I remember us wearing it for a Retro Round game in Perth many years ago.  Is that the one you're thinking of... ?

Possibly. We definitely wore the royal blue in a retro Round but I couldn't tell you who it was against.

I flew down under the cover of darkness on Friday night. I’ve brought some family to their first game, looking forward to a big win.

Today I’d like to see us tighten up defensively inside our fwd 50. When opposition teams try to kick it out long we set up pretty well but when they go the short kick then a series of handballs or short kick/hand ball receive run and kick when get caught wanting.

It’s very dark here. They will need to put the lights on very soon. Not much of a crowd at the moment but I have made sure to position myself amongst the Demon supporters. Go Dees ❤️?

We need to win and get our spot back in the 8. Hope for a comfortable win

We win well today and we’re in the top 4.

And that will be a beautiful thing.

Another opportunity to make a move towards finals, we failed our challenges last year, will this be the day we finally stand up and demand to be counted. I think so.

Dee's by 78.

Petracca to tear it apart.

Frosty by the length of the Winton straight.

Three ravens on a fence there were,

As black as black as black.

Said one, 'Watch your defence, it's not all about attack.'

'Be sure to spread,' the second said, 'but keep one out the back.'

'The Blues aren't bad,' the third one said, 'they're sure to have a crack.'

Talking birds upon a fence

each with a football brain.

Take their advice and perhaps today,

The Dees will win again.

 

Dees by 22 points.

Looking at the weather radar, the worst seems to be missing us. The odd drizzle every now and then. Keeping fingers crossed. An undermanned Carlton might play like they have nothing to lose. Hope the boys are switched on not like the cats yesterday.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
