Given we gave the cats a run for their money and could have just as easily pinched the Lions game, Im starting to think maybe the port game was the odd game out.

Surely despite cwoods outs we did the business and have asserted our right in the 8.

Tonight's game aside, we've lost to the other 5 teams we've played above us

We've beaten 12, 13, 15, 17, 18  as well as a depleted Pies at 7

I'm happy, just not getting carried away

    Vander's was one of the most influential players on the ground in the first half. He splits packs, makes us walk taller and puts the fear of God in the opposition. I couldn't care if he had no stats!

    Couldn't agree more.
    And he's down there with May for the tag team.
    Sick of watching us get beat up over the years.

    Hopefully somebody got on us for a 40+ point win for $14 odds with Sportsbet.

    If we had beaten cats and lions we would be 2nd.

    Happy your happy but just saying we were only thumped once.

    Go Dees.

    Just a beautiful afternoon watching us dismantle the hated filth from the couch....great to see Gus play well with Viney back in, perhaps it’s more about his form than the presence of Jack but it worked well today

    Sensational effort boys. 2nd Quarter was very impressive. Didn't stop running all day, showed some real hunger.

    Not gonna lie, beating the filth always feels just that little better.

    Were you brought up in West Heidelberg?

    You play what's put on the park.

    We had a horrible 2019. Let us supporters at least enjoy this win for once.

    Great team effort tonight albeit against a banged up Pies unit who still had some great players, Sidebottom, Adams, Grundy et al. But looking at the game we had a few passengers so there is ample room for improvement on paper of course. Do we have better options for Tomlinson, Jones, TMac, AVB? Don’t change all but there are some options to include one or more of Hannan or OMac if the matchups are there.

    Loved it. That contest accidentally knocking out a pies player was a defining moment.

    Commentary will be pies were banged up and the schedule was getting to them but I don’t care. Anytime we [censored] the pies it’s a good thing.

    No where near that yet, but we are definitely getting back to our 2018 form.

    Its one week at a time. Doggies game huge next week.

    We've beaten three depleted teams in a row

    Granted, we won and won well as we should have - which is better than losing

    But let's wait until we replicate this a few times against better sides before we get carried away

    Should be another comfortable win if we take in our current form. 

      The Dogs are no good,  its a joke how hyped they were in the preseason. They're soft as.

    OK, I just want to get this out first.  Preuss did a great job.  His first game for the season coming up against one of the big AA rucks and while he didn't break even he certainly put in a good contest.  24 Hitouts to 35 and 12 disposals to 15.  That's a really good game against Grundy, especially keeping his disposals down.

    Yes also true, but it was in their favour. Also I believe the correct form is Rhodes

    I know the last 3 games have been against teams coming off 4 day breaks but we have done exactly what we should have and absolutely torn them a new one. Continue on this path lads and continue the awesome connection into our F50 in the coming weeks.

    Go you mighty fu#$*&@ Demons.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • 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?

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • 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?
