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.

Drove to work this morning with 2 Dees scarves out the back windows.

By the way, I live and work in Geelong.

Love your work, Chazz.  I hate these bastards and would love nothing more than to roll them tonight!

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.

    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.
