You don't think the FD have thought of this stuff...seriously??

Of course they have. 

I was alerting fellow posters to the possibility...

Anyone else done three nervous poo’s already? 

[layzie 34,146]

Just had a blackout in the office that lasted 30 minutes. Would have loved an excuse to leave early

Thank you Ethan, your crude post has helped my body clock readjust to football on Friday.

My pumped up nethers are now telling me with certainty that the  adrenalized Demons will swamp the poosies early and go on to a memorable crushing. Further we will follow this up by smacking the dorks next week.

Unfortunately the swelling then subsided so subsequent predictions are on hold as it were.

BTW Ethan did you throw your nervous outcomes around the neighbourhood?

[P-man 13,366]

I’ll be on a plane in less than three hours. Bring this [censored] on.

Three?  Try five.  I think I need to see somebody though...

I may wander down to the boardwalk and throw them like a gorilla.

Finding it almost impossible to work today.

Same!!! Our servers have been down until 10 minutes ago. I was thinking I could do a sneaky and get out early and go drink to calm my nerves. Back on now. Absolute balls!

[FlashInThePan 1,893]

My pregame checklist (finals edition):

• Wearing Lucky Undies... check
• Read every article on the game and every demonland post... check
• Avoid breaking mirrors or walking under ladders... check
• Make my cat sleep outside as she has some black fur and I don't want to risk her crossing my path... check
• Give my kids a prematch address at breakfast about how THIS is our year... check
• Sit at my work computer pretending to work but in fact thinking about tactics for taking Dangerfield out of the game... check

That's it, I'm done. Now it is down to Goody and the boys #RAISEHELL

Ever the eternal optimist OD

So what is your prediction bb?

[Cards13 9,117]

Roller coaster today, calm and relaxed early doors, really up and about around the office as we have a heap of Dees fans very excited  (Including one old mate who flys out to Greece at 4pm today, he has 2 family weddings in ireland over the coming week.  Would have cost him $2k to change his flights to tomorrow)

Felt a bit sick in the guts because of nerves, steady the ship with a massive HSP for lunch and I’m not sure if I feel sick from the nerves of the food. 

[McQueen 17,867]

We're not here to compete.

We're here to win.

Go Dee's!!

[frankie_d 1,471]

MFCSS prevents me for saying or thinking anything rational about this game.

I will just go and suffer.

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.

Not likely 'Lucifer', Smith (206cm) came up against our Smith of the Tim (192cm) variety last week and gave them nothing in a 15 goal loss.

Looked like being an absolute champion in the VFL when he played with the Suns as a 17yo before they came into the comp now it looks like he's at the crossroads...struggles with the contest but must be more to it.

...but Scott does like his left of fields...more likely to run Blicavs in the ruck I think.

3x coffees today was not a good idea, maybe I’ll have to bring in a cheese board to clog it all back up (sorry if you’re having lunch)...

in reality, had a nice breakfast in the bloc arcade, wandered around town, bought some long-johns for under the jeans tonight - it’s a bit colder here than Sydney! Glad to be here but terribly nervous ? 

[In Harmes Way 7,826]

I think I'm going to cry at the end of this game regardless of the result

Lucky I'm only going to have 90,000+ people near me when this happens

Are they really expecting that many?

Probably but I hope not, getting from the ground was by all accounts hell last night.

Tonight add a Storm game across the road and a Demo in the city. If we win it will be bearable but if we don't!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jibroni 5,028]

Cant wait and feeling quietly confident we can win this. The performances in the last two weeks shows the players are ready for this.

Just went to Maccas to get some cheap grub to line my stomach. My order number was... 186. Not sure if that’s a good or bad omen ?

[Guest]

On my lunch break at the moment. I'm trying to get through The Brothers Karamazov as a distraction, but can't stop looking at bloody Demonland. Very nervous despite the fact I am 10,000 ks away.

More coffee isn't helping. I wonder if a sickie is required today?

Did the same.. Except HJs. That whopper isn't sitting too well.  Last few hours at work excruciating. Starting to really get nervous.

It's my anniversary today... luckily my partner has already admitted defeat a long time ago and knows The Dees always come before him. Poor man!

I am surprised that he remembers, most men have no idea until reminded by their partner.
