Things I'll be watching closely -

- Tom McDonald's kicking

- Jack Watts' intensity

- Clayton Oliver (just in general since its my first look at him)

- Dom Tyson's form, remembering his 2014 standard

- The extent that St Kilda rely on their older guys

- Trying to spot even a single St Kilda player I'd want for supercoach. Weird, I can find heaps of Demons ^_^

When we win it will make it two games in a row at EddieHurd, and four in a row overall. Let's hope the press don't read too much into this and blow out our odds.

Changed the image SWYL   gone all trendy now beard has waxed ends on moustache    having pre game breakfast at Arcadia in Gertrude St     perhaps a bit too clever with comment     God has sent a commandment down the mountain?     back on topic   if we match the effort intensity and competitiveness from last two games it may lead to win   agree on no injury missive though

You're being too hard on yourself Satyriconhome. I don't think anybody is going to accuse you of being clever.

While a win is important, one only has to look back to NAB 3 last year when we lost to a bunch of fill ins and then responded with a round 1 win.

Having said the they're at full strength and we're missing 5 or 6 from our best 22, so a win would be a good confidence booster.

I'm afraid my cleverness has been acknowledged publicly and not from behind the safety of a keyboard

No ANB is a bit of a disappointment. If Stretch and a couple of others had a hit out yesterday, he may come in. Or Hulett?

T'was a better time when men knew their place - there were the butlers and the buttlees.

And an oversupply of spinster flappers up for a jolly good round of twining yarn in the dark.

What would be a decent crowd number at the game?

Don't know ET, but whatever it is it will be about 70% Stk fans...sigh

Our fans won't come back to watch games until we start winning in the season proper.  Its mainly die hard fans who pay attention to off-season training and NAB games.

And, its a long weekend...our non-diehard fans will be holidaying somewhere!

Need to break this St kilda hoodoo.

Our last win in 2006 and first loss in 2007 ... I see them as the start of the black hole we have been sucked into for the past 10 years ...infuriating we haven't even beaten them in the roos era

Mentally as a club we need to break this hoodoo sooner rather than later...today would be a great start imo 

Then comes North Melbourne.....

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
