NON-MFC: Rd 06 2023


Demonland

Recommended Posts

Saints have a very good defence in Wilkie, Dougall and Battle (albeit Curnow’s getting the better of the latter)

As Sydney showed last night, and when we’re missing Lever or May, it’s so important to have your three key pillars down back.

I dont care if this is sexist but why do women take so long to choose items in shops. Im in the menswear section and its banb bang bang....all items picked and paid for.

 

Meanwhile 50 mins later my wife has tried who knows how many items while I have to suffer sitting on a very small shoe seat listening to Kenny g playing through the extra large store speakers.

Finally she's ready to go and Yes she doesn't even buy anything.

No wonder men die before there spouse. 

They want to.

Because women are socialised differently. They usually get judged on outward presentation, whereas if you dress like a slob, not much happens.

Men have 4 choices to make in a clothes store. Women have hundreds of choices.

St Kilda will play finals and give top 4 a nudge. They are very fit and well drilled.

I’d go as far to say they’re a premiership contender.

I see a fair bit of Melbourne 2021 about them. Fit, disciplined, motivated, able to carry out the game plan for 4 quarters and extremely hard to score against with their defensive mindset.

Could be their year in their 150th, albeit I expect to see Geelong and Collingwood in the GF.

Yes, those were the great days for our defence. Saint Kilda are doing what we did for all of 2021 and half of 2022 – absolutely strangling the opposition until they just bomb it long in despair. I don’t know why it’s not working for us now.

And not to forget, this is their 57th year since they won their last premiership

It's April, lets see them keep this up all season.

I think 6 games is a large enough sample to make a reasonable call. Their defensive structure and game plan holds up. Their fixture is kind playing Lions, Suns, Hawks, North, Tiges and Carlton twice. I'm pretty confident they'll play finals.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    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
