Optimist only!

[Josh 1,420]

Don't forget Dean Kent, you can't look sideways at a red and blue jumper without him giving you a bit of what for.

 

Deffinatley a bit of that 'arrogant' Hawthorn streak in what we are building, the playing group drew a line in the sand somewhere and won't be pushed around anymore

 

We started this game and over the next few years I hope we remind people why. 

 

GWS are a worry though...

[jackaub 1,402]

It is looking probable that GWS will finish 4th this year and seriously challenge next

Optimism?

Nathan Jones is meat and potatoes, Viney needs to curb his aggression, Oliver needs a rest, Trengove's slow, Petracca tries to do too much, Brayshaw's always concussed, Tyson is 'meh', Melksham can't kick, vandenBerg can't kick, Lumumba turns it over, Bugg's just a trier, Kennedy's too small, Spencer's unco, Tom is going to Sydney, Oscar is weak, Neal-Bullen isn't good enough, Wagner makes too many mistakes, Hunt doesnt get the ball enough, Harmes is too unreliable, Salem is always sick, Watts doesn't go, Kent plays one good game in four, Frost is not accountable, Vince gets reported too often, Kennedy-Harris's hamstrings are like tissue paper, Weideman is in the seconds, Hulett will never make it, Jetta's had two bad games in a row, Dawes can't clunk a mark, Dunn's gone, Grimes is gone, Newton's gone, Pedersen's gone, Garland's gone, Michie's gone, Roos is just in it for the money, Goodwin is tainted by Essendon, we won't win any more games for the rest of year and by 2018 we'll be the Tasmanian Devils.

All we've got is Gawn.

Come on. Get with the program.

Optimism ends here !

A fantastic example of the sort of negativity that infests the pessimist. 

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume this is an attempt at the lowest form of humour - sarcasm.

If it's not, you have my sympathy for your miserable life.

Optimist only.

 

Are you implying that there is only one?

Only a pessimist would think that.

Au contraire.

I was taking exception to the heading optimist only, it should be optimists only.

Well, yeah, but only an optimist would expect everybody to have perfect grammar!

[The Reverend 1,736]

Reasons to be optimistic:

• We cannot lose this weekend
• We will be well rested and ready to belt the Crows
• Adelaide will be over-confident after beating the Roos.
• It's just so good, so well set up for an upset... 

Can't lose! 

GO DEES!

This is optimism. I like it.

[The Reverend 1,736]

We've cracked 60 posts! This makes me optimistic about the future of Demonland.

 

GO DEMONLAND!

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

I don't think the top eight is set just yet.

It would take a lot to change it but things can change quickly.

[AzzKikA 2,371]

I just love the fact that this year I really have no idea if we will win or lose, not like previous years when it was "How much will we lose by this week?"

 

[Demon Dynasty 17,109]

Am I being negative in suggesting there's only one 'optimist' on all of D'land?

I think he'll be better than his brother, not sure he'll be as good as SOS however.

I optimistically punched us in on the ladder predictor for a win in every game after the bye . . . and we still missed the eight. Stupid optimism.
