Time for the Weed to get high off his own supply!

If he gets high off his own supply i'll be following suit...

This the 3rd game in a row, where we are coming back from interstate or playing interstate, against a team either playing at home or with a longer break, or both.

Great job on the fixed ture AFL.

I was always sceptical of the multiverse theory Kev... until now!

At training today, ANB and Viney, had semi competitive drills with each other to end the session, about 10 minutes. 

They were very close to goal and after slapping, holding each other and turning the ball boundary side they would perform a little snap for goal.

They had a bit of intention about it.

We get another one of those next week. Dockers with the extra day break and we will be travelling.

We saved our absolute best for September last year. Why can't we do that again this year? 

Perhaps this discussion warrants its own thread. Lots of variables, but too many of them trending downwards or not improving for mine.

Im not doubting your reasoning or seeing such things Kev... all im saying is if this happens tomorrow night then i will have turned and will forever be a believer in the multiverse afterwards!

Looking frwd to this one.

Some tough outs still  but hey Mr Footy.... Oliver's is back.

Suck it up dogs.

 

 

The Bulldogs massive weakness is structurally in defence - so of course our 2 best tall forwards are out.

Honestly our draw this year has been so hard. It doesn’t get taken into consideration enough. We are up against it every week. I’m really proud of what we’ve achieved to date.

I agree... another reason to have kept Tomo in and pushed Petty forward

They could be thinking, they've got to get goals from somewhere. 

Could also be to set the throw ins from near the goal and not sharking at Weids feet.

Got a feeling Weid is going to have an Elimination final 2018 type of game tomorrow night.  Based on absolutely nothing.

BB has been proppy since he limped off at half time in the Adelaide game. We've done well to manage him through the last few games. I don't know if I'm more worried about him missing or that Weid is taking his place. 

Both 

The odds are against us tomorrow evening. If we win it will be huge .... a sign that the Demon spirit is emerging in time for September.

That is a magnificent contribution to the thread.

Weed is playing for Melbourne tomorrow night and he deserves the support of all true fans.

Reckon we've already lost this at the selection table but hopefully wrong (again)

Geez I hope so. I really truly do. I want the Weed to come out and smash packs, take mark of the year and slot six like Koz did last week.

It's in there somewhere and today is the day.....but I'll settle for a decent amount of good solid grabs and a few goals. Just something to spark him up to be the player we all want!

Yes and he will have my full support since he's playing, doesn't mean I have to agree with his selection . If he has a good game I'll be the first on here to acknowledge it.

Alice is a home game we choose to play away from the G. Two six day breaks coming into next week away against the Dockers isn't ideal. They travelled this week and would be flying back today so not a massive advantage to them. We have a day longer break against the pies and 2 day longer break than the Blues the following week. Swings and round abouts

Lol at people complaining about the draw. 

We choose to play at Alice. 

And we won the flag so naturally the draw will be more difficult.

  • PREVIEW: Brisbane

    And just like that, we’re Narrm again. Even though the annual AFL Sir Doug Nicholls Round which commemorates the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture to our game has been a welcome addition to our calendar for ten years, more lately it has been a portent of tough times ahead for we beleaguered Narrm supporters. Ever since the club broke through for its historic 2021 premiership, this has become a troubling time of the year for the club. For example, it all began when Melbourne rebranded itself as Narrm across the two rounds of the Sir Doug Nicholls Round to become the first club to adopt an Indigenous club name especially for the occasion. It won its first outing under the brand against lowly North Melbourne to go to 10 wins and no losses but not without a struggle or a major injury to  star winger Ed Langdon who broke his ribs and missed several weeks. In the following week, still as Narrm, the team’s 17 game winning streak came to an end at the hands of the Dockers. That came along with more injuries, a plague that remained with them for the remainder of the season until, beset by injuries, the Dees were eliminated from the finals in straight sets. It was even worse last year, when Narrm inexplicably lowered its colours in Perth to the Waalit Marawar Eagles. Oh, the shame of it all! At least this year, if there is a corner to turn around, it has to be in the direction of something better. To that end, I produced a special pre-game chant in the local Narrm language - “nam mi:wi winnamun katjil prolin ambi ngamar thamelin amb” which roughly translated is “every heart beats true for the red and the blue.” >y belief is that if all of the Narrm faithful recite it long enough, then it might prove to be the only way to beat the Brisbane Lions at the Gabba on Sunday. The Lions are coming off a disappointing draw at Marvel Stadium against a North Melbourne team that lacks the ability and know how to win games (except when playing Melbourne). Brisbane are, however, a different kettle of fish at home and have very few positional weaknesses. They are a midfield powerhouse, strong in defence and have plenty of forward options, particularly their small and medium sized players, to kick a winning score this week after the sting of last week’s below par performance.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
