    Excellent outcome. Hopefully the day we wrap up a top 4 spot.

    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. !!!!!!!!!

    It seemed to work for the New Zealand cricket team.  They once were worriers.

    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.

    This is not an ideal lead in to finals if true, the supporters definitely have PTSD from what happened in Darwin last season...

    What did happen???

    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?! ?

    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

    If cases behave themselves, we should finally get back to the G with 25,000 capacity.

    If Andrews has designs on keeping the 2021 grand final, he's going to have to let crowds in by the second last round of the year or the AFL's going to Perth. Pure and simple.

    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

    I know it’s not the clubs fault all this Covid manure however, the Victorian government can go f….k itself.  I’m so over this nonsense of no football games and more money wasted.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
