Can someone tell Petracca we won. Jesus. 

That's a bloke who knows that the job isn't done.  That's the maturity we want.  Be happy with the win, but we need to focus on next week very quickly.

Shows us that he knew the pressure was on us, knew we were not good enough in Cairns, and knows it's not done yet.

Funny - if he's going on about how great we are people would criticise him for overcelebrating, wouldn't they?

Shame on you @dazzledavey and anyone else who wanted us to lose.

I might get upset with things at the club but always want my boys to win

Love Rivers and again Spargo showed his worth

So the way I see it, we need the Hawks to pull their finger out tomorrow, but if not, either the Saints/Dockers winning sees us make the finals (to most likely be embarrassed by a better team, but hey, you never know)?

Silly me, getting ahead of myself, we also need to win a crunch, do or die, game against a really poor team...

Both right. Just his tone sounded liked we'd lost.

I’ve said it before but I love Langers, his kicking less so.  He was so important in that last quarter.

You have to wonder if we had snuck a bye in like everyone else over the last 8 weeks if we’d have got over the line in at least one of those other games. 

The energy level was considerably different tonight.

100% 

The exact right approach. We're in a position we shouldn't have been, and we have a lot of work still to do.

Wonderful recruit.  He was everything we needed on the wing.

Now, if someone like Baker can also step up to play a consistent game on the wing, then we would REALLY have something.

Any chance of the Hawks pulling off a hail Mary tomorrow?

Or a GCS win would be almost as good. Pies have Port in the last round. Both would be ideal!

If only the whole game was just that last quarter. The rest of it made me feel sick. They tried to cheat us out of the win but the boys found a way. Thanks Rivers, Langdon, Trac, Spargo, May....add who you want.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
