North getting belted. If we can get up tonight we move one step closer. I thought finals this year was 0% chance to happen a few weeks back, but who knows now! KEEP FIGHTING DEES!

It's got be driving the boys now. As slim as it is.

North have thumped the Hawks since quarter time. 9 goals to 2 in the last 1.5 quarters. Hawks lead down to two goals. Looks like Norths percentage won't drop off far, if at all if they continue on to win. Very disappointing to watch them come back here!

Sh*t. Didn't realize Saints were a game clear of us and have Richmond and Brisbane. Makes it hard for us to get there... The losses to Essendon and St Kilda come back to bite us. If we'd won any of those 3 winnable games we'd probably be playing finals this year.

Their percentage is so bad it's not a factor and Sydney should beat them tonight.

Their percentage is so bad however.

A lot of the peanuts in the media have overlooked that 3 teams outside the 8 can still make it. Even Derwayne said the best we can finish this year is 9th about twenty times in last week's game. Clueless moron.

I'm sure that he was basing that on the fact he was convinced we'd lose.

You'd think one of their 'stats' people would have corrected him.  And given the media's keenness to make things sound exciting, you'd think they'd carry on about the 3 possible alternatives to North.  Very odd.

The lack of building up the three games today by the media has been a huge oversight.

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    After a very wasteful first half of footy the Demons ended up cruising to a clinical victory over the Saints by 38 points at the MCG and ultimately reclaimed a coveted spot in the Top 4.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
