Not feeling too good about this one especially after we fell asleep for half an hour last week, just like Round 1.

I wont tip us until I have reason to, and so far there is none.

North by 17, sadly.

God I hope we win this one, need to keep building momentum early in the season, confidence etc and fk off this losing streak. 

North are taking me along to the Dees Chairman’s function so hoping for a cracking day with a easy Dees win.

Who’d you tip last night, out of interest?

As always I’ll head in hoping for the best expecting the worst (usual).

I just want to face the long commute home after beating North for once. 

C’mon Dees!

There’s an old Jewish saying I think applies here: ‘things are never as good as you hoped...nor as bad as you feared’.

Perhaps 'barring' ?

Perhaps just once on this forum some [censored] won't get the giggles over a typo. Perhaps.

First game of the season for me after being away for the first round.  So excited and really hope we smash this mob.

Slightly conflicted.

Daughter has a 'rock climbing' party to attend at 3:30. Right next to the rock climbing centre is a brewery with a great tap room and also a great outdoor area for kids. Wife suggests she takes daughter to party and I can spend some 'quality' time with the boy at the brewery. I'd need to record the game and enforce a complete media blackout until home...and that would also mean talking to the boy, who I love dearly, but conversations at the moment are solely about cars (Mustangs and Bugattis) and beyblades (whatever the [censored] those are).

Or, stay at home and swear at the TV in real time.

We won’t win if any of the following occur:

1) Brown kicks at least 4

2) We concede a 3 + goal start at qtr time

3) Jacobs holds Oliver to under 20 touches

4) If both Cunnington and Higgins are in the best 5 on the ground.

I’m tipping us to win though. Not many sides win when their $3 or over to win.

Just get the wife to take your daughter to her party, and you can spend "quality time" with your son watching the game live on TV together.

You know it makes sense.

Im spending time with my daughter at the MCG (quality of said time TBA, will let you know at 5pm.)

They put beer on tap because of what Dees supporters have had to endure.  Where I sit I cannot ‘creatively vent’ my thoughts (perhaps it is regarded as antisocial behaviour, but Ben brown really is a [censored]).  So I will either be up cheering spilling my beer over the old [censored] in the flat hat, or murmuring dark curses into my beer as I sulk.

please, Dees.  That poor bastard in the flat cap needs a beer shower.

Which Demonland regular will be the first one to melt down and make a fool of themselves if North kick a couple of goals early in the game, or hang around for a half?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
