Gee I love this club!

Positives everywhere!  Leadership was brilliant tonight - Viney, Jones, McDonald, Lewis etc. all stood up brilliantly tonight.  

Clayton Oliver is quickly becoming not just the best midfielder at our club but one of the best in the competition.  What a player.

Petracca into the midfield changed the game for us as well and hopefully he can spend more time in there in the coming weeks.

Big shout out to the backline who, with help from the midfield, kept the Crows to just 66 points.  This is a side who regularly spank teams with huge scores, yet their forwards barely got a look in all night.

I could go on and on and on.... but I think I'll go and watch the replay!

DEMONS!

Viney is back, and brilliant coaching especially putting TMac in the forward line.

The boys really wanted it and they got it!

Goodwin also showed tonight that he can react and change to suit the game - his move of McDonald forward was terrific and adding Petracca to the midfield was a masterstroke.  He isn't afraid to change things up and we are reaping the rewards because of it.

It also shows how much the players trust him as well.  Great stuff all round.

Great win but just goes to show that's it all between the ears for the boys. 

We lose against teams which we should win against and win against teams we should lose against. 

If we can fix that on a consistent basis the the competition is our oyster.

What was that?!

Kept Adelaide to 66 - their lowest score at Adelaide Oval since Round 9 2015 against Fremantle (minor premiers and defensive kings that year). Indeed, that's Adelaide's second lowest score at the Adelaide Oval ever.

What an incredible win.

We're out of the 8 at the end of this round but we'll only be a game behind 4th (which is a Geelong team that is average at best).

Clearly, we have the capacity to be a dominant side this year.

Cannot wait to watch the replay!

Un(bloody)believable.  I'm hoarse from watching the game on TV for God's sake. So, so proud to of our boys.  Courage, determination and desire to stick to the game plan.  We found a way to win, and then we went on with it!  I'll be wearing my member's cap to bed tonight.

Oliver's goal is one of the best I've ever seen because it was 100% deliberate.

Up there with Carey's in 1999.

A banana is usually hit with the foot swinging back into the field, Clarry just decided to aim his foot towards the stands and hit it so hard that it curled like an absolute mother!

Well 99% on here wanted Kent in for JKH and whilst the latter did kick a telling goal it sounded like Goodwin may have been vindicated somewhat (Kent didn't play a great deal better than JKH).

Picking up Hibbo also Goodwin's choice by the sounds of it. Just need Trekkers and Gus to make a move.

    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

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.

    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
