NON MFC: Rd 02 2021


Demonland

Recommended Posts

Entertaining game to watch and I’m sure enjoyable for the players. Reminds me of an all-star game, ball zipping around the G, bruise free footy, good goal-kicking practice.

Neither of these teams play finals this year.

You're wrong

You've just become accustomed to congested garbage (like many others)

What do you want? ... 6 goals vs 5 goals for a whole match with a million stoppages and no ball movement

I'd rather eat a ****t sandwich that watch scramble-ball

I don't how you lot kept watching the boundary hugging negative garbage that was served up for 5+ years.

Scramble ball with a million stoppages.

Ugh

Anti-football and you kept watching?  Easily pleased or just plain addicted

These threads on the other games are getting a stack more traffic than in previous years.  Usually full of people moaning incessantly about umpiring decisions

And it's not about the extra goals either ... attacking footy slam dunks congested boundary hugging rubbish every day of the week

Enjoy!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder as they say.

A little more pressure for mine.

I’m glad you’re enjoying the game Macca.

Agree with this. Enjoyable game to watch, but both these clubs have significant issues and I don't have either in my top 8.

If you don't like it turn it off then (I'll bet you don't!)

As previously stated,  you've become accustomed to congested footy so much that now you miss it. 

We humans are like that!  We are creatures of habit

And it is not bruise-free either ... fast attacking footy was the norm for decades and it was never classed as bruise-free in that time.  

You play in front of your man in a game like this and you can still get thumped in the back of the head (repeatedly)

No room for the faint-hearted out there even though the congested garbage is at a minimum

And where's all the kicking backwards and time wasting tactics? Another blight on the sport that might be a thing of the past

Anti-football and bloody boring

No fights in the crowd either is my guess ... the eyes are glued to the actual game

One simple man on the mark rule changes things for the better ... who would have thought?

Teams are compelled to attack otherwise they lose

Relax Macca. I’m not having a pop at you. Each to their own.

That first half had a training drill vibe to it. You won’t see that in finals.

Enjoy the rest of the game.

I totally disagree though 'Betters' ... I did not see it (the first half) as a training drill in any way shape or form

I see the game tonight as a return to the way footy was once played

You are half right though ... I am still fuming and angry about the dross that has been served up in the last 5 years or so. 

You watch the ratings and crowds soar if we keep seeing footy like we're seeing tonight.  Covid got the viewers back but ultimately the game needs to entertain the masses

The Pies have enough talented players to feature in the finals ... they're not a flag threat but they've got about the same chance of playing finals as what we have

One could argue that they have a better forward line and we break even in the midfield.  We might have a better backline

Carlton lack composure & poise ... 8-9 wins max

Hearing the commentators raving about Darcy Moore being the best defender in the AFL as Mckay kicks his 4th on him a minute later.

Steven May is the best defender in the league you cretins.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
