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

      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?

      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.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
