The footy gods are all powerful.

But not above some mischief making, as Eddie 'my old mate (insert some rich blokes name here)' McGuire recently found out.

    Fabulous. Let loose all red and blue critters from the woodwork!

    Whilst I was excited after beating Geelong and we finished on top, for me as a supporter it’s a flag or bust. I’m sure the players would give up any individual awards if it guaranteed us a flag. Having said I truly believe this is our year and we can have it all.

    How awesome!

    hopefully some of their fans get to the prelim and support us and make some noise! Even if they wear their west Perth gear it’s still red and blue!

    Great read, thanks.

    Sensational synergy with the West Perth Football Club.  Couldn't have scripted it better: 

    West Perth Football Club welcomed the Demons to its facility: “It seems only appropriate we throw our support behind the red and the blue. Same song, same colours, rich history and we are on the band wagon,” the club posted on Facebook.

    And the team is staying at the nearby Joondalup. 

    Well done to local dee fans: "WA-based Melbourne supporters club Western Demons secretary Joan Lawson, of Duncraig, said she would ring Joondalup Resort to ask if they could tie red and blue ribbons around the trees to “let the players know we’re here”.

    While the team won't see us parading our colours to training etc it is good to know they will be surrounded by red and blue.    

    Reckon we will be the sentimental favourites for the rest of our WA journey!  Can't wait for the Prelim.

    I'm not so sure about that. Premierships are so hard to win and we've got a potential opponent who's in just as good a form as us in Port Adelaide. Alternatively,  if the Dogs somehow beat Port, well then we're playing a team in arguably hotter form than Port as they would've won 3 finals in 3 different states.

    Most scribes predicted us to miss the 8 and most of us supporters had us finishing 5th - 8th with a finals win being a rock solid performance. 

    We've exceeded expectations and a confirmed top 4 finish. And a fantastic launching pad for an assault on the next 3 to 5 premierships.

    If we don't win it this year it's not a failure IMO. Our list profile suggests we're going to be in the mix for the immediate coming years.

    I’ve posted this previously on a different thread.
    Ports losses in 2021

    Rd 3 Eagles by 37 WA
    Rd 7 Lions by 49 QLD
    Rd 9 Dogs by 19 AO
    Rd 13 Cats by 21 AO
    Rd 17 Dees by 31 AO

    Ports last 4weeks : 

    Beat crows by 4 points 

    Beat Carlton by 95, Carlton had no Cripps, Williams, McKay
    Curnow 2nd game back after a year.
    Murphy farewell game after playing reserve’s most of season.

    Beat Dogs by 2 after trailing all game. Dogs without Bruce. 

    Had we lost to Geelong in rd 23 Port would of finished on top having not beaten 2nd, 3rd or 4th. 

    Yes they comfortably beat Geelong last week but I wouldn’t personally describe their form as good as ours. This year has shown they have struggled against the top teams. I actually think if Lions will beat the Dogs and give Port a decent run.
     

    As for the flag this year, we’ve been the best side all year, we’ve beaten every other team in the top 8, some of them twice. Think we’re the only team to do that. We have an injury free list, Petty has been settled in the side for the best part of 15-16 weeks. We have season regulars like Hibberd, Jordan and Hunt currently not playing. We have the best defence, we kept the highest scoring side (a team that beats up on weaker opponents) to a score of 60. We are settled in Perth, if we’re lucky enough to win next week our GF opponent will have to travel as well. We will have played back to back at Optus. Barring major injury or total mental breakdown this is our year, along with the next 4-5.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
