Call the handbrake to apologise to her that I’ll be home late and best you sleep in the spare room.

......... richer in every way, except of course for our bank balance, which will be considerably 'lighter' after forking out several grand for GF tickets, airfares to and from Melbourne, and accommodation for the week so we can attend training, the GF Parade and the after-party.  Who cares about money when there are far more important considerations?

Feel some redemption for the tears I had as a 12 year old watching from home as the demons got smashed at the WACA back in the ‘94 prelim. My first demon premiership dream as a kid in tatters, we were riding a similar wave back then and a team with talent to boot, but came up against a juggernaut with players that looked unnaturally stronger and bigger then ours, over in the bright WA sunshine, with all their supporters wearing those disgusting fake blue and yellow scarfs, their stupid early 90s Eagles baseball caps and bolle sunglasses and their coach , can’t recall his name, and arrogant looking man with a silver bushy moustache .

Since then I’ve always hated West Coast

Come on people, you would go nuts! We are against the odds here ... WCE are primed to beat us, if we happen to win it will be MASSIVE. More then massive infact.

We would be into a f'ing GRAND FINAL! After the last 18 years how sweet this victory would be.

I would cry like a baby.

2015 my First son Jack was a still born, heading to the footy and watching the boys was my escape. Watching the boys improve year on year since 2016 has been amazing to watch and to see Co Captain Jack come back from injury and dominate brings a tear to my eyes.

Sorry to hear Philthy.

I think I’ll be a bit in between of beyond happiness joy and tears. The old man was a mad Dees man, our last game together was the 2000 grand final before cancer got him in Jan 01. 

He’s been top of my thoughts the last 4 weeks in particular.

Thanks mate.

Sorry to hear about your dad, cancer is a right bastard.

Had a still born in 2007, luckily she was a twin so my boy Rocco is healthy, so joy and sadness, a bit like this Saturday going to be.

We were fortunate enough to have another boy November last year, can't wait to watch the game with Oliver even if he doesn't have much of an idea what's going on!

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
