Who here is going?

As a local myself I'd normally be there but working west of Alice today. Raining out here, rain almost always heads west, might be a wet second half?

Think we will be to quick for them through the middle and forward jeffy to kick 5 win by 10

If we are to look at the game, I would say this is an opportunity for us as I don't like our chances the next week. We will be coming back from stinking hot Alice Springs against the reigning three time premiers. As much as I would like to see us roll those p****s, I'm not sure that we are there yet. 
A 7-4 record would be better but if you look at where we are at as a footy team, 6-5 would put us on track for what I would reasonably expect us to achieve as a team this year.

The same old stupid cliche is bashed out year after year by people who nothing beyond their own backyards. Currently a stunning cool day in Alice with a chance of a shower later.

A MUST WIN GAME TODAY ... Port, Crows and Demons will battle for that 8th position. Top 7 is locked in for me. 

If the Demons lose, back in the 9th to 13th pack.

Can Gawn ruck all day... he looked tired last week !!!

If we win and Adelaide lose (possible against GWS) then we will be a game clear in the top eight.

Port won't be in finals contention. Imo Richmond will move up. Port is average. Makes today even more important.

I just hope we show up today. If our fast small forwards like Garlett, Kennedy and Kent have another invisible stinker like the Saints match, we'll comfortably lose. We're also certainly pushing the boundaries with such a young team every week, it's going to be inconsistent and you have to understand that means occasional losses to teams that aren't great.

Hopefully Jetta is well rested and does a number on Wingard. Hopefully we don't miss Oliver's hands too much, and hopefully our sloppy disposal last week was just a result of playing bad competition.

Go Dees!

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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.
