Well deserved milestones, we'll be right behind them.

Bit of a thirst quencher (to calm the nerves 😬) now before heading woolloongabba with my two lovely daughters 

first game we’ve been able to get to together since Anzac eve last year - let’s hope for a very similar result!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Just landed in Singapore. Can’t wait for us to demolish the Lions tonight. Go Demons!

Hate to tell you but I think you caught the wrong plane, we are playing at the GABBA tonight, never mind just have a beer and watch it from there.... 

I’m off to Bali in the morning.. hopefully with joy in my heart.

3 hours til game time and I haven’t cracked a beer yet. 

not shy to say I’m a little proud of myself

 

Heading to the Gabba. Hope the coaches have worked on getting a draw. If not Go Dees! JJ bit unlucky. Looks like this is the team structure going into finals. Their forward line a worry - Daniher, McStay and Hipwwod tall, Mcarthy, Andrews and Country Roads buzzing around. Hard to stop

Off topic question

My pm or message facility has disappeared.  Is this happening across Demonland?

Messaging working ok.

But noticed the 'Likes' count has disappeared from underneath the avatar when posting.  Anyone else in the same boat?

Good luck getting out of Denpasar Airport.  Allow up to 3 hours.

International Roast cannot be confused with coffee on several levels. It is steaming brown and tastes like steaming brown.

Edit. Or so I'm told.

Enjoy the footy tonight, go deees!

I always thought they scraped that stuff off the back of western Qld road trains.

I made my 22 year old son try one a little while back. #lifeexperience

At the powerhouse and headed to the pineapple 🍍👍

We know it’s very very tough tonight. They are a 6-7 goal better team at the Gabba. It’s going to be a finals atmosphere.  

Lions have won 9 from 10 home games in 2022 

Lions have won 35 out of last 37 home games in the regular session.  That’s a massive home ground advantage. 

Like in the final round of ‘21, down at Pussyland park, we showed we can win (albeit just) against the odds and beat feral home town favourites and the Umps.  
 

Go Dees. Unleash hell !!  

Brisbane have a good record at the Gabba. They've also only played 2 top 8 team at home this year, Collingwood and Carlton.

Oh Picket, if I wouldn’t go near BBO with a ten-foot pole while in Victoria, why on god’s green earth would it be any different interstate?! 


Now, I was pulled up by another poster for “never talking about football.” To avoid a repeat of this…

GO DEES!

GIVE ‘EM HELL!

❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙

I’ve just had a coffee (international Roast… yuck) and a 600ml Red Bull (NOT sugar-free!) at the same time. 🙃

International Roast? Could be worse ...

You've been to the Coconut Tree, too? Never forget her opening line whilst my mate and I were enjoying a cold beer: 'Mehorney Joy, lovie long time, no sheet....'

My theory? 

Day games are often much more hot and humid than opponent are used to - the lions train in such conditions so that probably gives them some advantage.

And night games are often slippery with the dew and humidity, and again opponent are not used to those sort of conditions. 

 

Opposition have either of interstate  travel on same day - or sleep in different  bed.

95% Lion supporters- umpire influence.

Look at Basketball court same dimension, but major home ground advantage.

Yes Bingers, it could be, and is, way worse…

I’m nervous. Spending weekend wine tasting in the Barossa, in our group a very loud and irritating lions supporter. 
please win Dees.


I'm as toey as all hell ... the match tonight is like a GF.  Win and we set ourselves up nicely.  And I don't want to entertain the thought of losing

Need alcohol before hitting the rubbity-dub!

I’m about to head over to the Pineapple as well! I’m staying down the road at Bates Motel. 😳 I wish I was kidding. This place is a little creepy now in daylight. I imagine it’ll be scary af in the dark tonight. Good times.

Now that's an idea! I have a full bottle of Finlandia - is it any good? Might be a pleasant change from the old Bundy and Coke. The nerves certainly think it is warranted. Advice, please....

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
