Not enough injuries.

Glad we dodged the Port bullet.

Totally unfair to have teams have no Home Ground advantage but QLD and SA teams do. Should have both Prelims in Perth / especially since GF will be there.

That man is not a real bad substitute 

Yes, Powell-Pepper came on and executed very well. However, need to keep it in perspective. At that stage of the game Geelong were cooked, it was like stealing candy from a baby stout from a pensioner.

Cry me a river [censored]-cats... Seriously though, talk about creating a culture of failure. A supposedly star-studded team once again fails miserably to look convincing in the finals series, despite their awful "track-record" of gaining frees incessantly, and for an illegitimate reasons...

 

 

…. and getting away with at least a dozen throws a game.

Aside from Duncan getting touches on HB, the Cats were horrible! Selwood ineffectual with 17. Danger average. Henderson with one of the worst ever games I’ve seen. 

should have been an 80 point win but for the umps going 20-8 before evening it up and Port being inaccurate 

what a beautiful thing. 

Port are good. High pressure, good contested ball with quality outside run. We will have to beat them to win the flag and I think we will

strange game last night...

Geelong key forwards miss several easy shots and Fantasia and Motlop kick seven odd goals between them.

Hopefully Spargo and Harmes do the same for us tonight not to mention Daniher kicking 4 behinds.

Cats to play Swans or Giants who have both accounted for Geelong this year.

They were lucky the umps stopped them being blown away.

Quite possible out next week.

Morning footy news check - done.

 A few comments while reading through Demonland - check.

2 hours of meditative relaxing via mowing, weeding, sweeping - check.

Cheese platter purchased for tonight's game - check (yep, we decided to do it to shove it right up all the "to-the-snow-in-September" trolls)

My dearly departed dad was a mad Swannies man, so I sit down to watch them take on gws - AND IT DOESN'T START UNTIL 3.30PM!! I hate all the pre-game drivel. So with coffee in hand, Demonland up and active, I now have to listen to Cameron Ling for an hour! At least Daisy is good to listen to.

The old adage a weeks a long time in footy...

Cats were almost eight goals up at home with a minor premiership in their sight but now they face gws or swans who have both beaten them.

I find re-watching the final 47 seconds of last weeks game is a great way to kill time

I still believe that Port have a soft underbelly. They have some pretend tough guys. If we play them at some stage I think we should target Butters and Roezee physically. We are better than them!

This will be a great game.

Giants to pinch it by a goal.

Toby a day out.

Is Hogan playing?

Sure is…in his first final.

Hoping for a GWS win. Sydney worry me more than them

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
