As bad as it looks I can see it starting to come together.

They are a tough playing group and recruit the same.. Have a tough totally uncompromising coach who just doesn't accept defeat and who never makes excuses. Just a couple of differnces from us.

Shits me how well North are going. We were right with them a couple of years back.

Let's be honest. That is where we are at. How we got there, who is to blame and what not is inconsequential in as far as moving forward. Mistakes have been made. Let's look at the game on it's merits.

We came in as a 5-1 chance today in a two horse race. That to me would say a five goal loss.

Negatives:

* run and spread is poor thus resulting in the huge disparity in possession.

* Hitting a target is also a problem.

* We need a target (s) up forward. Hurry up Mitch Clark and Chris Dawes.

* When the ball is going in fast to the opposition forward fifty, the back line looks shaky.

Positives:

* Max Gawn needs to be phased in as number one ruckman. Love his endeavour.

* The white flag wasn't run up. There was a little spunk shown up until the final siren.

* I'm thinking Shannon Byrnes is going to be a good pick up. He is having a go.

* Colin Garland = ditto.

No its not inconsequential. Blame is.

But that information if looked at properly, will show us where we've been wrong onfield, over the last 10 years, & so how we fix it.

our problems are no physical contests, & not defending against the oppositions players... Matthews is right.

too many Dumb Blond Bimbo's in the team.

Anyway, we're training well. We go extra well against the witches hats. Marvellous.

Oh, and our structures, systems, processes, fitness, key performance indicators and development are all tracking just beautifully.

Keep the faith ^_^

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
