Demonland 74,465 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 It's probably a month early but confirmation that Ollie Wines will be missing for the Round 1 clash. 4
Ethan Tremblay 31,389 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I reckon Port will be a discombobulated rabble this coming season, I envisage a 15 goal win in round 1. #Bookmarkit. 1 1
Moonshadow 17,678 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Nah, Wingard and Polec will save them... 3

Oh dear this is the kind of "getting ahead of ourselves" mentality that has brought this club to its knees over and over again Rest assured they will, like every other team come out firing and will be desperate to get a win in round 1 - it will not be easy #bookmarkit They have some quality players - if we are not 100% focused and committed a loss is definitely on the cards 3
Ethan Tremblay 31,389 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Just now, Sydee said: Oh dear this is the kind of "getting ahead of ourselves" mentality that has brought this club to its knees over and over again Rest assured they will, like every other team come out firing and will be desperate to get a win in round 1 - it will not be easy #bookmarkit They have some quality players - if we are not 100% focused and committed a loss is definitely on the cards I fail to see how my post influences the performance of the team. 4 2 2
Sydee 4,684 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 My point was if the team shares your overconfidence they are very likely going to get belted - simple really I certainly hope they don't because it would be completely ill founded at this stage

My God underselling your powers, I am shocked This is Demonland, there are posters on here who know so much more than the coaches we have, the coaches make sure they read Demonland to ensure they don't let their inadequacies fail the team 3
Go Dees!! 109 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 There are always surprise results in rounds 1 & 2. I hope the boys just go out and play good hard footy & if they get the chance to put their foot on Port's throat that they do it BIG time! There's nothing better than gathering momentum early!
What 18,810 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 We will win this by 100 without breaking a sweat. Already looking to Round 2.

640MD 3,570 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I am surprised that the coaches and selection committees have not yet asked my opinion. Or opinions they change regularly! Perhaps I should call them to make sure they have my phone number..... not sure. Go Dees

If my memory isn't completely stuffed I believe I envisaged a similar result against the same opponent in the first round some seasons back. Virtually the opposite thing happened. Let's not hatchet our Counts before they turn chicken. 2
chook fowler 19,783 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I don’t think Port are that bad. They will be thereabouts for the 8. We will need to bring our A game. 1 1
MurDoc516 1,529 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Trac to kick 6 and we'll win by 8 goals.
Bring-Back-Powell 15,560 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Any word on Charlie Dixon’s recovery from a broken leg? Wines, Polec, Wingard and maybe Dixon would be handy outs from the side that beat us last year. Mind you they’ll include Hartlett and Lycett into the side.

Little Goffy 14,974 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Round 1 had a pattern of delivering some of the most miserable moments during our most miserable period, so I'm still a little wary of it. But... on the one hand I'm much more confident in our team's ability, and on the other hand I'm much more confident that our team has the resilience to carry on with a strong season even if we do stuff up round 1. It is a bit like, I'm looking forward to round one as a big deal, but only because it is the start of the season, not because I feel like it is any particularly crucial, tone-setting game.
Willmoy1947 4,261 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Ninety to hundred would pay about 33/1 i reckon. Well worth a half pi33ed bet with the mates.

Watts after an at times distracting and turbulent off season will be coming in really hot, frothing one might say, eyes rolling back in his head looking to rack up and power Port into a 10 goal drubbing. 1

DeezNuts 624 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 First hit out for the season.. both teams would need to iron out some wrinkles, and get used to a new set of rules if anything - I hope I can get down for Rd 1! But, Port do have a team of champions right?
