Yes...I did mean so far.

I am extremely confident of a win today (and next week).

No one on DL has been more negative than me this year, but we are turning it around. I think we may be in for the ride of our lives in 2nd half of the year. And that ride will start today.

With both SA clubs losing this weekend this game has become that much more important... A win here and we are just a single game behind 7th and 8th spot.

I feel quite optimistic today. We played our best football of the season last game in some brilliant passages.  If a few more handballs stick to their targets and the goal kicking is fine tuned, absolutely we can win this.

We should have beaten last years premiers relatively easily last week in the city with the biggest home game advantage in the comp. Back home, we can put the GWS “Gunna Win Soons” to the demon sword.

I’m expecting a fair loss today. 

Possibly a slippery day, we love to handball... mega turn overs.

if it stays dry... maybe, but I can’t see us winning.

Love the optimism. 

Let me temper that. 

We will be obliterated today.

I think GWS will be far too classy for us. They have talent across all fields.

Giants by 4 goals.

“Obliterated”? Ah well. I guess I will just take my enjoyment from my backyard bbq lunch and a cold beer or three in the glorious 26 degree Brisbane weather then?  

Days like this serve to remind me why I moved up here.

both us and the Giants don't play the MCG well, so no real advantage there. I think they have more class across the ground than us at the moment so im expecting about a 4 or 5 goal loss. but will be happy to be proven wrong of course.

Despite everything, our core midfield - our biggest strength - has remained completely intact, and the only one not really in form is Brayshaw. Defensively (as a team, rather than back half personnel) we’re functional now, where we were hopeless early in the season. Our forward “connection” (I’d never heard that term before this year) is just going now, which was also rated as hopeless early.

Couple this with the fact that GWS have historically sucked at the G gives me confidence we can knock them over. We’re nowhere near as bad now as people are making out. Looking forward to this one.

- Toby Greene will kick five majors. 

- Hore will take seven intercept marks.

Taking my 4 year old to his first game of the year. We have country memberships. Anyone know if we just scan at the gate or do we need to nominate the game somehow and get a ticket in another way? Just unsure how the five games are counted.

You moved to Brisbane to get away from the football. Wow. Of all the spots in Queensland tho, why Brisbane ?

My weather app says it’s only 25 degrees in Brisbane today so the jokes on you.

Heading to the G today. Yet to attend a win this year ?.

I’ve changed my tip back and forth about 20 times. Might settle on GW$ as emotional insurance. 

Not sure what to expect today.

12 degrees here. Raked some leaves, about to do a run to the recycle centre.

Public holiday tomorrow, the fridge(s) are stocked, the only thing missing this arvo is Tom $cully to say some nasty swears at.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
