I find that the pre-match Demonland threads lack a certain intellectual rigour and brings me no closer to deciding whether we will beat our opposition or not . . .

So, introducing Omen Watch:

I was visiting the hospital tonight, in ward C5 (Petracca?) and noticed a digital sign which read 'U4 EG afl. los'

I'm thinking it's bad.

But a duck also died next to my house the other day.

Maybe that's good?

Was the duck killed by an eagle? If so, could be a bad sign.

Not cryptic enough. Bring back the riddler from the draft forum a few years back!

Yesterday I saw a woman wearing blue and yellow socks walking across the road, she tripped over the gutter and landed on her stomach. Pretty sure she was awarded a free kick. Good sign or bad sign?

Was it you who gave her a kick? Could be a good sign.

My girlfriend got the dead duck out of the water - but not with a Gaff.

I visited a farmer last night.

He had 22 dead Wedge tailed Eagles shot and strung up along a barbed wire fence.

Inside the house a huge fire was lit.

Out of the fire appeared 22 Tasmanian Devils who scooted out to the fence and devoured the Eagles before running into a massive laurel Bush  and murdering a nest of Magpies.

Seems fairly positive.

Business as usual, I’d say

Looks like someone is trying a different brand of bathwater.

Is it an omen that in Sydney this week I've had multiple sightings of other Demon supporters in team gear? There's clearly some pride and determination still to be found. Possibly stung by the irritation of being around Swans supporters.

I saw a father and son today, the son was wearing a demon t-shirt and and a red and blue jacket, the father had a demon key ring.

So for me if i see fellow dee's before the game it's good luck, how ever if i see the other team colours it's always bad.

So all good for this week?

When my wife was with child a few years back I was at St Vincents Hospital and noticed one of their Obstetricians was named Dr Pregs Pillay.

Then I had a baby. (Not actually me, you understand.)

I think we've got this one.

    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.
