I don’t know why, but this has really hit home for me. I’ve been posting on here (mostly garbage) since 2005 and my life has changed a lot in that time but Demonland has been a constant throughou

This is surreal.    I’m going to a GF in Perf that my beloved Demons are playing in.    Giddy up!! 🔴🔵💪

Too distracted to post much of late. I think we win, and win pretty easily in the end. Objectively the bookies have got the price right at 1.65 (it has been the quote for two weeks now).

Dogs didn't make it to the grand final by accident. Was always going to be a battle. May not right it seems, and that in itself is enough to swing it their way. But a few unsighted: Langdon not being Langdon is surprising, but Tom Mac might as well not be out there (except he takes their second defender, which isn't saying much.)

Not sure here - they have not just the talent, but the experience.

Terrified, the one thing I felt I could trust all year is falling down. How many scores from entries did the Dogs get? 

Not executing, for some reason the jitters came in that quarter. The one thing I take out of it is it happened early. I really hope that is the Bulldogs best shot fired. I hope our fitness takes over, I hope we get more clean footy in the 50 and kick more goals.

Umps clearly told to make it a close game. Just disgraceful.

Pressure is off, f50 connection and i50 pressure is off.. contested possessions off. Lots of bad stats taking shape. 
 

Only positive thing is that our i50 count is healthy. But we don’t have good structure and the Doggies murdering us in the rebound transition.

Just can't see us winning. Never could. This Dogs team at their absolute best was always better than our best. We were just better for longer throughout the season. They are a super, super team.

This feels like a repeat of round 19, not round 11.

Not looking good right now.

Dogs could not have had a better quarter, remain calm.

That’s true. I don’t think they can replicate this.

Viney killed the momentum with that kick into the forward line that quarter, why the hell did he not get in front of bont to stop his run.

It really is up to Oliver, Viney and Tracc they must get back control of the stoppages. Hopefully May settles down, really struggling tonight.

How do we stop it. My fear is they now know their pressure game beats ours, because their skills are better. More contributors needed.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
