One small step by the Demons ...

I’m off to the game this afternoon. I’m very excited. Live footy,!. Could be some pies eaten and beers drunk. I’ll barrack for you southern Demonlanders. 
Go Dees!

 

Wooohooo!!! September football with the Demons

Was lying in bed cursing this faruking lockdown and trying to remember A: what day it is and B: what appointment I had after 4pm today. After checking my reminders and a bit of light surfing, I realized we are playing at 4 something or other today. What a strange time to play footy midweek

Alas there will be no smoking meat for Josh today, I'll be farming the pig instead of eating it, but go the Dee's none the less.

Do have a nice big brisket lined up for father's day morning though.

 

Dees by heaps and our finals chances to get a percentage boost.

Lock it in Eddie.

Ill go a hot dog please.

Game day !!! Had forgotten until I saw the thread! 
How many times can Dees supporters think off where we’ve won the difficult game ( aints ),  only to give back any advantage , by losing the supposed easier game?

We won’t want to let our guard down this arvo !!!

The Swans can’t score and our defence is peaking, there’s no way we can lose this game. Sydney by 27.

I see there's a bit of MFCSS virus still lurking about Uncle.  Nothing a good Shiraz won't flush out!

I'd recommend giving it a fair shake well before the bounce.  Finished the remainder of my Wolf Blass grey off on the weekend PRIOR to the match and it worked a treat... anxiety quashed!

Demons to win easily

I'm having flashbacks of our loss to them in 2018, but I feel as though we've matured since then.  Plus our back line and overall team defence are in a better spot as well.

Dees by 5 goals.

4:40pm on a Thursday, I could get used to this.

They are missing a significant amount of good players from that team.

Nice leather seat option on the Range Rover there Northern! 

What 4:40???!?! I have a darn client meeting at 4, likely won't be done until 6. I'll just have to watch the rerun on kayo and hopefully I don't see any spoilers

Are we a chance for our lowest ever live television ratings today?

I am a little concerned about Papley. Im not sure who gets the gig but I hope they shut him down.

One day Weid is going to breakout and kick a big bag of yummy goodies. Hope it is today.

Funny time slot. We better win because its not a good look being 3 sheets to the wind b4  5.

 

6 goal margin in our favor which is the same number that Weid kicks as well as the number of comfort franks I eat b4 halftime and the square root of Oliver's possies.

Edited September 2, 20205 yr by leave it to deever

Things to watch for:

Are we running hard enough to defend and reset the zone behind the ball?  This is a key indicator if we are on our game or not.

Are we winning the contest / clearance?  For a team that prides itself on this, we have sucked at this for many weeks now.

Do we have reasonable disposal to advantage, or do we play hot potato?  One works, the other makes me want to spew.

Do we have enough presence forward of the ball to offer a suitable target (s)?

Honestly, if we lose this one, we only have ourselves to blame.  Think it will be 42 points Dees win.

26° at game start and maybe 23° at games end. Humidity is forecast to be 68% which is typical winter conditions up here. 
Breeze blowing to the northern end. It will be a good coin toss for Max to win

We are up against Tour De French Fries highlights, so we are no hope...
