Finally get to rejoice now all have gone out.

So happy to be wrong. Impressive effort all around Dees, players, coaches all.

Had to look at the scores more than twice.

Well done Dees....lets keep it up.

Pleasantly gobsmacked :)

Stretch is slowly becoming a weapon. He looks really flashy and evasive and he's not a bad kick either.

Dunn played perhaps his best game ever.

Credit to Dawes, even though he looked a bit proppy he certainly contributed for forward pressure and he held on to a couple of good marks, which is all he needs to do.

Also, one of the biggest surprises was Gawn and Spencer's pairing. Spencer wasn't amazing like Gawn, but he didn't lower his colours or look lost out there

Don't want to be the one that jinxes it but how has Demonland not crashed yet?

Well done nasher and others.

Last week was more furious with the players than I have been for years. This week, they can get stuffed because it's the first time I've missed a Vic game I could have been at in years - so of course we won!!!

Brayshaw is a complete footballer. Amazing.

We kicked a big score but we won the game in defence - which shows what the best Paul Roos coached side can do.

Best thing is there's still plenty of improvement and blokes to come back in!

Still pinching myself!

I can't f-ing wait to play Carlton if we keep this brand of footy up. Nothing bruise free about it. I hope when we play the lions that Viney and co hammer that [censored] Mitch Robinson.

We are finally a hard at it team!

I went to create the "Changes for Next Week" thread and couldn't do it. Need to let this one settle a bit before I start thinking about which 1-3 players will be very stiff (depending on Garland and vandenBerg with Hogan a given).

I'm still relatively speechless. I never thought before the game it was going to be some sort of run of the mill belting like many were posting, and I knew we had the midfield cattle to compete there, but I never in a million years could have foreseen us kicking 113 points, especially given Dawes didn't kick one.

I haven't been able to watch anything except the highlights, but from what I was able to glean off patches on the radio and the articles written so far, as well as the stats, our midfield is finally coming together. Gawn's presence is no coincidence to this, I'm sure, and we've now got all of Jones, Vince, Viney and Tyson playing together at once. Then when you have a 22 playing together, you can get the job done anywhere, anytime.

The future is bright, and today showed that the present (i.e. 2015) does not have to be the dull result last week suggested.

I wonder if we may have 'turned a corner' today?

The best thing was that with our midfield so on top, our makeshift forward line managed to function as well. Spencer, Gawn, ANB and Matt Jones all made very valuable contributions in addition to the "genuine" forwards in Dawes and Garlett. The question on everyone's lips before the game was, "how are we going to score?", and in the end we did it more easily than we have all year.

The midfield is everything really.

Made it home, good to see a lot less pessimism on the boards than before the game. Fantastic game to watch and great to see a good turn out of Dees supporters down the highway, bearing in mind 28.000 was the biggest attendance at KP this season, sure Enright would account for a few more Cats fans but there was a good smattering of Red and Blue around the ground from the Players stand to the Gary Ablett Terrace. I'm sick of the BS "they only let 200 of us in" whenever we play there. That was a load of crap Sam Newman got stuck into us about over 10 years ago and it's stuck - the facilities then were absolute crap, unlike now,

We'll see a few more wins this year, we need to remember we got smashed by Fremantle, Sydney and Hawthorn and were in winnable positions in other losses. These wins are no longer upsets.

    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.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
