If we cant beat this weak, under strength  filth team missing at least 8 of their best 22 with a full strength team minus Viney, , we don't deserve to play finals.

They have got the home ground advantage though! ?

We've picked close to our best team, everything to play for this weekend, and have improved significantly in a year we've had lots of injuries to key players & suspensions.

We are due to play well, and should put the Pies to the sword. Plus Eddie not firing Bucks this week, actually helps us, as occasionally you see teams put in a big effort farewelling the coach.

Still nervous, can't help it after following Dees for fifty years, but hoping for an enjoyable and relaxing last quarter tomorrow, looking forward to finals footy.

James Munro gave Kirby a bath in the last VFL match we played them. Munro stuck to him like glue, Kirby lost the plot,  gave away numerous free kicks and had no impact on the game. Nev will make minced meat of Kirby

Balls, you're spot on with respect to Dunn - the comment was made by Taylor Adams just before QB game, not by Lynden. I share your views on his leaving the club, and always look forward to watching him unload a torp from full back.

Also agree with your views on Howey - he left for a life kicking goals in a successful club and finds himself where he was with us four years ago. Stuck in the backline of a not-good-enough club. He can suck a bag of dicks.

Your last line had me pissing myself laughing in the fish and chip shop where I'm picking up my Friday lunch. People are looking at me funny ????

Wow, he really does have a grudge against the MFC. Has he picked us once this season?

I hope someone calls him out on social media.

@Petraccattack

@Deemented Are Go!

Gents, I did look up some of the earlier rounds this year and there was an instance where he tipped us.  But only one and certainly not any time in the second half of the season!   So he definitely has an issue!!  Collectively, the Dogs have lots of issues I guess!

For all those in attendance tomorrow, please remember at the appropriate point in the game (assuming things go to plan!!) to:

- ask Taylor Adams if this is what a successful club's footy looks like

- ask Dunny and Howie if it's enjoyable playing for a successful club

- ask if it's time for "Press Red for Ed"

- ask those in the black and white around you if they're enjoying THEIR grand final.

You'll hear me on lvl 1 of the MCC!

Kirby in for Reid. Leads the VFL goal kicking, has a lot of hype around him in terms of x-factor. Small forward, was very overweight at the start of the year. Should be easily shut down by our nimble backline. 

Expand  

So we can expect him to kick five .

For those who dismissed the prospects of Adelaide not going as hard as possible against West Coast, they've seen fit to pull Walker and Talia out of the selected side.  Don't leave anything to chance Dees.....

Yep. They have written off winning perth. If it's close at 3/4 time they'll roll over in the last to avoid injury etc. Over to you Demons

Wasn't it Adams who said Dunn was happy to be at a successful club. I don't think Dunn said it as such. Let Dunn do his thing. That'll involve a couple of long bombs, some spoiling and a couple of short passes to Melbourne players who will then have shots on goal.

Expand  

When I was watching the Pies game last week Dunn took a good saving mark close to full back in the third quarter when the game was in the ballance... and then proceeded to kick it straight to Dangerfield ... who then let him off the hook and sprayed what was a fairly simple set shot.  Anyways, he has some good recient form in this area.  It could also be true (and let's hope it's not) that he could bob up at a critical time and bomb a clutch goal from outside 50 like he has for us a few times going back, he's just that sort of player.

If GWS lose tomorrow night, Adelaide have absolutely nothing to play for as they'll have top spot sown up.

If GWS win, it's in Adelaide's best interest to beat WCE as they'll reclaim top spot. Top spot guarantees you a Friday night prelim and hence 1 extra day's break for the big dance.

Wow, Crows resting two stars.

This is frightening - if we lose tomorrow and we are in real trouble. Every Demon supporter in the land will be tuning in Sunday to the Eagles Crows match in total fear.

Beat the Pies, for the love of god.

Not surprised the Crows have done that, at least they gave us due notice!

I'm super emotional about tomorrow.

Nervous. Excited. I think they call that anxious?

Thinking of the siren ringing and knowing we're going to September..it makes me emotional, almost to the point of tears. 

I think we'll get it done. And comfortably.

    TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator attended training out at Casey Fields to bring you the following observations from Preseason Training. GATOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS There were 5 in the main rehab group, namely Gawn, Petracca, Fullarton, Woewodin and Lever.  Laurie was running laps by himself, as was Jefferson.  Chandler, as has been reported, had his arm in a sling.  Lindsay did a bit of lap running later on. Some of the ''rehab 5'' participated in non contact drills and b

    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

    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
