This is our most important match in a decade.

I'm sick of the fact that we have not won a game at Etihad in a decade...

Sick of the fact that we haven't beaten North in the same amount of time...

Sick of the fact that we don't win two in a row...

The time is now...

Like Richmond last week we need to make a stand...

Gut running, hard contested footy...

North will fold faster then Superman on laundry day...

Finally as a club we need to say... "Stuff there rest... we're here to be the best!'

its bad enough not beating any team for 9 years, but North? Such an average boring club

This is the hoodoo ill take most joy in ending

Wow, it has really been that long.

I have vivid memories of games against North many years ago, as far back as the Daniher years, where everything seemed to be in our favour but somehow we just couldn't win.

A lot of the time it came down to their 'really tall talls', who on the day would just be able to clunk marks and kick straight. It troubles me a little that we are still a bit light-on for genuinely tall defenders (unless Fitzpatrick or Oscar comes along very quickly).

That said, the last time we beat them Nathan Thompson kicked seven, put them in front but then had to drag himself to the bench for a chunk of the final quarter, exhausted. As much as we won that game in the final minutes, I'm hoping this time we have something better than "wait until their key forward has worn himself out from kicking so many goals".

North are brittle, like 'little boy' chalk

the Dees and young Viney, will teach them a lesson, getting into them like Mrs Marsh's liquids...

I agree, this 'knowing where the match is being played' stuff has to stop now

Yeah we should be more like Hawthorn and not know where we're playing next week. Works for them.

I'll meet you at bay 13 at Etihad! I'll bring the radio in case its not there.

We play NM at the MCG.

Sure, let's get positive: so then let's kill off two of the monkeys on our backs this week, (NM and successive wins) and the other the following week v Dogs at the Doglands.

Would we have some happy campers then??

gotta think of things 'that will get in' SWYL, into they're heads... irritating things they won't like. & do not think these things don't get back to who they are about. they do.

the roos are soft, in the head, they are fragile, they are blue, & they crack, Mrs Marsh is just the tonic that will irritate any young hopping mad Roo.

& her liquid does get in, see the add.

    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.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

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. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    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
