Fitness looks good.

Fritsch forward finally.

Bring on the season.

 

 

Yep pretty good showing in the marsh cup looking forward to round 1! 

3 from 3 (I refuse to count the Essendon game as we played next to no one in it, plus it doesn't suit my narrative...)

Pretty much no injuries (fingers crossed for AVB and Weid)

Some encouraging signs, especially with the defensive unit

Gawny made a successful comeback

Fritsch kicks 5, Milkshake 4

We'll roll the Eagles by 10 goals in Round 1.

Bring it on!


Fritsch to kick 70+

Melksham is a gun

May, Lever, Lockhart yes yes yes

Langdon and Tomlinson brilliant recruits

 

Bring on Round 1.. no excuses.

 

Always good to beat those ugly brown and golds, in anything.


I’ll take credit for this stirring victory.
 

When I ran into the boys at the airport yesterday, my inspirational words to Jake Lever were obviously passed onto the rest of the group, lighting the fire in the belly on their quest for glory. 
 

You’re welcome...

*mic drop 

A good hitout. There is a lot of competition for spots on the flight west for R1.

How many possies did he get?

Match high 33 disposals. Fantastic all game.

Couldn't watch any of the game. A poster talked about how good defence looks.

What role did May have in this re organising etc. Same query for lever? 

Thoughts?

BOG for me just ahead of Fritter. Lever really impressed and Lockhart is a beauty.

Bedford looked dangerous 

Bedford looked impressive from limited minutes, will certainly give Pickett a run for his money for that small forward role if not rd 1 early into the season

Ball movement infinitely better with Langdon and Tomlinson running the wings

Wouldnt mind 10 of Bayley Fritsch

Was great seeing May looking happy out there and the back 6 settled

Lockhart massively impressive down back, great composure with ball in hand and should make his way into the rd 1 side

As hard as it is being optimistic about this club at times, this preseason has been exceptional and the boys have set themselves up well for a good crack at the season. Will have nowhere to hide and no one to blame if this all goes belly up.

Go Dees!


Defensive setups looked vastly superior to last season. Hawks might have got out the back once in the entire game. Lockhart looks at home down back and for me he is best 22.

Toby was good too

Ecellent call . Was disgraceful.

 

Not all perfect, but it didn't have to be, and we did something we haven't done in a long time, take control and run a game out! We actually look fit. So many positives. Fritter, Tomlinson, Trac, Langdon, Lockhart, Lever, Milkshake. Like what I see of Jackson and Bedford.

I think we'll beat the Eagles in R1. We're coming in with some form and by the looks of it self belief. Can't wait! 

WOW! Tomlinson and Langdon it is amazing to have two very talented ready made players extra experience to boost our stocks.

That is what you call depth. 

Jackson,  Lockhart and Bedford   future  looked good for us.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

  • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
