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.

    Be in shock and blown away like after when we won at Geelong last year

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

    We haven't beaten norf for 10 years, seriously, think of where you were at ten years back. Boggles the mind. We won't win but if we did I would be bloody speechless..

    Forecast is a wet and cold 17 degrees day. Interesting to see if and how this impacts the result.

    Yep. Not going to happen.

    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.

  • Quote

    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.

    Also if we win i will expect to lose next week as we are incapable of winning 2 games in a row, unless it's a meaningless NAB game.

    I will believe and know that we have improved a great deal. Lots of eyes and pressure in the media on poor hogan. I think he will bounce back and kick a bag.go dees.

    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.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
