Just saw Mitch Hannan at my local cafe enjoying a coffee. Looking very relaxed. Now I'm worried ?

    Good that’s how they need to be, would be exhausted by 1st bounce if they were amped up like the supporters

    I am so glad to go and watch the dees play finals again. Still have clear memories of the Northey and Daniher years and how making the finals started to not count for much until you have won the cup. And we didn't. 

    After 12 years the excitement is back but a flag is really what I want to see. As for tonites game may as well toss a coin. Really want to play the hawks next week and kick their a$%e.

    If he tells you he's looking forward to tomorrow's game against the Cats, then worry. Otherwise, don't.

    Drive there, train home (if we win) or drive home (if we lose).

    We lost the first game this year against the Cats  because Gawn could not kick straight from 25 metres out. We lost the second after the siren because we were hopeless at defending for the last ten minutes.

    So what tonight?

    Dees by 1 why? no idea just hoping it is our turn.

    Any doubts about the inclusion of Viney were dispelled for me last night watching the game between Richmond & Hawthorn. Richmond 's pressure was relentless and ultimately is what gets them over the line most weeks. They just run harder and pressure for longer. I hope our players were watching that game and took note of what it is going to take to win finals footy. JV helps give us an added dimension of ferocity at the ball and opponent probably above any other player on our list or indeed player in the comp could. I'm really starting to look forward to seeing what we dish up to the Cat's tonight. We've been better than them twice already this year, hope we will be 100% switched on from the first bounce and put them away.

    I have a feeling Viney is going to run through and flatten one of the holy-wankers at the first bounce. I can feel it in my plums.

    OK I am incredibly nervous. I know we should win tonight. If we play the brand of the last 2 games, we win easily IMO. 

    I feel like the walls in my office are closing in on me. I need to get out of here, drink beer, and prepare myself for the most important game I have seen us play since I was 13 years old (our last grand final). 

    GO YOU GOOD THINGS DEE'S!!!!!!

    Scott has made late team changes in most games this year. 

    I noticed Zac Smith is an emergency.  Scott is as sneaky as they come so wouldn't be surprised to see Smith in for Abbott  - just to throw Max and our preparation.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
