I read that it’s been a last minute deal. Jump onto your AFL Live app and there is a new banner for the live stream. I’ve included a few screen shots below!

Hopefully this works for you!

Thanks heaps Wiz. I'm assuming now that I can at least watch it on my phone. Maybe you can also help with my other dilemma? Just moved into a new place and don't have a washing machine yet. Due to being busy, have let the clothes pile up a bit this past week, so all that I have left now is one t-shirt. It's in our red & blue, but has some unfortunate white stripes on it as well.

A) Should I burn it and go directly to the shops for a replacement? B) Take it off and just be half-naked and bare-chested for the game? C) Hand-wash some clothes now and maybe deal with being a bit damp and smelly? or D) stop being superstitious and just get on with life and enjoy our grand final win?

If anyone at the ground picks up the special badges with members surnames on them maybe stick a pic on here to give those members stuck at home a little boost. Never know, someone might see their family name.

 

Mmm...random stuff to ponder with 4 hours to go...

I quite like Luke as a coach, but when did he become a genius?  What's with THAT narrative in the media? 

Is Goodwin not a marginally better genius? Where's the print on that?

Just rewatched all episodes of "to hell and back" because what else will pass the time...

That moment when Maysie did the final crab walk with kossie and all the boys cheering when they got across the line on the beach. Hit me right in the feels. 

I am not okay today haha 

I remember commenting on here after that, there is a premiership in these boys. Tonight please.

Hey EO . . . he's one of us remember. And anyone that can get Boyd and Schache to play well in finals has got to have something going for him. 

Half [censored] and still 4 hrs to go .Picked the wrong week to give up sniffing laundry powder

I am incredibly superstitious - so anything but D!!!

Not at all stifling, but I could probably survive without a t-shirt for a couple of hours. If it gets cold I have a blue jumper on stand-by. Wearing the club colours hasn't at all served me well in the past. 


Just watched Jonesy on channel 7. 
 

Ugly cry watch today: 3 

There’s something very satisfying about watching Brereton forced into saying positive things about us.

He’s still going on about how reliant we are on Gawn, and he’d rather the Dogs’ game plan, blah blah blah. Can’t be TOO positive. But we’ve made a grand final. He pretty much has to concede, once and for all, that we’re a damn good TEAM.

Engage full nuffy mode. Go Demons!!!

Are people avoiding or engaging in the Game Day Thread during the match?

Might be time for the Any Given Sunday speech. 
 

go Dees! 
 

my 13 and 10 year olds were hard sells when they were born into the mire but I trust tonight will be worth it.


Interesting the focus on the 'grand final' experience differential between the two teams. Most media outlets are reporting 7-1 in favour of The Bulldogs...

I am surprised they have forgotten this immense occasion, and the exposure to pressure matches that this gave TMac, Nibbler, Gus, Petracca, Fritsch and Harmsey.

I'm an emotional wreck.

I've been so positive all week but I'm on edge atm.

I am so bitter and angry.

Lockdown never, ever again. I am over it officially now. Done.

This isn't living. Sitting at home on a couch, no celebration. No "being". I'm trying to make it a day of celebration but it's tough.

@Dee Zephyr

Could you create a thread for badges mate? We're allowed to grab 5 badges per person (our group of 4 will grab 20) but not sure where I was going to post the pics..

Will post them everywhere and anywhere if some one sees there name.

Go Dee's

I’m certain that Rob Sitch is a Demons supporter, but I’m sure I just saw him finish his American News segment on the ABC News channel, shouting “Go Dogs!!”… what’s with that??

He is mate.


Sitting at empire pub down the road from optus, haven't had nerves all week.. now I feel sick 😅

Go Dees 🟥🟦

Starting to feel pretty nervous now!

Going to do some stuff around the house and then get some food and drinks.

Time to fire up!!!

GO DEMONS!!!!

 

So i just placed an order for the signed gurnesy for $2070 including postage. Im a part-time Aged Care nurse who really cant afford to squander money like that but what the hell.

This is a one-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

I will worry about the money later.

 

GO DEES !!!!

The wait is intolerable.

My mind keeps drifting to what should be happening right now in a "normal" year. It'd be close to half time. We'd all mostly either be at the G, at an MFC arranged event, or with family/friends somewhere.

But it is what it is.

If we lose, I know there will be certain posters who will be upset and their posts will reflect that. But a loss today doesn't erase the joy the club gave us throughout an enormously difficult year. Yes it will hurt, but I hope that Demonland doesn't flip from being the positive, supportive and embracing community it is right now, to a forum clogged with bitterness and anger.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
