Yep. It didn't and the coach has been replaced.

I'll be very disappointed if we don't play a final this year mate.

I try never to predict where we will finish because of looking at the draw. Lets face it anyone who looked at the 2011 draw and said we've done well we have Gold Coast twice and West Coast twice was wrong. It's not about beating the lower teams the games we need to win are those agaisnt the Roos, Dockers, Tigers, Saints, Bombers and Swans who will all be around where we are. Win the majority of those and pinch one or two against the top sides ane we make it.

Totally agree, we are in the middle of the pack and have been the last 2 years, to make the finals we will have to have a win against collingwood or geelong or one of the top 5 or so teams, then we need to win more than we loose against oother teams around the middle like essendon north richmond and then beat GWS port brisbane and the other teams at the bottom, as for my opinion I think we will finsh very similar to last year and the year before that, a game or 2 out of the eight but I would love to be proven wrong and we are starting to run out of excuesses

I reckon the club is quietly confident, and keen to keep the lid firmly on till the real stuff starts.

Ox has smelt the vibe and i reckon is spot on.

If we can hold our game plan during the tough first half of the season, we shall be rolling in the second half, and we have enough depth to endure injuries, and form slumps to ensure we keep rolling...

Perhaps 2011 was another 1999, meaning... :mellow:

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
