands when has the ball which only the best players seem to have. 2nd we have Jack watts who i think will go down as one of the all time greats of this game he has all the skills of James hird and can run all day he will own our forward line over the next 10 years MEGA WATTS is growing into a man lookout. 3rd We have Jack trengove Who is now the youngest afl captain of all time. You do not get given a job like this for nothing i have meet the young man at our best and fairest and he really is very smart and mature for his age and to be seen as a captain by all your team mates at this age says you have a very special player on your hands. And we all know how much talent this young man has. And finally the most important part is Jack viney who we need right now as we all know our midfeild is missing that star power but this kid is as hard as nails and very much going to be the star we need i know its a team game but every great team needs star players and our four Jacks will lead this club to a 13th flag it might come quicker than alot of so called experts think just look at the hawks and collingwood both very young sides. As we sit here right now i have never been so happy as to were our club sits there will be some more ups and downs but our club will have its day soon. GO DEES TIME TO RISE

    I try to temper my excitement at this time of year, as traditionally I have the smile wiped off my face pretty quick. But after saying that, I must confess that I'm pretty much in agreeance with you the BIG JIM :)

    Will be interesting to watch Jack V over the next 12 months. I think the last I heard was that he was a potential top 5 draft pick (but obvously coming to us at whatever F/S pick), but before I go putting high expectations on the kid, I want to hear the likes of Emma Quayle say around September this year that "he should/could be a top 3 pick but Melbourne get to use their pick 12 on him"!

    Just bring on the season already. It's been far too long since our last good game to get me too excited about 2012 - I've forgotten how good some of our kids are going to be!

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
