4.40 on a Thursday....  thats mental.

Anyways we have to show up today switched on or we will get beaten.  Swans recently had that big upset over GWS which is enough to make any Dee fan nervous.

Melbourne to bring home the bacon by 37 points

 

Finish work at 4:30pm and overtime won't even be a consideration. Hope the cops see my membership sticker, understand the conundrum I am in and wave me through or escort me home. But I think alot of them are Saints supporters, I'm screwed.

    Why is 7mate available in NSW and ACT but not in Victoria 

    Absolutely disgraceful 

    Well for those of us in NSW and ACT it is a small compensation for getting the free to air slots filled with Sydney & GWS games all the season,  leaving few slots for other games, thus reducing the chances of a MFC match to almost 0.

    I just wish the AFL would produce an AFL-only service.  I'm only interested in AFL not 500 other sports.  I don't want to spend a lot on Fox or Kayo for stuff I have no interest in.

    Not only unaware of this option, but can't see where you select it. Advice please Binman.

     

    Sorry sue. Just saw this.

    Its not an option. I wish it was. I hope it will be

    I've asked demonland to use his social media clout to start a viral, online campaign to convince kayo to include it as a replay option.

    Many Demonlanders have their wish - Harmes will play in the midfield. 

    That’s great. But does that mean Smith will play in defence? If so, that’s gross.

    Just to clarify Bin: the behind-the-goals option is available during live broadcasts but not replay? Not sure if sue was asking re. the former and where to find it? 

    Should win comfortably but my MFCSS is tingling. Short break after a long day doing the fly in/out game in Alice, bus trip to Brizzy then a decent flight to Cairns. In any other season I'd say we were stuffed.

    Are we talking AFL live pass,Kayo or Foxtel

    I have not seen it on Kayo but happy to be corrected

    In Nsw myself and yep we get a lot of swannies games on mate.

    Kayo is good value at 25 per month.( I've paid that for parking at the SCG)..its cheeper than foxtel. You can always split it with a mate and use the same account.?

    No sorry, skuit. It is not available live or in replay. Apologies for the confusion

    I mentioned replay because i'd  love to watch a replay of our games just with  the behind the goals angle, which apparently they record and provide to the AFL teams so they use for their analysis and reviews.

    So if they have the vision why not provide it to customers (with or without commentary) . 

     Live would also be a great  option actually as if it was option i could imagine i'd toggle between shots so i could see what is ahead of the ball or to check out match ups or structures.

    Gates open in 1 hour.  Nearly ready to head off.  Nights have been cool so wearing long pants for the first time in 6 months.  It is currently warm and windy.  I am not excited, I'm hysterical. 

    Now c'mon the Dees.

    I'm a digibeet but had the overseas watchafl pass and would occasionally cast it from my computer to a television. Anyways.

    We're not flying from Maroochydore to Cairns?

    Under normal circumstances (and things are anything but normal both for the AFL and for Virgin Australia), Virgin has direct flights from Maroochydore to Cairns.

    Looking forward to those going keeping us up to date on this thread

    Before the Bounce was interesting 

    The Swannettes are Number 1 for Tackles

    The Demons are Number 18 for Tackles

    I used to do that, but they found a way of preventing you doing it.

    Feeling quietly optimistic about this one, pretty sure we've never lost to Sydney whilst playing in Cairns.

    I really hope chronic nervousness can be resolved, why am I never confident going into a game. I have no reason to be nervous and yet still I can't see us getting over the line. 

    MFCSS is debilitating!!

    In all seriousness, I generally like the changes and think the team is in relatively good form. The four day break combined with some possible humid/hot weather might play a part but considering sydney are on the same level, no excuses can be made. 

    Come on dees!

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
