Can't believe we're actually here, feels like forever. This match is huge, if ever I'd like to see us come out and smash a team hard early it's tomorrow. I wonder if there'll be any info about how players went in the scratch match.

We have this one, despite the two absentees - and that has not really panned out as a concrete omission, yet. There is suddenly some selected pace, foot skills, mobility reeking of intent ... go boys! Hope TMac gets some time at CHB, once again.

 

Cant believe those to boys could make a mistake like that so close to an afl game.Still think we will win comfortably,ANB is a good competator but would love to have seen the excitement Pickett would bring

    It's frustrating we're going to have to wait to see Kozzi and Bennell in the same team. Just so silly.

    Oh yes, game day. It's been so long. Need a win, must win, no excuses.

     

    Problem is that could have been copied and pasted from the Carlton forum ?

    Game day :D

    Round 1 was bitterly disappointing for mine, not so much in terms of the result but by just how similar our performance was to what we regularly produced last year. 

    Excited for many reasons, but optimistic in seeing some better connection going inside 50.

    Go Dees! And go Harley!

    Gastro’s pretty contagious, isn’t it?

    If we all care to recall... Tom has 'unfinished business' with this mob. Would love to see him run amok at CHF. Pleased to see the inclusion of Jayden Hunt, courageous with a never say die attitude to boot.

    Hmm not at all confident to be honest... Unfortunately think the Blues will roll us & set the scene for another poor year for us ☹️

    I hope Harley gets through, I hope Maxy stands up and kicks a goal if required and I hope there are no injuries and we win.

    Me to looking forward to the litany of excuses on here though

    should be veeeerrryyyy nteresting

    Really upset that ANB is back

    My young nephew thinks he is a Jonah!

    Looks like we are back to the good old days of no small forward with Kozzie out and ANB as his replacement.

    Should have bought Bedford in.

    Anyway if we cant win this game with the colossal advantage Gawn has in the ruck, we are doomed and North supporters can start thinking about pick 1.

    Good luck Harley!


    I think we are doing the right thing with this side but it will take time. Looking to the future with a couple more younsters is the way to go. However they don't have a lot of experience together and I think this will show. I can see us getting done but we are the type of side that can bounce around with a few good results this year and some nasty ones. Normally I would be pulling my hair out over the result but there is some rebuilding to do and we do have some good youngsters who should get games. Lose this but beat Essenscum the following week.

     

    5 hours to go - the suspense is killing me!

    Just waiting at Scumbury station for the train to Spencer Street.

    Aiming for my usual counter lunch and gutful of pots before heading over to Docklands

    Funny …… I don't see any other supporters around.   Well as they say …… the early bird ….

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
