Biggest game in years.

Win and we stay in the finals hunt, lose and its likely over.

Posted

I'm remarkably relaxed this morning, which is most unusual on game day, and even more so with so much riding on the result for us.  I don't quite know how to interpret this new gameday feeling, but I'm putting a positive spin on it, and assuming it's a good omen.  Illogical I know, but Dees by 9 points in a low scoring affair.

I reckon we will give it a red hot crack, but there is still a big class difference between us and the Swans. Most of our class is visible and emerging, but still in the developing potential stage. The Swans have class on every line and a midfield that is huge in body size. 

Maybe the Swans lowest ranked 5 players are not as good as they used to be and our lowest ranked 5 are much better than they have been in years, but I can still see a 30 point loss coming up. 

Gawn, Hogan and TMac are our vital three. And Buddy is in the form of his life and could murder us.

If wet, I would like to see smarter wet weather play from us. I hope we learned something from the Hawks the other week. 

We tend not to learn from those experiences. Sorry for the pessimism,but I think in the wet, on their dung heap, the Swans will be too good. Hope to hell I am wrong though.

Pity that we hadn't learned when we took on the Bombers, as a win would have us in the 8 now. Also if North hadn't used their own umpires in Tassie, we would have won that as well and been entrenched in the 8 at this point of the season. 

Oh well if my Auntie had balls.

Raining now near the ground. Steady but not heavy yet.

A bit of light comedy to get things rolling.

Enjoy!

 

I found the footage of Jim Stynes, Dean Bailey and Liam Jurrah a bit sad actually......amazing win tho. Lets hope the boys can stand up today.

I'll be heading back from a non-eventful weekend at Buller and will be watching it on Foxtel Go sparingly as my 4G drops in and out.

Dees by 27.

Hopefully Michie comes in for Dawes or Oscar given the weather.

Miche plays very well in the wet, good in close and his disposal remains a strength.

When the SCG are charging $5.90 for chips and $7 for a pie the win was in vain.

Hawks kicked along the ground in the wet, Swans will do like wise, our train of thought will be pick up the ball and handball.  That is the Roos style which is hard to change on game day.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
