Hehe, I found a box of LEGO that I kept from the 80s and unleashed that on the pests... I mean children the other day. Then I jumped on eBay and bought up a few vintage sets that I always wanted as a kid and never had! Did I take it too far good doctor Dee?!

Living vicariously through one’s offspring is a parent’s prerogative. Especially when it comes to Lego and brainwashing (I mean influencing) in regards to football. My girls favourite songs right now are ‘Happy Dog’ by Justine Clarke and ‘Grand Old Flag’.

The tonic for my Game Morning nerves has worked a treat since the Geelong game.

Find a song and let it repeat for 5 hours.

Mine is High Hopes by Panic! At the Disco.

Hoping for another decent lead at the first break and making the Swans chase the rest of the game.

No. This is completely normal. My kids are still on Duplo - can’t wait till they’re big and dexterous enough for real lego! 

Mine wanted to see if mars was still up and where Venus was. Then the trampoline. At 6am. Now watching the PGA.

All these finals permutations are getting confusing. Remind me again, are we cheering for or against Sydney today?

Pretty clear the early game day posters have kids under 5. ?

Daring to believe we can get this done, lock a spot in the final-lys and start to hone our finals style game knowing that we’ll be there. 

Hope it stays dry for the ladies.

Here in London , got the alarm set for 6.20 am. If we get off to a quick start , ill probably wake the neigbbours . If we get off to a slow start , I’ll probably wake the neighbors——. Have positive feelings about the result , we win by 18 points ??

Great challenge today. With the swans experience they know how to win these high pressure games and we generally don’t. Win this and it’s another step to developing the mental strength required to be one of the top teams.

Crunch time!  I'm very 'on edge', but I think we will stand tall.

My MFCSS is knocking down the door at a furious rate. I believe in 14 wins but maybe today will be that loss. I don't know.

Today won't assure us of a finals birth, but by crikey, it will go very close, especially after the Dogs upset the Roos in the curtain raiser to our game.

Dees by at least 1 point.

Had a dream midweek that we were down 44-1. I'm a tad nervous about how we start this game.

So nervous. 

This is the most important clash we’ve been involved in in a decade. 

God help my heart. 

This is how big today is -

If we beat Swans and the Dogs upset the Kangas...  we are in the finals.  

UNLESS...   Geelong win their last two by approximately 180 points combined, and we lose our last two by approximately 50 points combined.

Oh damn I just triggered my MFCSS.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
