Eggzactly also they should be sent back there.....

A Richmond mate invited me to join him at the "battle of the co-tenants". I pointed out that I would be attending a game on Friday night, but it is between a landlord and a one of their feral tenants.

9 changes to the side that played Richmond last year.

Out. Pedersen, Riley, Bail, Terlich, Viney, Toumpas, Gawn, Matt Jones, Grimes

In. Lumumba, Newton, vandenBerg, Garlett, Kent, Hogan, Jetta, Brayshaw, Michie

A different side, a stronger side. And we actually beat them last time (despite 28 scoring shots to 21).

Interesting. I reckon they are all improvements except Viney who we will miss.

Don't kid yourself though, last time Richmond's kicking was woeful and kept us in the game.It won't happen again and this year the Toiges have kicked some good scores 137 against the Lions and 105 against the Blues. Only 66 against the Dogs though who tackled well and kept the ball inside 50....

Bulltish, Saty. The thought was if we went tall, it would be Pedo, and if we went for a mid, it'd be Michie.

I was being sarcastic Billy, the main gist of the posts on here was the bemoaning of Bail's abilities, in comparison to every other AFL player who had ever played the game

Great effort from the Kimberley Coast, nor'wester! Hope it turns out to be well worth your while.

Taking my girlfriend to her first game.

A filipina with no idea about the game, except it makes her boyfriend shout at the TV a lot.

Bought her a guernsey and hat so she can look the part, and looking for the membership tent to sign her up also.

I really hope we dont kok it up, or i have no chance of ever dragging her back to a game.

Where do the Dees fans congregate in an away game? My first game since we rolled the drug cheating scum in the night game a few years back.

Catch up for a beer mate...

That's what we need to do.

Mostly at Punt Rd and some at Waverly for the most part I believe. An issue to address is to reverse the lop sided win loss differential. 30 more wins to them is nauseating.

Richmond's defection from Punt Rd in 1965 coincided with our mostly defective performances from this year.

Really excited for the game tonight. Spending my whole day of uni reading demonland. Already picked out some warm clothes and my best scarf.

Watching the rain roll over from the East on the bureau. Could be a bit of rain - would make our lack of a second legitimate ruck less of a problem in slippery conditions.

Hoping JKH is the sub. Brayshaw to be given a full game and to win a rising star nom after his 15 tackles.. Vanders to avoid the vest purely from a supercoach sense.

While Im confident we can cause an upset, I am worried about being lethargic after last week's long quarters and high stoppage numbers.

And we wonder why education standards have fallen so far in this country..

What if the course is Psychology???

This place would be a great place to read if studying psychology...

Breggsy being worried is being a melbourne supporter. worry or anxiety never goes away. only a flag will fix that although there will still be many worrying that we will fall back down to the bottom again. As far as education standards, demonland offers far more than any tertiary institution. it offers a full syllabus on human behaviour and life skills generally. on demonland you have the rich tapestry of life with more characters than an Agatha Christie novel. Your time is well spent.

No. I can't see the games very well these days and spend most of the time watching the big screens. I buy my membership but usually watch it on TV. I get to the Casey games because the outer is a great spot to watch and I can see better in the open. Plus Casey have Bacon Rolls.

Just got talked into going. Looking for an epic contest even if I watch the big screens.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
