Starting to understand how poorly Pedo was treated by not being selected for many games.

At least now the FD knows he is in our best 22. 

Cost us 2 wins minimum !

Best win of the year.  Most complete performance we have had in a long time and it was so good to watch.

We beat the Dogs up at their own game and made them look second rate.  We are physical, our pressure is unbelievable and we can beat ANYONE in the competition.

If you can find a negative out of that then you are looking in the wrong place.  Everyone played their role and everyone gave something positive.

And great psyche out from Tommy Bugg.  The boy knew what he was doing!

Agree we can beat anyone on our day Wise, and yes we came to play today. 

Wayne Bennett (very successful rugby league coach for those that don't know) was the master of finding negatives in great wins and the positives in defeat. 

My negative would be, and this has been the case all year, and that is too many occasions when we tackle the opponent they are still able to get a handball away. This seems to run through the majority of the side, it may not of cost us today but it's an area that I believe needs addressing. Group tackles are different and something we also do a lot off.

I would add there were a lot of smothers in the 1st qtr which was great to see and really set the tone for the day.

Agreed but too stoked to care . Just glad hes there now. Selection is bloody is tough. So many screamed for O macs head and look at him now. 20/20 Hindsight is a luxury the Fd dont have I suppose.

Naive comment without an understanding of Demon supporters cultural view of attending Colonial Stadium?

Excellent performance by the players on the field. Poor show by the supporters.

Great team effort, but don't underrate the importance of Mitch Hannan 

I agree DS, he looks dangerous anytime he is near the ball. He is fast becoming the missing ingredient in our forward line. I am so excited to see how we look with him there with Hoges and Pedo. Trac will have to spend more time in the midfield to make room... I'm okay with that.

Nah, he is...... but he's our pest and I love it.

I don't know how we change this. The boys are playing great footy, we had just come off memorable win against the Pies, only game in town. Seriously the fans who could've gone but chose not to need the same rocket up their butts that Pederson got (it's clearly worked for him).

Bugg was lucky we won after his taunts and great to see him kick straight for once after his lucky free kick.

Bugg needs to work on his Stevie J routine.

Luck had nothing to do with it, he was a worthy contributor in our dominance over the dogs. Talk the talk if you can walk the walk.

Salem - I honestly think he is the most underrated player at the club. Many think he is decent, but I rate him higher than that.

Neville Jetta says hello. Mind you, it's the rest of the comp who underrates Nev.

The Herald Sun footy writers who keep writing rubbish about Kelly versus Tyson, Salem and Hunt certainly underrate Salem.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

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
