Sorry I had to gloat & say I called it... my prediction yesterday morning :P

 

 

I said it in the preview thread.... Call me mad but I think we are a real chance today. I've said on this forum numerous times, I said at the start of the year we'd beat the Hawks once... The effort & performance last time means we wont be fearful of them today.

I can sense that this young group just have this feeling of "todays the day we arrive". We were down last week so we should be up & about if our inconsistent form rings true. I can just see us clicking today, I dont know why...

We have a pretty good blend of toughness, pace and firepower. If we get on a roll next year we could do some damage. Thank Christ they don't play GF's at Etihad.

Oh well, GameDay's a shocker anyway- they would've just fawned about bloody Cyril anyways. 

I'll wait for channel 9 footy show. Absorbing/gathering all the media I can to help bathe in this experience. 

Happy Sunday morning!

Roosy was saying in the post match presser that we won't be playing finals, but to my reckoning we're three games out of the finals and North Melbourne in 8th and three games clear of us face Hawthorn, Sydney and GWS in the last three rounds - all tough games. Whilst they're 9% clear of us, three drubbings and I believe we're still a mathematical chance? Or am I missing something.

Amazing to be thinking this way at Rnd 20...

I think we can still make finals if we win all 3 and North lose all 3 and make up the percentage difference. Tough 3 games for North too. Dare to dream. Highly unlikely, but......

Yep.

2005 all over again. 

The situation is giving me ideas about next years season slogan - "No more if only"

The problem is we're relying on North to lose each game, which looking at that is quite probable. But they also need to cop a few beltings because we're about 10% behind percentage wise.

We then need to win the final 3, as we've seen this year we're not very consistent. Hopefully yesterday was the start of something special, hopefully we back it up next week and beat Port, a percentage boosting win would be handy.

Very true.

All the positive change in the club over the last four years stems from his leadership.  Was great to see him standing alongside Roos in the rooms waiting for the players.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
