Have heard the crowd will be pro Demons. I hope so.

Perhaps some Perth Dlanders have a clue?

Too early to tell but what would be the reason for this speculation. Tix sold?

In the city centre at the moment for lunch and a nerve settler before heading to the ground and it's looking very close to 50/50 supporter split.

My wife has outdone herself.

Footy franks

Sausage rolls

Kfc.

All the comfort food I need. I just wish there was some left.

I wonder how the players the are?

Its always fun to watch them line up and sing the anthem .

The nerves probably stay with them for most of the first as they run the nervous energy out of their system. But until then we usually see quite a few clangers and poor diposals. Will be harder on the younger players.

On the otherhand after being locked up for two weeks they are probably keen to just be out and about.

I so hope we get a great jump on them and keep a 30 point plus lead over them all day.

The bus is on its way .

Can now reveal under Freedom of information legislation (thank you Premier McGowan) on AFL Grand Final morning. That your Top End correspondents have managed to ‘negotiate’ the WA frontier and have been ‘embedded’ in the Demons campaign here in Perth.

We will endeavour as representatives of demon land to be on our ‘best’ behaviour all day and honour the traditional proprieties but there are no guarantees after the siren🚨
 

Just to give you folks back in the demon heartland some local colour.

Former captain Gary Lyon is ensconced in the Crown Casino Towers, a little too rich for us humble folk down here at ground zero in an air b&b.

We have ‘co-mingled’ as much as is possible with the troops and can report team morale is high and the preparation for ‘battle’ is at an absolute optimum.

The locals are ‘abuzz’ with the prospect of a Perth based Grand Final. With a perceptible groundswell of support for the red and the blue. 

The local media coverage with Ben Cousins redemption prominent, the Nik Nat and Nat show is in full swing. As expected the eagles and dockers don’t seem to disappear with seemingly acres of column space devoted to their post-season trivia. Just inside the back pages. 

Of the local demonland identities? 


We are on the lookout for a vintage Ford Mustang on high revs, screaming about the Swan river escarpment. But alas no sightings as yet, besides the public transport infrastructure has improved significantly since our last visit. 

When we bravely stood on the terraces at Subiaco to barrack on Robbie Flower resplendent in the Big White V.

Pennant St Dee and Chook are indubitably out there and will be in attendance. Although we are reliably informed DannyZ up early for breakfast  has apparently choked on his porridge.

 

The son  and heir and his wife are there with tickets. They have been fully briefed and are ready to roll.

Channel 7 just showed the team bus on the way to the ground.

That just kicked up the nerves.

Just had a 10km radius walk down at the G and it was so great to see some other fellow Dees fans about. Everything within reason of course but honestly it was just great to see some Dees fans around up and about.

Might leave that until Monday, might be a bit unsafe doing it after a few drinks tonight

Arrived at my dads. Never seen him this excited. Yeah even wearing the Halloween nurse costume (thank goodness I wasn’t stopped by police! Dunno how I would have explained that) as I am official a ‘carer.’ 
This could be the best day of our lives or the worst. Just so glad we could be together. Brothers are on Skype. It’s a real family affair ❤️

I just hope you end up having to wear your hair like Sailor Moon for the whole of next week!!!

Enjoy the match with your Dad!

GO DEES! ❤️💙

    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
