THE LAST TIME THEY MET


Demonland

Recommended Posts

The second last time, we played a home game against them at Etihad Stadium but they don't have to play us at the WACA or Northam.

Anyway, we gave them a fair shake for a while.

Round 16

Melbourne def. by Fremantle

6.4. (40) Q1 3.2 (20)

8.6 (54) Q2 6.5 (41)

12.7 (79) Q3 11.6 (72)

12.11 (83) Q4 18.9 (117)

We lead for three quarters, then we failed to kick a goal in the last quarter and Freo rolled us by kicking the last 9 goals...

Was also our lowest Victorian game crowd attendance @ 13,284

If I remember correctly, we were killing them until Mark Jamar went down and an unfit Stefan Martin had to ruck the rest of the game. After he failed to rise to the occasion, the inevitable occurred. I remember it being one of our better games last year, and it gives me a bit of hope for this weekend.

Doesn't anyone remember R23?

I guess we were all done with the season by then, but it turns out we did play Fremantle in Round 23 last year (at "Patersons" no less).

Freo won by ten goals, Ballantyne kicked 3, Sylvia had 25 touches and Jack Fitzpatrick (!) was our leading goalscorer with a mighty haul of two.

The last time they met it was at Patersons Stadium and we were already thinking about the tough pre season ahead that was going to catapult us up the ladder after the heat of the Northern Territory.

Sure thing.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
