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

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
