I would really like it to NOT be close. A win with minimal effort would be much better. 

Agreed, it was 13 goals to 2 at half time 3 weeks ago, a similar score is desirable.

Daniher out means they will play fast corridor football instead of their slow high marking game.

What game style do we fail against most often?

They have to win the ball first and they’re not as skilled as other sides that have beaten us that way.

Dud Sportsbet have the Dee's as unbackable favourites for the first 10 rounds this year?

Like pretty much every expert commentator?

Geez Louise what has that got to do with.....anything ?

That's right! Or at least half of that will be acceptable!

I'm surprised and shocked on two counts.

1. Someone found Daniher attractive enough to do the deed

2. Daniher was accurate enough to "kick a goal."

Never a problem for AFL players no matter their looks. 
But yeah, can’t dispute your 2nd point 😂

Hearing that we also might have a late out for Smith or Bedford either of which will play or supersub

Might want to send this through to the coaches at MFC, doubt they will catch on

Last week i was anxious as all heck, today i am very much "what will be will be". Would be a waste of a season to go out in straight sets, particularly starting 10-0.

It's all up to the boys now. I'll be there cheering them on tonight, and hopefully get to next week as well. 🤞

Agree. But that’s how the Dees mess with your head. Flat this week. Smash the Lions

have a week of getting your hopes up then Hawkins kicks 6 and we are crushed!

good times!

No matter what anyone says, there is huge pressure on us tonight. 

We haven't had enough go wrong out of our control to mean that a straight sets exit after starting 10-0 and finishing 2nd is acceptable. It isn't.

I put very little weight in the margin of the two H&A games. Finals are different. We won't blow Brisbane apart (if we do, that says way more about them than us). We are better than them, we should find it easier to score against them than Sydney given their leaky defence, and we should have a point to prove and a burning desire to right the ship.

I don't mind if it's a slog, or if it's close, or if we're behind at points. I just want a win. I want a shot at Geelong in a prelim, where for the first time in a long time we'll be significant underdogs.

Things were certainly different last week. We just need to get the job done tonight, that is all. Not particularly fussed about the perfect performance. Win and go again.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
