No Tommy Alvin warming up in the rooms prior to the ‘94 Qualifying Final.

 

On watch tonight - Sparrow, ANB, Melksham & Spargo.  You have to deliver. Passengers last week and we need goals.  All these blokes should be able to contribute at least 5-6 goal’s amongst themselves.

    I'm hoping that cripps playing provides us with extra resolve to bring our A game.

    Last week felt like a final and they're all essentially finals from here on with top 4 on the line.  Time to get on a roll.

    Weather update from those close to the G?

    Also any word on Kozzie being a late out for knee issue?

    I call it the “I don’t care about living to a ripe old age” ensemble. The banana is included since I do care about living ‘til the end of the match. 😁

    JK. I actually share these around with my comrades. Especially for a double-header like today. I’m a (sugar) loading believer. So if you notice a spike in our energy levels around the beginning of the second quarter tonight you’ll know why. 
    You’re welcome!

    PS: hey @The heart beats true! We could fill our squadders with nothing but pure sugar for a week and have em all hooked up to a liquid sugar drip and they’d still be s**t-house, amirite?! Someone should start a thread about it!

    Fell for it again - that's the second time this week. The ol' banana in the candy store trick. 

    Realistically if we can't win tonight I wouldn't be expecting another flag. Not this season anyway.

    Need plenty of sugar for all that yelling WCW ?

     

    Ad for the game on 7 was 28 seconds Carlton, 2 seconds Maxy. Narrative being set early.

    Yeah tried that, I guess being a scratchy they have paid for film crews.  

    I know I am the eternal pessimist, but it feels like our season has been in slow freefall since round 10.

    Would be nice to string 5 wins together to finish it off.

    Can see it now 

    we lead by 22 at half time 

    Cripps to have 35 and 3 goals 

    we have 20 more inside 50s

    lose free kick count by 20 

    carlton win by 9 

    could I put this in a bet?

    I think I've made a grave mistake and hope that I haven't put the moz on our beloved Demons. Unbelievably, I've already turned my attention to next week's game with Fitzroy under the belief that we have this all wrapped up. Hopefully there are enough Demonlanders out there with the contrary view to effectively cancel out my utopian outlook 😁

    Ok so what is the name of your app. That I need to search.  Ta.   I like weather apps that work 

    ‘Windy’. You can download a free version which is more than adequate.  I honestly forget what features are enhanced / unlocked when you pay for a subscription.


    Fingers crossed it is accurate tonight! One forecast mode says a bit of weather (0.2ml 5pm ish and the other says it will occur 7pm. Either way should be fairly dry for most of the evening (showers at the moment slightly north of us moving slowly west!)🤞

    Have I told you about the Demonland optimist vs the pessimist?


    The pessimist says, " Things could not get worse."

    The optimist says, " Oh yes they can."

    Sounds like Demonland alright.

    Watching the second half of the womens game. Domination from us. Not much intensity though. No Harris or Daisy or Goldy

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
