    Being a Friday night, chances are Carlton is one of the teams in the curtain raiser.

    A Channel 7 directive apparently.

    Understandable given they were power club in the 70s and early 80s....


    Finished work and on my way to the g. I'm not nervous yet but its weird to think im going to watch my team play finals footy. 

    I got asked if could do a double shift tonight and said no way im off to the footy finals.

    I  just hope our young players don't play like the hawks youngsters last night. They were like deer in headlights

    10 mins to go. Beat traffic (hopefully). Get home and kiss the little one. Neck as many bourbons as possible. Get on train. Become nervous wreck.

    In WA and was going to watch at the paddo with western dees but feel too nervous . Will sit at home with a shandy or two. Lose and will mope around , win wish I had watched at pub but be glad I didn’t as I would be a wreck on Saturday!

     


    Almost time for my early exit.  It's been a very unproductive afternoon.  Heading in from Geelong on the train with my 16 year old son.  Been waiting for this moment for 12 long years.  

    Hopefully the players are feeling much calmer than I am.  Go Dees!!!

    Sounds like dees supports may need their own AA branch!

    About to arrive at the Duke for a few calming pre-game Boags. 

    Coopers pale long neck at ponyfish island , such a melbourne thing to do . 

    Was frightened to see the speed of the game last night , have we produced anything this season that resembles that ? Probably not 

    we are cleaner and trying for bigger things hopefully we can play our game tonight. 

    Cmon demons

    I had a full bottle of Sauv Blanc and some empty travel cups for the lineup but they checked bags before even being close to the gate!

    Well I wasn’t about to stand there and scull it out of a brown paper bag in front of everyone.

    At 10pm tonight it would have been a different story.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
