What did Richo say? I have no sound 

Something happened with Petty…

Sounds like (likely) Zorko made overly personal comments about someone  from Petty's family.

Great win, but FFS Jaded and the others having a whinge about Brissy getting the last two goals have a good look at yourselves absolutely pathetic 

Wait until you see what Sydney come up with.

Is there a table somewhere that shows the scores we need in the St Kilda and Sydney game to hold on to second spot?

I doubt very much as a club we would be happy with conceding some soft goals in the last. 
I would hate to play Sydney at the SCG and so would the club. 

Leave it out. Just destroyed a fellow contender in their home deck. Smiles all round

OK it's 35 points but increase by about two points for every goal the Saints kick. ie if the Saints kick ten goals the difference becomes about 50 to 55 points.

Are you serious?

(PS not sure about the premise of your argument anyway. We're 7-0 on the road, whilst 5 of our 6 losses this year have been at the G, including to Sydney).

Finals is a different ball game. Not to mention we want the home ground and home crowd advantage. After missing out last year I think we want our fans at the G cheering the boys on.

Players beating the chest together in the room after the game. Jonesy was talking about that on the radio today, he said it was a team thing that the focus was in 2021 keeping the opposition below 68 points

HA HA HA

If they make a movie of this game it will be called "BACKFIRE".

They come out with their hard man act, against guys like Viney, May, Harmes ... none of our guys will shirk a push and shove and even big lumbering old Benny Brown doesn't take a backward step. Even the boy who's still in high school (probably) won't back down from a skirmish.

What did they think was going to happen???

It was good to see in the first two minutes our pressure was on.

And what was this new thing ... low hard forward entries in space to leading forwards? Since when has that been part of football? I congratulate whoever invented that. We should keep doing it.

Hitting our straps at exactly the right time of year.

GO DEMONS!!!

What is with Jonathan Brown and his narrative of us going after Zorko all night?

Bloke is deluded, Zorko was a [censored] from the first contest

Why it has nothing to do with it, we achieved a win, players reaction with the chest beating means we clearly achieved our target of keeping them below a certain score.

you ever had anything to do with footy at a decent level and when you’re way ahead you start managing your players

Big win

no injuries

top 4

Good night but others always need to whinge

Rivers finally fit and confident in his knee is massive

His sidestep and agility is huge at half back

Our last four matches have been against top 8 sides, three of whom have been playing for top 4. How much more different are finals going to be?

Tonight we were underdogs and you yourself acknowledged pre-match it was supposed to be a tight one.

Reacting like this after we've belted our literal contender for 2nd spot is silly.

If we'd just played North, sure, be upset with junk time goals.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
