    Compare the pair. We know plus or minus a player or two who will be in our 2018 Preliminary Final Team. Here's the team from 30 years ago including a number of stars but also some players I don't even remember (Bret Bailey?). I think the 2018 team would have the 1988 team covered (which is a huge compliment to John Northey for getting them into the GF).

    Word on Perth radio is that Lycett might not get up. Couldn't participate in their main session on the weekend.

     Could be mind games to mess with our defensive set up too

    That would be massive. We need every advantage we can get.

    The 87 team made a prelim and followed it up with a GF appearance in 88 so they weren't too bad.

    A few similarities in the sense that both teams didn't have the greatest of home and way seasons. In '88 we started like a house on fire as I recall then had a mid season slump... (won 7 out of the first 8 and then 6 out of the next 14).

    Northey was on the radio the other day and like many here say the 1990 premiership was ours to win.

    Wow, that team was so inexperienced.  The average games played would lucky to be over 50.

    The only change I would be tempted to make would be

    Out: Tyson

    In: Hunt

    West coast have two very quick small forwards. The length of the ground and the ability to switch with pace. Hunt looked ok for Casey in conditions that were terrible. I would take a risk.

    SEN reported Max trained indoors today ?

    ...Club said he will be going to Perth with the team...

    tempted for J Smith for Tyson but gotta keep the team feel running

     

    Smith is a part of the year's successes - therefore, a team member with a full deck of cards. He is more potent than Tyson. Therefore, Smith in, Tyson issued a ticket to spectate.

    you'd pick a guy who's been out of form all year and was just 'ok' in the vfl? bit late in year to speculate

    You mean like with Goldsack.

    No change. Stability is great this time of the season. In 2005 Sydney didn't have a change for about 10 weeks.

    no goldsack wasn't out of form, just out of game time like jack viney. goldsack is more of an experienced known quantity too

    having said that, goldsack was still a risk. hunt would be a bigger risk (and i'm a hunt fan)

    Its not the right thread but Im so caught up in the euphoria of success at the minute I ju st wanted to give a shout out to Viney. Hasnt played for half a season and plays wonderfully.

    As far as changes maybe Vince for Tyson but I dont think it will happen.

    Go you good demons.

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
