God damn that feels good, even if it is only pre season. I have 6 hours to pack trailer and do a dump run and blower vac ground yard. Ample time as long as the beer fridge stays closed until at least lunch time (which is no guarantee)

Due to a promotion I have most weekend off now so it's gonna be on.

Go Dee's!

The simple joys of life.... footy and a trip to the tip.... Bring it on !!!

..... and the weekend brisket just went in the smoker. only other job this morning is a run to my local brewers to refill the kegs and it be perfect for celebrating a win over the Roos!

:cool:
 

We have to break this psychological stranglehold this low rent team have over us. We did it in style against the Saints at Etihad last year. Now's the time to do the same to the kangas. Let's dine on fillet of skippy. 

Hammering down at my place just across the Derwent from Kingston. Expected to clear around lunchtime. Looking forward to knocking back a few tins on the hill and hopefully a photo with Maxy after the game.

 

Can confirm it is pizzing down in Hobart city at the moment, and from all reports once the rain clears the wind will start up. Bloody typical, it’s hardly rained all summer and aside from last week the weather has been sensational, and every time melbourne come down it’s terrible.

Anyway I’ll be in the can bar drinking $12 mid strength beers. Go dees!

Kudos to all the Melbourne supporters attending another Hobart game against North,  even after the last 2 heart breakers against them.

That first one when we lost by a kick and Lindsay &@&$ Thomas of all people made the spoil that stopped us having a shot after the siren. That was torture. 

At long last something approaching real footy is only a few hours away, and I can't wait  to see if all the positive track reports stand up to scrutiny under match conditions with real opposition.  Go Dees!

You should add Maxy to your “favourite players” before you ask him for a photo!

Beating Nought in a practise game counts for nothing over the last 12 years

All of a sudden the JLT games are looking a lot more appealing after the AFLX shenanigans last week. Even moreso now they have ditched the supergoal. Actually feels like proper footy.

Have a good-ee, Josh. Wish I was in the vicinity for a few dozen, pre-game Tassy oysters on the dock, a bowl of chowder and pub crawl to the ground, with the good wishes of James Boag. Ah, the Tasmanian air! Carna Dees.

Too right! Supergoals are a killer and mess with the game.

It would be good to win, but a win in the JLT Cup won't break the hoodoo.

Demons beat Norf last time they played in the pre-season cup, then SNAFU. Lost to Norf in the season proper. I hate Norf. And their coach ... and all their players other than Ben Brown.

Beating anyone in the pre season series has always counted for nothing, Mr. Brightside. 

I'm just looking forward to some proper footy being played, seeing us jag a few goals and heading back to the mainland without any injuries.

Enjoy the day Hobart Demons.

When do they announce tonight's Team ? 

The squad will be cut to either 24 or 26 (have we worked that out yet?) 90 minutes before game time.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
