The love for that fat man baby Ablett from the commentators. What a joke. 

Yes he’s been a superstar but he was crap last night. He isn’t a champion everytime he lays a tackle. Seriously!

Just watched Jetta on this

http://www.afl.com.au/stats/stats-pro#/discover/CD_I281280/Jetta-Neville

If anyone has seen a better 7 possession game in defence...well, 

And his AFL ratings are below, which really make a mockery of what is useful in providing value to a side...

Our forward pressure was insane. We will go a long way to winning next week if we replicate that performance AND nail those scoring opportunities. 

We must convert our scoring opportunities next week. We won’t win kicking 1 goal 10 against the Dorks and we won’t get as many opportunities as last night.

If it goes Cats, Hawks, Pies, Tigers, that will be pretty much the perfect 4 opponents.

 Breaking through the 2 teams who have given us the most pain through our dark years, then a preliminary final vs our ancient foe. Then a GF vs the defending champions. You couldn't script that better, and there's no 4 teams I'd like to beat more than them if we could do it.

One week at a time though… 

And it would mean we play each final at the MCG rather than having to go to Perth.

Hopefully the AFL takes note of what happens when you give the dees a Friday night game in Melbourne.

You get 91K fans and a cracking game.

take note again next week afl, before working the fixture for next year.

I think Gawny had a crack about Melbourne playing two Friday nights in a row during his interview with Eddie on Fox last night.

Jordan Lewis just said on 3AW, the crowd last night was in the top 3 crowds he’s ever played in front of. He said the noise and support for us was phenomenal.

No more clapping (polite applause) allowed !!!   only yell and scream for the mighty Dees.

 

Make Noise... and Raise Hell Demons.

I’m just taking this Finals stuff one week at a time, but I cannot help but get a little emotional/ Happy about all this. Thoughts and dreams about just hopefully our time is coming and about us rejoiceing in hopefully a drought breaker together. 

Never had this feeling before at all in my sort life barracking for the Dees... here’s to hoping something maybe brewing very soon!

A lot of cheap late boat-anchor bumps etc.  A pale image of his former self.

    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.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
