Demonbracket 50 - Celebrating 50 Fruitless Years

Happy with the numbers considering it was held over 1 day rather than 2 (or more for the games that went across weekends).

Can you tell if there were similar unique votes though Adam?

Yes, but I don't bother looking as long as the vote total isn't massively increased. Not all that concerned by somebody voting once or twice but the peanut who tried to stack it by voting 150 times gave themselves away through lack of subtlety. Anyway, the quarter final votes are in and it's congratulations to the following winners:

Robert Flower 107 (65%) d. David Schwarz 57 (35%)

David Neitz 146 (89%) d. Jeff White 18 (11%)

Allen Jakovich 85 (52%) d. James McDonald 79 (48%)

Jim Stynes 128 (78%) d. Todd Viney 36 (22%)

Which leaves us with the following semi-finals, with all the bookies pre-tournament favourites still involved. Voting is open from now until 7pm Monday night, with the Grand Final to follow on Tuesday.

Robert Flower vs David Neitz

Allen Jakovich vs Jim Stynes

Loved the bonus video, Demon Apocalypse. Was a bit sad that it was 'to be continued' but realised that I had seen end before and It's not pretty

Agreed. I really miss those "Facebook Comment of the Week" videos. They were therapy for me at the time and truly the highlight of the Neeld era. They almost made the whole Neeld era worth it.

When's the DVD coming out Adam?

I miss the videos, what I don't miss is trawling the Facebook page for the comments that went along with them.


Brisbane Roar sack coach after 5 losses in 6 games this year on the back of two premiership A league cups in 12 and 13 plus coach of the year award. It's Norm Smith all over again! Maybe the curse will be transferred?

Brisbane teams can't help themselves, they love the bandwagon.

After that odd interlude into #aleaguechat it's my duty to inform you that the favourites have triumphed in the semi-final, and that the electoral commission has certified the following results

Robert Flower 122 (60%) d. David Neitz 81 (40%)
Jim Stynes 120 (59%) d. Allen Jakovich 83 (41%)
The winners of the special challenge match were The Defenders and Ray Biffin took home the 10 man over the top first round losers battle royale.
GRAND FINAL FIXTURE (vote here)
#1 seed Robert Flower vs #2 seed Jim Stynes
+ third place playoff and special challenge matches.
 

Nice boost in voting numbers for the semi finals.

Good fun thanks Adam.

Friends, it is my pleasure to announce that the results have been certified by our government supervisor

B3RaF-TCMAADq2j.jpg

and that we have a winner... But first the preliminary matches:

In the Survivor Series the Brothers (James McDonald, Anthony McDonald, Gerard Healy and Greg Healy) d. The Unrelated (Glenn Lovett, Brett Lovett, David Williams and Luke Williams) by 120-43

In the Battle Royale your favourite ex-Demon at another club in 2015 was Jared Rivers with 31% of the vote from Stefan Martin (bless you all) with 25% and Scott Thompson with 17%.

The third place playoff was an absolute ball-burster, with the Plate Final almost shared as Allen Jakovich nudged David Neitz out by a score of 82-81

And the result you've all been waiting for. In the final, Robert Flower was voted your favourite Demon of the last 50 years after a narrow 83-80 victory over Jim Stynes.

Thanks everyone for your support of the tournament and your 2120 votes throughout. For the sake of probity the final results in all matchups can be seen here.

See you in January/February for a return to the fourth installment of the traditional Demonbracket format for current players only, and in November 2018 for our next 'all time' ballot #demonbracket54

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
