45 seconds on HIGH should do it...

The same way you cancel anything Pro.

Ring up said organisation and tell them to stick their [censored] (telephone service, insurance policy, electricity contract etc) up where the sun doesn't shine.

Anyway no need for such bitter thoughts, I am confidently heading off to the G and hoping to see Jeffy kick 3 or 4.

Straight out of the Richmond supporter play book, I like it!


Hope we work a few of their key backs over again today in Rowe and their next best defender  like last week  running them up the ground , if Wietering plays back id expect no less and consider playing a foward as an absolute decoy .  We are a tall short today so we need to run run run and get hands on the footy first second and third . Bang 

Not worried about putting in a lackluster performance, those days are over, we were unwavering for the JLT series and Goody is just as much a mental master as he is a dynamic coach.
He will get the best out of the players and with so many spots up for selection there is no room for complacency.
I want a win today (Obviously) but I want 4 quarters of footy, I want us to step on the throat and be unrelenting, I want to give the blues fanbase depression.
Our group of kids play with such swagger and lack of respect I think that they will want to [censored] a team, winning isn't good enough today, we need to tear out their heart and show it to their cheer squad. ferocious attack on the footy, dynamic ball movement, deadly skills by foot, and white hot speed.

#Riseup

We all want a win but they are still a young developing team. There are going to be good and bad days.  We need patience.  

 

I will be thinking of a good mate and passionate BlueBagger who lost his battle with prostate cancer in late December 2015. Still hope we thrash em!

Saints nearly rolling Eagles in Perth, is good formline for us.  

Yes I suppose that is true. In fact Saints were by far a better team and the " home umpies "  did the job on them last night.

Sorry to hear that mate, never too early or late to get checked.

 

Two wins gives us the sort of momentum that sets up a good season. That's why i argue this is much more imperative now because of what we did last week.

So important to build on positives......

On a train city bound, lunch in Richmond before heading to the ground.

Same with me, some joint in Swan St, along with some Blues and Dees friends, then onto the game. For once this game time works well for me.

Will I recognise you by the turban?

Could this day drag on any [censored] longer?

No upside in this game.

Win and we have beaten the wooden spooners. Win easily and some will say we were not tested. Win badly and ... well you know what will be said.

Lose and all hell will break loose.

Bring on 6pm and give me a 60 point lead at half time ... please

Being an MCC member I've never had a reserved seat and just assumed it would be a season membership.

Being 2-0 is upside enough for me.  I'm sure there will be moments of frustration today, but beating Carlton by 5 goals will send me home happy.

I'm going to the game today and looking forward to seeing us dominate all over the ground.

Agreed! I think we are really ready to smash a team into the ground 80 plus point win would be great 

for some of us , it really simple 

I just want to win , no fuss , no BS  just win

Being 2-0 up and Hawthorn being 0-2 would be bliss

Only 2 and a half long, painful hours to go.  

I've considered getting a life, but nah.

A what?

 

I only realised a couple of hours ago that daylight savings has ended. So that added another hour to this purgatory.

Yes different set up for 8 years ive been paying by the month helps keep the gal of my back -false economy

An 80 point win would be the icing on the cake for sure, but I'm still not convinced we're at that point in our journey as a side yet.  We are still learning how to win these sort of games, so to roll the Blues and to roll them relatively comfortably would be a big step in the right direction.

Gee 15:20 is a balls starting time.  Feels like I'm sitting around all day waiting for it.

It's on at 1.20 here, don't worry I won't post score updates and spoil the game.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
