I would like to think we start off like we did in the JLT game against Richmond and keep it up for four quarters rather than go into a shell as we did that day.

Of course, the real thing is all about intensity. I think we have the team to do the job.

Let's roll DEMONS

Any win is a good win today being Round 1

Could be 100 points or 2 points

Just win

Win it for Max, Win it for the Club Members, Win it for yourselves.

Believe that you can win every quarter...

Go in hard...

 

 

I feel like we can't lose when you're up and about, SWYL.

That photo was taken ages ago. There are now 8 people in that section.

Anything could happen today. Port will go in hard, i have no doubt. 

Today will give us a good idea how much the players have matured. I saw it last night, late in the game. The Filth had 3 experienced players on the bench who couldn’t get on the ground. 

Players will now have to do some coaching on the ground, and sometimes they will have to hurt late in a quarter, like the old days. 

I like it. The runners became an obstacle on the ground

it’s round 1. An ugly scrappy win is fine by me, just win.

This will cost the teams with selfish players. Teams with team orientated players will benefit. 

Commentators on Thursday and Friday were noting that players on the ground were ignoring the bench to stay on the ground. I'm not sure if this was 100% accurate but if so it's not great from those individuals.

I can see the day coming soon when players will carry pagers to get them off the ground.

Maybe we could find a use for those jiggers that Darren Weir no longer needs?

    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.
