What do Demonlander fans think of a new Tassie team? 

Is a hot political potato down here as we come to an election. The Premier asked the new team to move the date of team launch - a week before the election - so as not to distract from issues.

People who say we should spend the money on healthcare and education do not understand the nature of politics.

They also don't realise that most AFLW players have 2nd jobs in education, nursing and other healthcare professions.

Most naysayers have likely never been to the G.

Go Dees

    Yeah look, Devils is nowhere near close to Demons.

    It clearly refers to the animal. There is zero doubt in this, right guys?

    Great name. Logical choice.

    Selfishly, I’m not looking forward to the drafting and recruiting chaos it will cause. The whole league gets shaken up to introduce a new team and I’m not in love with the idea of doing this for a team that’ll be all of the locals’ “2nd favourite team”.

    Having said all of that, I think it is a wise choice for future economic benefit in the state and will benefit the next generation. Early years will be strange though.

    Anybody want to bet against the Tassie team

    a)  wearing a predominantly dark green jumper and

    b)  being nicknamed "The Devils"?

    Nobody took the bet.

    I'm stunned at the latest news.  Amazed and in disbelief I tell yas.

    F#@% Warner Brothers - that they could take out some garbage trademark over one of our national animals is absurd, similar to that of ugg boots (which will probably feature heavily in the official Tassie Devils merchandise).

    So, really, on the basis of their shared "aggressive non-viral, transmittable parasitic cancer with lesions or lumps in and around the mouth," and their general demeanour, the natural rivals for the Tasmanian Devils would be...

    Devils & Demons. Has to be a Good Friday game, surely? 😉

    I'd have called them the Tassie Wild. Styled in the vein of the Minnesota Wild in the NHL. Their look and jumpers would have worked perfectly. A waste.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
