At the g m team walikng off after a group meeting in the middle.  jack viney.  Walking ok with some type of support strap on upper foot. Seemed upbeat

A huddle in the middle 1.5 hours before the game, is a tad unusual :rolleyes:

Revving each other up and getting into the right head space, I guess...would love to have been a fly on the wall, so to speak. 

 

Good to here Jack is walking ok.   May he play again soon.

My band is playing in the Sydney suburb of Engadine (south end of that godforsaken area known as "the Shire") which for me is a 45 minute drive.  We start playing at 2pm but I have to get there earlier to make sure everything is ready to go. So, by the time we have played and I've managed to drive back to civilisation, the game will be over. 

Crowd gonna be giving each other strange looks when the band is playing Lynyrd Skynyrd and you break out with "Its a grand old flag" during your last set. Just remember to take out your game day radio earphone before you start playing.

Swine flu that could kill a grandma has returneth - but, much to Ailsa's disgust, dragging bones in & can't miss it. Apologies in advance if I'm within transmission range. 

Into the breach dear friends.

Do the world a favor, sit in the Filth cheer squad and cough, sneeze and spray your bug of death as far and wide as you can......

Peter Jackson just interviewed on SEN

What an impressive spokesperson for the club.. takes and speaks no BS.

The standout point made was that the club appears on target to post a million dollar profit this year?

Have a great time all you Demons going to the G - I can't make it today, probably a good thing as I'm so nervous, I could puke!

Gotta go today, boys, gotta go today ❤️?

I can so relate to all of this. I was 15 in 1987, still remember how amazing getting to the finals felt.

And I too know that the world won't end today if the worst happens. There are bigger things going on- believe it or not. Like the fact my father isn't around this time, and all sorts of other things too.

Still got excitement building within though. Good to see many other Dees fans on the train.

Footy does bind us together. Generation to generation. 

 

Go Dees

IMO if we lose we miss finals - Adelaide will either have nothing to play for (If Geelong wins) or, alternatively, might even want to finish 2nd to get an easier finals schedule (e.g. avoiding Sydney or drawing Richmond).

But our destiny is in our hands and we should really be able to win this game. We play well against Collingwood, we've won our last two under similar pressure, and we have a strong side on the park.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    2024 Player Reviews: #35 Harry Petty

    Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    2024 Player Reviews: #40 Taj Woewodin

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.

    The clever small was unable to cement a place in the Melbourne midfield and spent most of his time this year with the Casey Demons where he finished equal fourth in its best & fairest.

    Bowey’s season was curtailed early when he sustained a shoulder injury that required surgery in the opening game against Sydney. As a consequence, he was never able to perform consistently or at anywhere near his previous levels.  Date of Birth: 12 September 2002 Height: 175cm Games MFC 2024: 14 Career Total: 61 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total: 6
