1) Hail Roos as a genius and say the succession plan is working perfectly

2) Say we've finally turned the corner

3) Talk about our great list and mix of young and old talent

4) Praise the games of all/any of Tyson, Garland, Frost, McDonald, Watts & Hogan

5) Say we can make the 8 this year

6) Probably not post as much as I do after a loss....

I think that covers most of the current state here at Demonland?

I was going to say "me too" but the memory of last sunday morning will prevent that Steve.

You forgot about you and Moonshadow meeting up for a celebratory beer

...would not be surprised at all. This club has proved to be as unpredictable than the new out of bounds rule.

Haha despite the fact it was never an actual offer, the actual comment was I would join him in the back of a police vehicle after I had picked myself up from the gutter outside the cricketer's...

It was actually more a negative than positive.... I'd much rather turn up knowing we would play the same week in week out but unfortunately that's not the Melbourne way....

Yes I think that is still a year or two off.

Unpredictable?  Who?  MFC?  We are the most predictable side in the history of world sports.  We lose.  Bet on it.

Delete my death threats from all 22 players on the day twitter accounts and stop sending them letters written in my blood.

As others have said, not be the least suprised.

We're more then capable, especially as it isn't at Etihad.

If we win i'll go back to believing finals are still a shot.

Well last week leading into the game I was thinking there is no scenario worse than us losing to the Bombers so we've hit our low point, the players should've had a rocket up their asses if not from the coaches at the very least themselves, so who the hell knows what they will produce. 

So in answer to the actual question: kick on after the game in Hobart and probably belt out the song about 100 times!

Agree. Why is it that we put in 'good' performances only after a humiliating loss?

A very noticeable trend under the Roos regime.

Having said that, i still think North will put us to the sword. Hopefully then it will dawn on the playing group just how much further they still have to go.

    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
