Yeah, the same virus the bulldogs had in the last half of the grand final................. The Demon Variant.

As a Geelong resident I am yet to meet a local cats supporter who welcomes Scott's re appointment. 

But I dont hear steven wells copping it for woeful recruiting and list management over the past 6 or so years. Resting on his laurels from the excellent list build of 16 years ago. 

I suspect the cats hierarchy see change is needed and moved him sideways and installed andrew mackie now in the key role.

    I agree with you certainly over the past few years but I still have my favourites. The "filth" and the "druggies" in no particular order. Horethorn closing in quickly.

    They are now saying that the PF flogging was all to do with a virus that swept through 6 of their players.  IIRC we were struck down with Flu the weekend of 186 but it was never used as an excuse.

    Well they have to come up with some excuse for their members to swallow for their PATHETIC performance  

    It just makes me laugh at the bs coming out. 

    Wonder what bs they will come out with next season when we beat them again on their home turf. 

    They are a bunch of entitled sooks and it starts with the coach, captain and players. 

    God I hate geelong.

    The belting we give them in 2022 followed by Scott getting the sack.

    Aren’t they dutybound under OHS rules  to notify AFL medicos and MFC medicos they are sending potentially sick players out there. 
    They only had a minor final - we had a Grand Final to play. 
    What if Trac and Fritter got infected with cat flu?

    You would know if they had -- they'd immediately look 20 years older

    Simple. Beating the filth by a point after the siren in a grand final.

    I struggle with this.

    I'm never sure whether  (1) I want to crush Collingwood from the opening bounce, or, (2) just remain a goal or so ahead of them for the whole game just to keep their hopes alive only to have them crushed at the end, or, (3) be something like 7 goals down at three-quarter time only to overpower them at the end.

    Hmmmmm .... let's try out all three and see which sits best. Might have to do each one two or three times to be sure.

    Smashing them as we did in the prelim must go close.

    Sorry I just read the other post that mentions this. 

    Cant delete so I'll just add the cats have had it over us for a long time and it's great we have totally turned it around in only one season.

    Edited by leave it to deever

    Already returned.

    83 with the last ten mins with May, Lever, Oliver, Petracca, and Gawn on the bench.

    That’s humiliation. We kicked them over the cliff.

    You guys are all too hard on the cats. They are just super unlucky. WA had only 1 flu case in the entire 8 week period leading up to the prelim, and despite being in isolation they managed to pick it up and have it run through their entire team.  You wouldn’t read about it.

    https://ww2.health.wa.gov.au/~/media/Corp/Documents/Health-for/Infectious-disease/Notifiable-diseases/2021/Week-38-statewide-notifiable-disease-report.pdf

    Or maybe they heard about the 1 case of leprosy in WA for that period and thought it was one of our players, as they didn’t seem keen to lay a finger on us.

    I've thought for a while Wells was overrated - made his name off one or two drafts (1999? and 2001) and some very lucky father son picks. His record outside that was very hit and miss.

    Nah - just belt them. No excuses, no blaming the umpires, no flicker of hope.

And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around?

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
