I would love to see the cats get absolutely crushed but I would love to see us doing the crushing.

2018 finals win over the cats was a real highlight for me.

I'm vexed. I really hate Geelong and I've put money on the giants before Hogan got pulled.

Vexed!

It's Friday night. The weekend is ahead and your footy team is safely into a Preliminary final. There's a game on tonight, two sides battling for the privilege of facing yours. You've had a hard week's work, and met a big deadline. You've just come home from a long run, and there's cold beer and warm chicken. You've just had a nice warm shower. Your playlist has shuffled its way through to "These Days" by Powderfinger.

Just wondering - do you live in Vic?

if so, you’re positivity is impressive!

Exercise is the key. It doesn't matter what's going on in my life, if I'm not exercising regularly I'm not happy. At least COVID hasn't taken that from me.

The Demons playing well helps too.

Any chance of more than 2 goals being kicked in the first Q? The Cats are going to drain the life out of this one

Barely a Giants fan in the stadium (probably normal really), so yet another reason to want the Giants to get up, as the support will then be stacked for the Dees next week. C'mon Giants.

I've got this really strong feeling the Giants are going to cause a massive boil over here. i've had it all week. noone expects them to win so they'll just go for it, and the cats are under all the pressure in the world, the Giants pressure, combined with external pressure could easily break the cats

The Giants suffer more injuries than any other team. They just can't consistently get all their team on the ground at the same time. I hope they are able to muster some more fight and make the cats earn it tonight. Worst case is an easy Geelong win. I want to face a tired and weary Geelong next weekend

Looking forward to see a lot of hammies and suspensions for the winner of this game.

I'm feeling the same way. Let's see if we're both feeling that in 10 minutes time. I thought Essendon would boil over the Doggies last week, so I'm not trusting my instincts.

You've got to question their conditioning regime at this point. Even collision injuries have an element of preventability - high game awareness and good judgment.

How many blokes can Mummy injury in 4 quarters? surely if Geelong win, they'll have to quite literally limp through

Have GWS changed their primary home jumper? I've seen it earlier in the year but figured it to be a clash jumper. It's better.

Danger with the oil again. What a figjam. Hope it doesn't drip on your boots cause you can't kick straight at the best of times mate.

Was only a few weeks ago red hot favourites Geelong ran into an injury ravaged GWS and got towelled up convincingly.

    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
