I have a theory. It isn't particularly revolutionary but here goes Backs. Probably as good as any in the league. We also have some depth too. Whilst we all would prefer to have Jetta playing I don't

Agreed. If everything goes right we could well win 10. Given we could have won 6-8 last year. It's all about confidence. If we can string a two or three together who knows.

We're not better than Collingwood I'm afraid...they were hard at it yesterday and Figjam has them on the right track. We are better than:

Bears

Suns

Blues

Tigers

Saints

Doggies

and maybe the Eagles

Agree - Collingwood were good yesterday and I think on the right track in terms of list management, culture and game plan. Wouldn't be surprised if they finish 5-6th and play deep into September.

I reckon we will win 6-8 including matching it with and beating at least one of Geelong, North and Westcoast - teams which have bullied us since we have been a rabble.

I think the pass mark for this season is a percentage btw 80-90% and being a contender for finals 2/3rds into the season. This is important as it means we have something to play for in the last 7 or 8 games.

We are not as good as Collingwood,Brisbane ,Geelong or North.

We haven't beaten them in years.

We are nowhere near Sydney,hawks,freo,port.

We are probably the equal of the dogs.

We are 5 goals worse than the crows.

We are better than Carlton .

Yet to prove we can do the Saints.

The gw scums are heading for the eight.

West coast are another one we can never beat.

No offence to the OP but this is a ridiculous conversation to be having in round 4 with our opponents having been GC, GWS (who pansed us), Adelaide, and the Tigers.

We are an up and coming team, that is all. We still have along way to go before we can start talking about who we're better than. On their best day the Tigers are still probably better than us.

I have to agree.

We must be the worst group of supporters at keeping the lid on our team.

Our best is good enough to push any side and beat most, but our worst is bad enough to lose to St Kilda, Brisbane or any other bad side.

Hate to reduce the impact of your otherwise good post, but it's round 4 not round 3.

what a bunch of old misery guts.

Dare to dream, Demons, Dare to dream....

Believe me, having seen our start to the year I'm dreaming much bigger this year than the last 8 combined.

I have much more hope, but that doesn't mean all of a sudden we're the 8th best side in the AFL.

Can you blame some of us though? So starved of success.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
