Stuff the afl, how dare they prioritise broadcasters so blatantly and leave us with a 5 day break to deal with

I actually thought you were meaning the following week, when if we get through the first week, we will play the loser of Hawks/Tigers who will then have the extra day break having played the night before us.

 

Thursday night would be very hard. But I would play finals on the moon on Monday at 3pm. It’s finals. Suck it up!

win on Friday and barrack like hell for Collingwood on the Saturday ... sounds like a plan.

Funnily enough I fear Geelong most (MFCSS perhaps) but get past them and who knows.

Trust that the coaching brains trust have it worked out as I'm sure the Geelong coaches will have a plan for Oliver and Gawn.

Why barrack for Collingwood? Surely we’d fancy ourselves in a prelim against West Coast in Perth - we’ve already done the job once. 

To be honest though I’m actually beastly careless about any of the other results. They’re all tough opponents, so the relief and excitement over any win we get, or the disappointment of a loss, will pretty much swamp any other feelings or thoughts.

Gee it’s great in theory but I need Collingwood out of the finals as quickly as possible.

The lid is off here.

Just had a coffee bought to me in bed (Happy Fathers Day to all Demonlanders) and was trying to decide after we win the Cup this year if we would be a Western Bulldogs one hit wonder. For some reason I believe this group is set for a long term dynasty and we are more than likely to go back to back

The Pies are ripe for the plucking my friend... believe

"Yesterday's Magpies, Today's Feather Dusters".  A header from the back page of the Herald Sun after a famous Melbourne victory in the 1960s.  I'll never forget it. Apologies for the indulgence.

Agree... looking back to '88 and 2000 those were years in which a number of players had stand out seasons. This group on the other hand are in the main performing to their expected ability.

Of course to win one let alone a couple of flags requires Lady Luck to favour us just a little.

Happy Fathers Day

Fascinating little exercise

The computer result is encouraging ;)

 

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-09-04/test-your-afl-finals-predictions-against-modelling/10195136

So going by the modelling we are fourth favourite to win (9%), behind the Pies (12%), WCE (13%) and the Tigers are huge favourites at (48%). That sort of feels about right but I think they have the Tigers a bit hot at almost flip a coin between them and everyone else put together

Starting to see a glimmer of hope as the road moves from a sheep path to a reasonably defined four wheel drive rut.

Go Dees

Well the road is certainly now paved and the potholes well and truly filled.

Off to see GWS v Pies tonight after the game down at Port. Hoping to see a good performance by GWS as a lead up to their game against Richmond.

May even dust off the old vehicle and do some Nullabor wanderings this week towards Perth.

Those roadside stops look positively inviting.

The only finals teams I fear are the Hawks and the Tigers. Everyone else can bring their best and we can take it.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
