Demonland

Recommended Posts

First half was good.

Second half was bad.

We are definitely were we are meant to be on the ladder, Middle bottom.

Hopefully next season we are in the top bottom of the ladder.

Yes Jane, some people are never happy. Imagine what they would be like if we had lost!!! Not pretty but 4 points.

I sometimes feel like there are people on here who are disappointed when we win. Always focus on the negatives. We could have won by 100 points today yet they would focus on the worst player on the ground.

Jeez some people are never pleased.

Take the win and look forward to next week. This was Brisbane's strongest side they put out all year and I expect them to get a couple of wins this latter part of the year.

I'm happy. I will take a win any day of the week.

With quite a few on here expecting a loss, i don't see the problem of us winning a very ugly game by 24 points.

Where we are and are coming from, you take any win you can, no matter how and against who.

We had 10 players with under 50 games, and 6 first year players (5 if you don't count Jesse)

Damn right Ill take the win, especially with the pessimism coming into the game surrounding Brisbanes so called gun midfield and the return of Stiff Martin

Good games from Dawes and Howe. Good work to the boys. I like the idea of seeing Mac forward. Come draft time we might end up with a Key Defender or 2 instead of a key forward and McDonald could go full time forward. I just don't trust his kicking.

Also - how good is Taylor! And Aish will look good for the dees next year

Positives were better games from Howe and Dawes

I think Harmes will be a player.

Cross is a legend. Vanders has been a great get.

Viney has really come on. Garland and Jetta was good.

Gawn is a beauty.

Very unconvinced by JKH and Lamumba.

I didnt think Lumumba was too bad. Got a fist in at vital times and completely negated McStay. They threw McStay back late in the game to try and mix it up.

I was watching on tv. I thought the commentary team did a great job of making it sound a lot closer than what it really was.

I was starting to panic for a second and then thought 'hang on, we are 4 goals up in a low scoring game.'

We won by 24 in the end. I'm very happy.

It's reasonable to acknowledge it was an ugly win. Viney just described it as such in his post match.

Happy, but not overjoyed,

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?
