1. Hypothetically, we lose the Prelim. You've got angry, you've got sad, you've blamed Tmac and Spargo, and perhaps the umpires and coach....Time has passed - in the cold harsh light of objectivity - will you be satisfied with the Season of 2021
- Yes

- No

- I'll still have thoughts about 'Is Goodwin The Right Guy?'

Things that annoy me is that so many teams won it before us. Sydney won it in 2005. When Cats won it, it was hard because although we’d been heckled for our lack of success more, we could always say that Cats have suffered longer. Then when dogs won, we inherited the longest-continuing premiership drought.

Clubs like Collingwood had the audacity to claim that 2010 broke a “drought.” Especially from people who went through the long “Colliewobbles” era, this seemed almost an insult. It was 20 years, a colour grand final and and AFL premiership. That’s not a drought. Real Collingwood fans know what a drought is.

Now I see Geelong fans saying they’ve “waited a long time” for their next premiership. No, sorry 1963-2007 was a long time. This is nothing. They don’t really need or are starved for a premiership. We’re the ones in a drought. We want, deserve and need this more than any other club. I will just tear my hair out if any of these other teams win. They’ve had their turn now they think they have the audacity to claim that they have been waiting a long time.

Its our turn. We need to win it for the fans. We will have to give everything and want it more. It’s not going to be given to us. They have to fight tooth and nail for this. Like someone else said here: CUP OR BUST.

There are a few who will never be satisfied.

If they were at least happy with MFC, then they wouldn't attack me, "barrack for Gold Coast you stange person, with a bad attitude".

Still can't believe there are many nasty people in this world and a few on demonland.

Should be ashamed of yourselves, almost a disgrace, living the lie behind your pretentious facades.

No, I wouldn’t be satisfied. Contextually we have the best chance of winning a premiership in almost 6 decades. So I won’t be happy walking away with a participation ribbon.

Don’t celebrate ‘almost’.

One can never be satisfied losing to Geelong

At half time during the last cats game im pretty sure i would have said yes.

But becoming minor premiers for the first time in since 64...its a now a firm no.

And beating the cats from being so far behind at kardinia I feel we must win tonight.

Id be satisfied to make a granny as then i feel we are improving but nobody loses them without feeling gutted.

So its to the toppermost from here.

It's a big NO.

We gotta aim to win the Premiership.

1964 was a bloody long time ago!

C'mon Demons! Break that Premiership drought!

Fingers crossed! 🤞

GO DEMONS!!!

F&^& no

Not Satisfied. I would be heartbroken.

At least I feel very proud of where we are now as a club - but 2021 would count for nought unless we win this year and/or we don't at least maintain this level of consistency and competiveness for the next few years.

September 10, 20214 yr

I won't be throwing the toys out of the cot if we don't win the flag this year. We've shown how far we've come this year and it will be no doubt inaccuracy rather than ability/system/talent that sees us fall short which is a good sign for future years given our list profile and talent at our disposal.

But if we then proceed to fade back into oblivion next year and beyond, well that's another story.

September 10, 20214 yr

I would have answered this question differently a week ago but if we lose tonight, I will be royally [censored] off !!!!

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
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.
