    That is true. Hopefully our coaches realised after the eagles game that within the rules of AFL you can have more then one forward. This should leave Watts open to dominate.

    I don't know why, but I'm starting to feel like we do have this..

    All we need to do is get off to a good start. We do that, we win.

    This game will kick off our season. Bookmark it.

    Get off to a Solid start, & We CAN Win.

    Concerned we're coming back from Perth and 31 degrees!

    Tom McDonald said he lost 3 kilos!

    Needed everything to go our way to win this one- hope I'm wrong.

    Agreed.

    This is where Misson earns his $$$.

    Yes, just like we could have won the game against the Lions (Eagles game was a bridge too far regardless), yet we lost by 41 points. Unfortunately this game is no push-over, although I do believe it isn't beyond the realms of possibility that we could win; I just wouldn't be putting my house on the result, that's all.

    However, I do find it amusing that as we get past the halfway point in the week after a >100 point drubbing, the wailing and gnashing of teeth makes way for the fanfares ushering in what is certain to be a certain victory and a turning of the corner :-)

    I don't think we will be turning any corners soon I just think we match up too well for the tigers. Right now we have the turning circle of the Titanic but it's all good this weekend Tigers 0-3 Dee's 1-2.

    Moloney out with Groin soreness again this week so we should see Tom Couch get a run.

    I can see us dominating the clearances this week but it's the ball use which needs to dramatically improve.

    I think Mitch will kick a bag on Saturday and we'll get up comfortably.

    Hey peoples Now Just sit back and relax we've got this game against the tigers. Why? How can you say that! we suck, I give up, our list sucks, Recruiting is poor,Schwab needs to go and Bring back Bailey is what I have been reading. We will beat the tigers no drama. I did just post in the changes vs tigers thread so I thought I would start this one because we do have some good players who can win games for us. So I'll start down back. I believe its a very solid backline with Rive,Garland and Chippa. They just need to not be seeing the ball every two seconds and be surrounded by opposition midfielders and that isn't gonna happen against the tigers. Our midfielders will be a lot better this week if Beamer is back. Who is Beamer? Oh yeah he is that bloke who won the B&F last year. With JT,Jones,Magner and hopefully Couch all in and under and also a tag on Martin we've got this. Another game for Russian to prove his worth. Who's Russian? He is an all australian Ruckman and one of the best hit out players in the league. Bate needs to play a full game he is getting touches with little game time so give him a start Neeld. Our forwards will smash them if Ricky P and Clark start deep. They can't handle two big agile forwards who can take a grab. They have no hope of stopping them two. Throw in Watts and Martin and it's in the bag. BRING IT TIGERS! You will be are [censored]! Powerade showers for all GO DEES!

    l like your positve attitude but your dreaming, it will be a 10 goal thrashing.

    I agree we should win by ten goals!

    Demons to run over a cocky tigers outfit. Watts, Clark, Howe and Jones to stand out. 4 goal win and then are all up for a big one v Doggies. Davey to improve. Go Dees!!!

    Get on with plenty. Their backline are pygmies. Disposal wise, none of them could hit a cow's arse with a banjo. Their clearance work is worse than ours. Their top level midfielders are superior to ours but they fall away quickly. Their forward line is Riewoldt - yeah, good player - Miller & Maric

    Get on with plenty C&B

    Dees by 1 point

    Holy s*^t - is that optimism?

    It's contagious cowboy!

    Ok, I'm in - we've got this - Dees by 5.

    Dees to win. Get on the $4 on off for under 39 points.

  • Quote

    Agreed - our defense is solid and does ok against the Tiges. Midfield is the worry.

    I think (hopefully) that things will quite suddenly click at the dees and we will get some semblence of a top 22.

    HahHaHa, yeah, but this is our part of the ladder where in now. We've got a good chance, but it will be a hard slog first half.

    Hopefully we have the leg condition to run the second half out.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
