noticed the bagging has slowed to a crawl???

now lets be positive

can we beat GWS and BRIZZY turn out 2/3

can we not self implode for the next 12 months

can we let younger players not be targets of media and demonland posts for the rest of season.

can we at least pick on other clubs instead of our own for the next month

Yes we can and we will.

We have just played 3 pretty red hot teams, and have learned alot in those three games.

Time to turn it on for four quarters.

Big Maxy will lead the revival.

Please let Maxy come in this week and dominate.

He can go a long way to lifting our clearance fortunes.

We can beat GWS but that doesn't mean that we will with our confidence in the toilet.

There is no way we can or will beat Brisbane at the GABBA. If we could not beat them Round 1 at the G last year then there is no way we can hope to even come within 100 points of them at the Gabba,

I like people's confidence but I have watched us the past 3 weeks and at the moment we wouldn't beat Dimboola 3rds. No offence to Dimboola 3rds.

Dimboola don't kick off their season until next weekend, I reckon we could get over them as we have had more game time

depends whether its a home game or not

Dimboola don't have Thirds as such but they do have U 17s Football AND Netball Teams.

We'd be a very big show against either. Come on.

dont know about the netball, dont think we have a wing attack to take on a 16 yo country girl with venom, who has just milked 500 cows and fed the calfs before the game???

They should beat GWS by 10-12 goals.

There is too much class up forward and too much experience down back for GWS to really challenge this squad. There are no excuses if they lose this week.

Brisbane, on the other hand, will run rings around Melbourne at the GABBA. You can bookmark that.

Yeah we won by 13 goals last year on the MCG but GWS are now fitter, stronger and older, we may not have 10 of last year's side and we got 8 goals out of Rivers, Bate, Jamar and Davey. It'll be no stroll in the Fitzroy Gardens.

I think even if he can't tap to advantage, with his size he should be able to (tactically) thump the ball forward. That would be better than losing all center clearances.

We have the cattle to play well enough to beat Brisbane, its a matter of will they come to play, if they can reproduce some of that first half form against the Weagles then we have a chance. Sooner or later Dawes 4 weeks are going to finish so it may give us a bit more bite up forward.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
