i feel like i haven't enjoyed this win yet as i was so stressed in that last quarter that i'm just relieved.  We'd be the only team to lose from 5 goals up in torrential rain! but we got there in the end. gee, that frost holding the ball could've cost us the game. you could see us trying to lock the ball in but we had too many numbers around the footy. sometimes its better to let the opposition get the ball and tackle them instead of all diving on it and then having to get the ball out.

By my count it was 5-1 their way in the last q too...

To be fair, the Jones and Frost ones were obvious.

The high against Gus? was a joke

The Frost one was nothing, and had it been a crows player...it would absolutely have been play on. Just shameful umpiring, as usual in Adelaide. The AFL needs to settle down on the rules fiddling and put their efforts into finding ways to improve interstate umpiring. It ruins the game.

Tonight was a first for me. It was the first time in my life that I desired a cold shower and had one. The reason being I was absolutely sweating bullets after that game. Gee whiz.

Feel so invigorated right now :)

I have heard a bit about that in Thailand .... though I think a similar suggestion got a Mr Musk into hot water recently.

Love to know whats wrong with Hogan....rest next week?

He was fantastic for an injured man in that last contest, though he needs to learn to handball both hands.

Just got home from the game. Loved the effort in the last quarter considering a gale was blowing to the Crows end. One of the best wins this year for me. Suck [censored] Crows!!

Watched the last two minutes just now. I'd have passed out watching it live.
 

It was intense TU. You’ll see some good footy in the 3rd quarter when you watch the replay.

Tonight was the first time for me. I left the house for a walk around the block when Tex was lining up after the Frost free. I couldn’t physically watch anymore.

 Told the crew at home to leave the outside light on if we win. The walk took 5 minutes and when I got back there was no light on. 

That was one sick joke they played on me. I’m only calming down now after watching the last 3 minutes. 

We should be extremely proud tonight Demonlanders.

No idea the wind came up.  Was still early.  Nice to know and changes the view of the approach a bit

    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

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
