I shall hunt picket fence down and give him a jolly good flogging,

It has finally happened. This is why I have been apprehensive when opening this thread.

Are you planning on instagraming it if it happens?

I reckon we'll roll North....

If you count losing by less than ten goals as rolling them I agree. Me I'll take a loss by less than 5 goals as a win.

be AMAZED. 

North play fast footy with good footskills and accountable footy. They apply pressure and create turnovers. Player for player they are not better. But their style and skills are better... with no passengers. 

You sure about that?  I'm pretty sure their personnel are a fair way better than ours across the board.

Is this one of those reverse pschology question? If we lose we should leave the side in Tasmania for ever. If we win I wouldn't get my hopes up as the Dees are known for their consistent disappointments.

Sounds odd but I would be a little worried if we win, worried in the sense that we would obviously still be so far from a consistent side that any sort of sustained success is further from our grasp than I thought it was. I would be happy to be proved wrong and have them come out with the same effort it will take to beat the roos in the following rounds but we all know how unlikely that is.

Pick up my first division Tattslotto win, because IMO, they are the same odds of happening.

And treat your fellow Demonlanders to a Demonland convention in Waikiki with a portion of your winnings, Mr Leg?

They are coached better too

It is the only area in which we are consistent.

    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

    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?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
