1.10 is worse then right on Mothers day Lunches

I could think of nothing better to do on mothers than go to the G and watch this one unfold.  

 

I'm not a mother though so what would I know

We’ve beaten this mob once at the MCG since the 2006 elimination final.

Saints on an 8 day break should have recovered from their Cairns trip.

Really hoping we can bank this win as we have some tough fixtures between rounds 11 and 15. Would love to be 10-0 before we face Sydney and Freo at the G.

We can afford to lose 4 games this year IMO in order to finish top 2. Would rather not use one up today.

Would you happen to have the breakdown of many times we’ve played them at the G since then? We rolled them last year but that was at Marvel.

Yeah, we don’t do Mother’s Day at mine. 
Apparently we do game day…

Now to work out whose work this is: the hipster uni student or the bedroom-dwelling, PS5-playing teenager. 🤔 

LOL found these in the bottom of the wrapping. They know I lose/break earbuds on a weekly basis.

This haven't been tested B/S. The doggies threw everything at us and come up short. As did the Suns Hawk and Tigers. Port is the only team that rolled over.

Bit too much taking in the media puffing up the Saints. We win this by 27 points.

They just want a bit of excitement. "Best team wins again" is dull compared to "so-called best team is vulnerable" or "pretenders toppled from top of ladder."

Wayward Saints seeking salvation. Last seen sliding for a slither of soap in slippery northern slimes. 

Scraping like seagulls in a slather for seemingly senseless seconds searching for a slim score.

Media mogul machinations on Mother’s Day may mirror minor minds.

Determined Demons dastardly dash delusions of disorientated  delinquent delight.

Saints or sinners saved for slaughter by the last quarter.

I was more talking about posters in here believing it.

I don’t have the breakdown handy but I believe St Kilda have won 8 of our last 9 meetings at the G.

Nervous as all hell.

(I hated mothers day; something always came 'unstuck' and then it was on....)

Mothers Day is just the creation of Hallmark and retailers. Surely every day should be considered Mothers Day.

Don't get me started on "Secretaries Day"

A cynical money grab by the florist industry.

Expecting to win well.

At some point we drop a few games during the season.

Still when look at quality across ground 

Backs - May Lever Petty Brayshaw Bowey

Mids - Max Trac Clarry Langdon 

Forwards - Fritsch Brown

Running power - ANB Kossie Spargo Sparrow Hunt

Add system and we look very hard to beat!

Go Demons!

    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
