    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.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
