Rd 22 vs Adelaide in Melbourne



Recommended Posts

I wonder whether Nasher can add some Prozac to the Demonland software servers? I'm just about ready to slash my wrists, not because of the MFC situation, but because there are so many "woe-are-us" posters on this site spreading misery like it's a delta strain!

It is called jumping at shadows, we are all starting to get a bit paranoid because of our previous poor treatment and fixturing . Listening to Gus, Gawny and Tracc today they are all up and about and looking forward to the last four games, we should to.

Go Dees. !!!!!!!!!

Well, that was an interesting thread…

Lot of demonlanders looking for an easy excuse to ‘excuse’ the team falling off a cliff 2004 style…

No, the fixture is not an excuse, no COVID isn’t either, training loads 6 weeks ago are not either…

Yeah, not excuses, but aside from flipping open the 'Is Goodwin the right guy' thread, are there any legitimate reasons?

Glad to hear that it was all bulls***, would be nice if reporters actually reported news rather than starting rumours.

Its in the Fixture page details fro Round 22

that's a placeholder. no round 22 games have been confirmed. all matches are subject to change until the league locks them in and confirms.

Yes, of course, Lever gets injured. Petracca’s form continues to nose dive, the forwardline remains schizophrenic and messy.

These are reasons why we may not get to the mountain top.

But they are all within our control, which is always the hardest for us to compute - the FD, the team, the leaders, Goodwin - they hold their fate in their own hands and that is a scary proposition for a group that’s always had good excuses.

No, but that won't stop the panic attacks, the usual suspects go off half cocked on rumors and spit all type of vitriol at the club.

Pfft, damn humans and their feelings and their passion and their unrivalled, unbridled love for  the Dees. What can ya do?! ?

I have spoken with the club and have been assured that the Round 22 Adelaide match will be played in Melbourne at the MCG.

Why would you speak to the club. Wouldn’t it have been better to be a regular Demonland Chicken Little and run with the media’s unconfirmed report as gospel.

You could have accused the club of 

a) Being irrelevant 

b) Bowing to the AFL

c) Putting money before top 4 chances

d) Stuffing the season up all together

No doubt none of these posters will ever jump at shadows again

This will completely throw away any chance of Dees fans getting to see them play live in Melbourne before the start of finals. I know crowds are going to be a slow burn anyway but hardly a fan friendly decision. I totally get the reasons behind it, the club has taken a tough hit on our bank accounts but it still isn’t a great look for a club that’s pushing for premiership contention. 

Good reason for as many as possible to show support at Geelong

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
