The first half of the season puts paid to predictions such as what were made at the start of the year so the idea of going off the first half of the season to draw your conclusion about the second half is folly.  Whilst I doubt we will make the eight I do think that this is not a rational thing and a couple of wins could put us on a winning streak.  We have our injured players back and the run home does look a bit more doable.  Reach the eight and it is game-on

Ah, bugger it. I’m on at $21 to make the 8. Not sure about the $251 for the flag though. We were $501 last night. Did the plunge come from here?

Might have been my 3 bucks each way that tipped the scales

was wondering when we were going to morph into discussing our flag chances for 2019.

Just about to book a trip for warmer climes during finals time. Do you guys think I should hold off?


The club should be doing whatever it takes to best prepare the team for fitness, list management and gameplan for 2020.

The Club should be asking those who are still on the park to show some grit, endeavour and pride

The rest will take care of itself

Our previous 'list management' practices turned out realllyyy well......

how on earth are we $21 to make the 8?! 

should be $501 

 

There's precedence to such spectacular crashes the following year. 

Fremantle went from being 16-2 after round 19 2015, to going 4-18 the next year. They finished 16th in 2016 but one of those sides below them was a VFL side (who incidentally beat our senior side in 2016).

If things go south for us over the next fortnight I'm expecting a "will we win another game" thread pop up.

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
