NON-MFC: Rd 06 2023


Demonland

Recommended Posts

in a very long season it's still time to think about the final 4

A game in Perth is off the radar but SA Qld and Sydney are possibles

On that basis Cats over Swans and the miracle of Eagles and Hawks over the two Adelaide teams

Giants over Lions

Freo over dogs for the obvious reasons

The rest ????

There will be shocks and upsets this weekend. If there wasn't we'd all load up on the punt and get 8/9 winners every week.

Wouldn't be shocked if Hawthorn knock off Adelaide. Hawks play their best footy in Launceston and Adelaide have been home for 4 games in a row so will need to adjust to foreign territory.

Giants could also knock off Brisbane in Canberra if all goes right for them.

North could lift for Goldy??

Not a chance West Coast could upset Port though with their glorified WAFL side.

Tonights a tough game, who do you want to see lose more. Guess draft picks beats more dog pain. Swan beating the Cats and Saints beating the Blues would be nice. 

I can’t conceive of any reason why I’d prefer freo to win a game this year other than if it ensures we get a better finals position.

The only time I barracked for the eagles in my life was round 3 this year. And I really dislike the eagles.

I’d be very surprised if the hawks beat Adelaide. Crows will win by 40+ I reckon. And they will play finals this year.

Still don’t think Freo is playing as well as they could.  Even last week they only just got over the Suns.

The only wildcard is it’s in Perth, but the doggies have played there a lot so they know the ground and the weather will suit them. They have a better defense v fwd over the Freo matchups.

Fingers cross the doggies can get a good game going.

Rory Lobb obviously not forgotten

It was like the cops and the army buzzing around trying to bring down King Kong.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.
