Round 23

Posted

The AFL has just released its fixture for Round 23 - view here.

Hawks Eagles Friday night at the G could be massive.

Essendon Collingwood Saturday night likewise - their first Saturday night game since 2002.

We've got the Saturday night slot against the Dockers to end a miserable, miserable season - fittingly, in most likely a miserable, miserable fashion.

 

Hope it's not Greeny's farewell game was hoping for a Sunday Game as I have a mates 40th that night

Ugh, trust this season to torture me to the very end by ending on the day of my birthday.

I refuse to cancel my plans so I can watch us lose. First game I'll miss watching, probably ever.

Stupid stupid 2012 season!

 

WGAF the season from hell will be over soon....


I'm heading to the Bentleigh Club with a few Dees fans for the last game of the year. Would be good to get a bit of a crowd there to finish off the season. Get along if you can make it.

I don't think that I've ever looked forward to a season ending before this year.

I've had that feeling for at least the last 3 seasons. I've been hanging out for the draft since quarter time in the first game of the year, that's when our season was officially over.

I watched that from Koh Samui. For some reason, I stupidly thought we wouldn't be too bad - we'd played poorly and led by two goals... How wrong I was.

It just went downhill from there.

I was in Samui watching that game too. Were you in the Aussie bar across the street from where Ark bar is?

I'll be in the stands at subi oval cheering for #18, and hoping for a decent showing from the boys. At least the dockers have a track record of blowing games they can't loose so I have some distant glimmer of hope!

Shall be there next week. Lamai Beach. Woo Hoo...

I usually am able to enjoy just about every game we play. Even if we're losing, I can find some sort of positive to make the game somewhat enjoyable. I've watched every game from the past 5 seasons in it's entirety (yes, that includes 186), however, this season has just become too much. I was very optimistic during the preseason and even up to about round 4, but now I just want a break and don't want to see the Demons take to the field until they have a radically changed list. Bring on 2013....

I was far more bullish - it was three quarter time in that match for me.

I got to the 20 minute mark and realised it was going to go pear shaped. By half time, it was proven beyond any doubt.

What worries me more than anything is that I haven't been angry after any loss this year, I used to storm out of the ground all fired up and full of emotion but now I just walk out of the ground as if I'd been watching a B grade movie at a cinema.

  • 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.

  • 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.
