Do or Die Today!

The boys have gotten up and performed every time this year when we were questioned and the pressure was on. We smashed Brisbane coming off a 3 game losing streak, smashed Freo in Perth when we needed to after 3 mediocre games, got over the line against Carlton to keep our top 4 dream alive and lastly beat Brisbane in Brisbane to secure top 4.

Yes we didn't beat Sydney for an easy Prelim spot but today is different, we lose and it's over, so we need to win and I think the boys will get it done. After that, Geelong won't seem like such a massive challenge and we can beat them. Before you know it we're in another GF.

Let's go dees!

    I hope your right.

    Last week the Buddy free and 100m penalty and then Reid 50m in the 3rd both gave Sydney goals when we were on top and changed the game. However it did feel like Swans really owned the 2nd half of the game.

    while May & Clarrie were great Fritsch ok and the player on Henry did a solid job, the rest of the team were below average or poor, so getting back to at least average across the board, with a few players going well and that should be enough against the Lions!

    It doesn’t feel real that our season could be over in less than 24 hours, there is so much unfinished business.

    All of the player interviews this week don’t feel like it’s a possibility either. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or not…

    We'll win. The Lions are total bottle jobs and will fold again tonight

    Performance wise we need to lift. Get some sharpness and rhythm back into our game. No more fumbling

    Forward pressure please. If i see the ball rebounding out of our forward 50 i'll lose my [censored]

    ANB to find some kind of form. HE has not been good recently. Salem likewise. We need his accurate disposal off half back if we're to win a prelim or granny

    I hope Trac's guardian angel let's nothing further happen to his injured leg

    Need some real momentum before we take on the cats. That'll be a tough ask playing as we are 

    Come on Dees. Produce your best in a final before the faithful. Remind the Cats and Swans what we're capable of

    See you all at the G later

    Not sure tonight is the right time to give back the cup.

    Give 'em he'll.

    I have a sense this game will go to the wire. 

    Only if our defence has a shocker like against the Bulldogs. It shouldn’t be close at all. If we played the way we did last week without improvement we still win tonight comfortably.

    The Lions will be fired up for this one, after the embarrassment of the past few years. And they will come out hard but I expect them to play the ball more than the man this time 

    Demons by 9 points in a cracker

    Lovely 20oC day predicted. Hardly any rain in Victoria at the moment. Maybe a bit of drizzle tonight but who gives AF!?

    Age this morning has Dees winning by tipsters 14 to nil.

    Max is the back page article. Its all about us.

    Brenton Sanderson on Whateley yesterday said Dees win by 30 plus and a potential blowout, and Goody needs to be thinking who he rests for final quarter.

    David King "...can't make any case for a Lions win tomorrow..."

    I refuse to believe Oliver , Viney, May....... will leave anything on the field.

    That's what I'm going with until proven wrong.

    I hope to see a lot more of the swashbuckling, fun-loving Demons that we saw last year.

    Couple of Geelong supporting friends absolutely [censored] themselves at the thought of playing us in the Prelim. HQ would love last year's game happening again. They would prefer a different result though.

    Pretty confident about tonight. 30 points or so.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
