  • Dees mids run fwd of the ball and are poor defensive runners too. Could be a shoot out.
  • Melbourne likely to be underdone. 1 match in, what, 12 weeks.
  • If I played that fantasy footy thing Gawn would be my captain this week.
  • Demons should win this and well.
  • What have Melb ever done - well they won a premiership in 1964 - then won their opening 8 games in 65 ( and then spectacularly crashed ) and thats about it - havent done anything since of note
  • Fort v Gawn. This won’t end well if the Dees mids turn up focused.
  • Gawn will have 50 hit-outs, Fort may compete around the ground but he's a mile behind in ruck craft.
  • We have no match for Gawn-->their MF will run hot.
  • Is Melbourne even good?
  • We'll probably get a typical game where Melbourne don't turn up. We win easy, Dangerfield, Selwood and Ablett will be all smiles, Rohan will get a hand-pass over the top in the last quarter and fist pump like he's won the flag (because he cares so much), and it'll be forgotten again.
  • Surely Melbourne and Carlton aren’t going to be the ones to dictate our season, things can slip away too quickly this year. I’m confident we'll hammer Melbourne.
  • Melbourne still have to prove to themselves as much as the football public how capable they are. On raw talent they're up there with anyone, but until they start doing it consistently, the question mark will (and should) remain.
  • Demons are a bull at a gate type of team with players like Oliver, Viney & Brayshaw in the middle although the latter was moved out of the middle at times last year. They’ve brought in width with Langdon & Tomlinson, yet still butcher the ball going forward and run forward of the ball and get exposed the other way. If they put it together they can blow us away, yet they’re very inconsistent and poorly coached. They’re definitely a mood team. 
  • Constable had a day out against Melbourne last year. Wouldn't mind seeing that again.
  • Don’t be surprised. Kolo down back, Blicavs into ruck, Sav up forward.
  • Tigers dump 4 premiership players after a loss. What does Scott do? Gives Harry a rest and brings in even more defenders. Bloke is just too [censored]-weak to make a statement.
  • This club under Chris Scott is a joke.
  • I think it will Sav to ruck, Blicavs to full forward so we can take advantage of his kicking and marking prowess. And Melbourne will be too surprised to counter.
 

they think a lot more of MFC than most demonlanders

 

Surprisingly good analysis by the Geelong supporters. Bang on.

That raised a chuckle.


I wish this site was as considered as the views in the OP.

I didnt shake my head at a single post.

The other footy club supporters arent as dumb as some on here think.

The Cats should be fairly confident this week, but they arent exactly OTT with their predictions.

Thumbs up to them i guess.

That post has particular significance. The truth hurts.

Absolute bull [censored]. We won the VFL night premiership in 87.

 

This sums us up perfectly in my opinion. I’m sure a large number of DemonLanders would agree, at least to a certain degree:

Demons are a bull at a gate type of team with players like Oliver, Viney & Brayshaw in the middle. They’ve brought in width with Langdon & Tomlinson, yet still butcher the ball going forward and run forward of the ball and get exposed the other way.

Respect to them, those posts are pretty bang on.

They're in so much denial and misery about missing out on that Panasonic Cup.

Yes we are a moody team IMO how else can it be said. I know one thing  a couple of good wins in our next 2 matches and the mood will change for the better.  That means  3 -1  and a game in hand.   JUST SAYING.

Cocky little turd this one.  It wasn't so long ago that Geelong were in a similar position.

Watch how quickly this forum will be eye rolling at Carlton's flag-less quarter century should we pinch one before they do!

As for the Cats - get your flag count into double figures, then come back to us.


Should we really have to give a rat's toss bag about what the farmers down at Geelong think about anyone?

I think we have a marginally better win loss record since 2000 compared to Carlton, but battling it out for least and second least sucessful team of the century is hardly something I'm going to do a jig about.

...it was bloody nice to beat the Blues by 100 odd points a few years back, but perhaps the Cats fans feel something similar about that fateful day down at Kardinia park Dean Bailey era.

They really dont like Chris Scott.  Amazing to think he won a flag with them.

I could have coached that team to a flag.

”team, go do what you have been doing for the last 5 years. Thanks”

Premiership won.

And then they did something that we haven't done for 56 years. They produced one of the great teams of the modern era.

Rightfully dismissive of our blokes.

They might post some sensible comments on forums but they act like total morons at matches.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
