    We are BACK

    That felt like a 100 point win.

    We have so much absurd talent in the under 24 bracket, it will be a crime if we dont win a flag in the next 5 years

    Any win against North is a good one, even when they (Norf) dont really want to win.

    Bank it and pump the Eddies next week.

    We are still in the season.

    Did somebody on Demonland suggest Spargo shouldn’t get a game?

    Some really good signs in the game.  Including control the tempo of the ball movement, looks so much better, albeit against a weak side.

    What is good to see is pushing on a beating sides by big margins and not letting them back in.  In the past we would have let in late goals.  Not so anymore.

    Good win tonight, did what we needed to in Adelaide ... 

    Next two weeks are massive, a depleted pies and a inconsistent dogs side. Two wins there and we will be in a real position to launch in the back end of the season.

    good game 

     

    handy % increase, LJ showed a lot as did Kozzi, Tracc building to be a star (not it just yet), love seeing Oliver continuing to burst away and Weed finding form

    Mick Malthouse said today that we have another 'wasted season' on our hands.

    Stick that where the sun don't shine, Mick.  

    Took us a quarter to settle, and to kick straight, but we smashed them off the park.  Disposal count etc doesn't interest me, as we controlled the game easily tonight.  We moved it better, we worked harder and we made it count.

    The inclusions all had a positive impact tonight, starting with Spargo.  Pickett was great, Tom did his job and Rivers showed some good signs down back.

    On that, our back line was sublime once again.  Larkey kicked a few but no one else really looked like getting near it.

    Our season is well and truly alive at 5-5 and a healthy percentage to boot.

    Bring on the filth on Saturday for the real test!

    Good to see a bit of 'killer instinct' in that last quarter.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
