It’s 6 degrees here, raining and cold af. And only 12 hours ‘til game time!

Good times 😳

 

It’s a good thing I packed nowhere near enough clothes; carry-on being only 7kg limit. Warm clothes are so overrated anyways, amirite?!

    good grief, even the temperature is considered woke these days.      Anyway, I thought it was plus 0.

    Extreme MFCSS here. My biggest worry is we are not really playing that well. We mess up the centre bounces too often with tiddleliwink hanball and I can see that Horne Francis having a field day.

    like every game, will be won and lost in the midfield and on turnover

    if we control the ball in post-clearance as we have when we've been at our best, we'll limit their opportunities to utilise their small forward line approach and hit the scoreboard

    it should be a cracking game between two top four sides

    They’re good, but this is an opportunity.

    If our midfield break even or win, with those outs in their forward line we should win.

    I think there’s actually 5 legitimate top four sides this year. As ridiculous as that sounds lol.  lions, cats, pies, dees and power. So this is one of those 8 point games we def don’t want to drop. Big game!

    Not confident about us stopping there scoring, think this will become a shootout which means the game becomes a coin flip

    I do not want a cracking game, I want us to put 7 through them in the opening quarter and open up a commanding lead. Do not enjoy close games on the TV. Hope T Mac plays a blinder.

    Well done WCW and the Demon Army, that's an exceptional display of empathy transcending football.

    Huh?

    Apologies about the vagueness...

    I was alluding to the constant feeling as a Demons supporter of not being 'confident' ,that never actually leaves us.  It just has at times, a different intensity, frequency and duration of symptoms, the etiology of course, being we were a very average team for many many years, and it doesn't matter about our modern success, it's still there.

    Go Dees

    what's everyone's thoughts on our current Game plan of conceding clearances to win the ball back in these conditions?

    I don't think they go in thinking they are conceding the clearances. With one less in there, do you mean, there is a good chance of not getting it out? We have some good players in close, and our spread from stoppage with outside runners is an improvement from a few years ago. I reckon our problem with the out-number, is it makes it easier for the opponents to tackle, get a spill then win the ball. We are good at getting first use, and I trust our structures to get the ball out when the game is on the line.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
