The Tab spuiker mentioned two very big bets on the wireless.

Happy days for that guy but money can't buy the difference this will make to us.

I am stoked for us all .

I'm speechless. this will give our boys so much confidence for the future that they can start believing in their ability to strangle the opposition and win ugly. Who cares how we win? I'll take anything.

Soooo good.

Me too Reverand a win is a win is a win

Not a bloody honourable loss

A bloody great big win.

Sando just had a slip up in his pressor saying "we will work the pretty boys pretty, we will work the boys pretty hard during the break"

LOVE it

Of course in the first half they were out worked. But Adelaide's bigger problem is talent. They have a few neat footballers but besides Dangerfield, Talia and Sloane who are the legitimate good footballers at that club? Brodie Smith if he could hit a target. And Big Tex of course. But besides that they are very meh

Remember that ridiculous promise to turn us into the hardest team to play against?

It's starting to happen...

Not only are we conceding considerably fewer points, but we're controlling the tempo of the game for longer periods, blocking up stoppages and holding our opponents at half back by strangling their options further upfield.

What happened with Wattsy's back?

Not sure. Looked like a spasm chasing a guy just changed direction then couldn't go at all. Came back and did a couple of ok things but was much better before the injury. Frawley was carrying something as well.

So rapt up in the win that I almost forgot the umpires!

Just pathetic.

Are they so incompetent that they need a crowd of +20,000 screaming in order for them to pick up on free kick. (they almost need to umpire with ear plugs)

If we were Collingwood Maguire would be absolutely fuming and calling for an enquiry into the umpiring in interstate games.

That free that resulted in the Crows goaling and cutting the lead to 15 was a complete momentum changer (think it was Terlich who was tackled and they said he had prior opportunity).

Last week we saw players getting pinned with no prior and yet Adelaide players got away with that today - if they are going to make stupid rule changes then be consistent.

oh and the 'not 15m' calls where disgraceful! just because we kick sideways/backwards does not mean 25m<15m.

Our first win in South Australia after 13 years and 17 straight losses, many of which were in excess of 50 points. The Crows of 2014 may not be world-beaters but for me this is a landmark achievement that will do wonders for the confidence of the team (especially the older ones).

Jamar early , Viney wow . Dawes hard . Pederson . Jkh . And my boy Wattsy is learning . Everyone and well done . Roos sensational . I said we would win . Crows are poor on paper imo and we have been building . Roos is the man from a player management angle and game plan / match day .

Condescending commentry on fox / lack of knowledge and at first look the umpiring .3 free kicks end to end . Seriously .

Party time .

Whats wrong with Frawley?

Negatives I guess

- Potential injuries to Jones, Frawley, Georgiou, Jetta (?cramp) and Viney might be penalised for playing football the way it should be played.

What did you watch it absolutely fair bump

Terlich is very very important for us. Dare I say, our hardest player.

So Demonland posters what about Terlich still worried about his Kicking Some here have no idea

I didn't have access to the telecast, but I don't think I have ever refreshed the superfooty page as much as I did tonight in the last qtr! Great win for the boys. Is great to see that when n jones is down that we now have others who can pick it up and do what he so often does. GO DEES!

    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
