Personally I don't think that we should be in any way led down this path, because this is a no return if we let the media push this button to suit themselves.I see us as a team that is having an exceptional run of wins and that's all.We haven't done anything other than win regularly.

No doubt discuss but everything should be objective.

    I was lucky enough to be there with my oldest Demon mate (Dave) when Max said this. Unforgettable and inspirational.

    It's not only Loyd either.  Turn on just about any footy show and they all sing our praises.

    Rewind just a few years ago to mid-late 2020 or worse still mid-late 2019 and the media would have been telling a completely different story about us.  Just goes to show how fine the line is and how fickle the media can be.

    It's also weird how quickly your own mindset changes too.  I would have previously been quite happy and accept that we may not win every game, but if we generally won more than we lost, I could be quite comfortable with that.  I'm getting to the point at the moment, that I'm not sure how I handle a loss if that ever happens again.

    The thing I love most besides watching it. It adds to to our perceived invincibility. Other teams must be wondering how do you stop that machine.

    We are at a point where I am not in the least concerned about us drinking our own bath water.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.

      The Demons 2026 AFL Fixture is as good as can be expected considering their performances and finishes the past two seasons. Sunday games and late afternoon starts are on the menu with only 1 Friday night fixture until Round 15. They will travel 8 times including their home game in the Alice, their Gather Round game as well as a match against the Hawks in Tasmania. They will face, the Bombers, Bulldogs, the Suns, the Tigers, the Hawks and the Dockers twice.
