3 upsets so far:  Ess d GWS.  Nth d Pies.  WBD d Power. 

Today might make it 4 upsets with a Dees d Lions!

Glad we had only one change.  Time to settle the team and get some synergy going among fwd, backs, middle and synergy with ball movement end to end. 

Optimistic that we can click today; if we do we win!

    I live 700 metres from the Gabba.  Clear blue sky right now although we had a couple of heavy showers overnight. Have had some rain most days this week so the deck may be a little slippery. Predicting 25 degrees though and no doubt for you southerners up here for the game, it will be sunscreen, shorts and polo shirts!  ? 14 degrees in Melbourne today.......

    Hope to catch up with a few of you either at the German Club pre match or the Pineapple post game.

    Are we ready for Frost-Ball?

    If the Lions are to play finals at least make them  earn their place. Hopefully last week instilled some confidence in our team and we go out there and play some decent footy. Keen to see if the young gun Andrews goes to Weid. 

    Big Call- Weid to kick 3+.

    Have a big fat weisenstaphaner and a schnapps for me @ProperDee

    first time in a long time I won't be making the two hour trip to the Gabba.

    I just can't be sure what they're going to dish up but here's hoping we've got the wheels back on.

    Looking forward to more beast mode from Viney. Go Dees

    This may sound optermistic but if we win today we are only 3 games behind them and 2 games out of the 8 .Can only dream we can still make finals

    Geez, I had hoped to get up there for this game. I had planned to impose on rellys for free accommodation and grog but, sadly, it fell through.

    I was confident of a victory last week and am even more confident this week. 

    I shall enjoy my own booze and celebrate ( in my typical style)  at The Manor.

    Contrary to your arrangement BBO she's the type who'd be far more likely to be handing out the jolly good spanking.

    Not that there's anything wrong with that.

    Win today and we are still in the hunt. A long shot, but still alive. 

    Go Hard Demons...

    I give us a chance but think the bears will be hard to beat on their own dunghill.

    Our percentage is quite poor. Even if we win we won't move up at all.

    Both jealous and proud of any Vic based dees supporters that have made a weekend away to fly the flag and watch this one. Wish I was with you. I’m bloody freezing.

    Yep and start winning big.


    Great day up here and the ground should be fast by start time. Reckon we have a big chance here. Bring the pressure, win contested ball and the clearances and win it will be. Lions played circle work last week as Saints put no pressure on and a couple of weeks ago Lions were ordinary against Blues. Go Dees.

    We are right on the edge, big time. But i expect to see the Club fight hard, i went to all those games in 1987. 

    The scenario could happen again. 

    A win on the road can galvanise belief. 

    I think we will do well today...

    Im predicting a win for the second week in a row.

    Not at all confident, but there you go.

    I hope you have TV coverage in The Azores @Skuit. I will be listening on internet radio from Thailand* 

    *Not a brag at all coz if i was home i could actually watch the game. At least the food is good here.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
