We haven’t had one of these fun threads this season and it’s worked so far.

Disclaimer : This topic commenced later than the Days Since Last Loss thread. Days Since Last Loss thread is now the rightful owner of the word ‘jinx’ should we lose. :)

Fire away....

….be surprised, but a heck of a lot less surprised than most years.

This demons side is as legit as I've ever seen, and it's a wonderful thing to experience.

But win or lose I won't go read too much into it. 
Beating both grand finalists in April would be nice, but I'd rather beat them in September.

Be releaved that the side is finally starting to live up to its potential.

To be honest, I won't be that surprised as we really should have beaten Richmond in at least one of our encounters in the last few years.

Time we stop being intimidated by these sides.  Richmond are good, but they are not invincible.

On a serious note, I will have true belief we have what it takes to go the whole way.

Richmond are the measuring stick and they showed great form last week. We'll need to bring out best

Hope we don’t shoot ourselves in the foot against North the following week.

This would be the most Melbourne thing that could happen .... the old Melbourne (I hope).

Be surprised, due to our 6 day break and their 9 days.

but very happy, and in for a noisy celebration in Stumps

Haha I thought we’d pleasantly left these threads behind us. 
 

I’ll shave my head like Nathan Jones and walk down Main Street, Woodend in nothing but demons gear for the day.

... immediately give the middle digit to all of my mates, my work colleagues, various general acquaintances, strangers on the street, anyone who’s given me carp over the last 20 years for supporting the Demons - and then remind all of those people that I told them that we’d win the flag this year and that they know nothing, before drinking all the booze in Victoria in one single session.

That’s how I’d roll.

It’d probably lead to a few regrets by Monday morning. And possibly also a little bit of time spent at her Majesty’s pleasure.

    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.

Still no number on Campbell’s

    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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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
