Well, why not? We've turned up on Queens Birthday in past years when no-one expected us to, 2007 & 2010 in particular. Great grinding, hard fought win tonight, bring that pressure and intensity next week and there's no reason we can't go toe-to-toe with the Pies especially with Neeld and Brown's inside knowledge of some of their players.

Hopefully Frawley's back and Garland can stay up forward to see if he can build on tonight's game, might throw a few spanners in the works and test Buckley out. It gives us some flexibility too with option of swinging Watts and Garland at either end and Clark able to go into the ruck which is good as we need options instead of being one dimensional with our KPP's.

GO YOU MIGHTY DEMONS

Was so pumped in the last quarter tonight and so happy for the boys and Neeld to get the monkey off the back. They need to build on this now and play some smarter football (too many players going up is my main gripe) but let's savour the win for the moment. Hopefully we can enjoy this this week and not find things to slag off the club about - we are all Demons supporters after all and we should all be ecstatic after knocking off those stinking Bombres tonight!

 

Go redlegs, but I'm hoping for another four quarter performance. We've only done it once this year. If we continue to do it and put in the effort we did tonight, we'll be moving in the right direction.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.
