NON-MFC: Rd 09 2023


Demonland

Recommended Posts

I think the best thing about monitoring Fremantle's ladder position is the contrast it provides with the feeling that our own destiny is in our own hands. Thinking about the Demons, I think only of our game and maybe take a glance at how the top-4 is progressing. Thinking about Fremantle requires tipping half the round!

Gold Coast over West Coast (Death ride +1)

Richmond to upset Geelong (Death ride +2)

Sydney to splatter Fremantle (Death ride +3)

Port over North (dreams have limits)

Melbourne over Hawthorn (by >20 goals)

Brisbane over Essendon (meh)

Carlton over the Bulldogs (but really, coin toss here)

Adelaide over St Kilda (high drama!)

Collingwood over West Sydney (Death ride -1)

Other than the Carlton Dogs game, Saturday is going to be a day of one sided thrashings IMO.

And yes I am backing Sydney to smash Freo. Season on the line for both, but Freo have Swans, Cats and then Us. They are done already.

Would love to see the Cats beaten tonight. It's unlikely though.

Dogs will easily account for Carlton i reckon. doggies form much better the last few weeks.

No chance GWS beat the pies.

the Cats have named their worst midfield for 20 years. 

aside from Duncan who’s going to win the ball?

Taranto will go nuts. if Tigers can kick a decent score they can win this

Cats are 2-2 at the G. 

Am i convincing anyone?!?

Tigers dropped Cumberland who’s actually been kicking a few. The last 2 weeks they’ve been woeful. Last week early in the 3/4 the Eagles were up by 3.  Yes Geelong’s mids look weakened but surely too much up fwd and down back.

Tigers best is very good. They’ve just only brought it for a half against Carlton, against us and now for one quarter against Geelong so far this season. If they keep this going Geelong will be in for a big fight.

    POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    After a very wasteful first half of footy the Demons ended up cruising to a clinical victory over the Saints by 38 points at the MCG and ultimately reclaimed a coveted spot in the Top 4.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    PREGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    The Demons return to the MCG to take on the Saints in Round 11 on the back of two straight losses in a row. With Jake Lever out with concussion who comes in and who goes out?
