GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs Walyalup



Recommended Posts

Narrm return to the MCG to take on Walyalup who in the corresponding match last season broke the Demon's 17 game winning streak which was their first of three losses in a row. The Dees will need to win to stay in the Top 4.GameDayRd112023.png

Alot on the line in this game.

Win this and I will be reasonably happy for a while.

While a loss will make me disproportionately upset for longer.

I love the Narrm concept and that we led the league with this… but we have a [censored] record with that as our name. Have Narrm won a game yet? MFCSS rising … this is big game.

We’ve responded well after each loss this season. Keen to see the midfield dynamic without Oliver over the next couple of weeks.

A great start time for a game, weather should be fine and hoping a lot of us turn up to support the boys.

With Collingwood and Geelong around the corner, this is an absolute non negotiable must win game of footy.

I'm more confident against Geelong than Freo tbh.

I have a feeling that Viney will have a huge, match winning game today. Without Oliver it just seems set up for the unleashing of our ballistic missile!!

Not near as confident about this one as I was 3 weeks ago. Freo haven’t beaten anyone of note (Geelong had no midfield) but they’re confidence is up, and they are playing better. They’re moving the ball quicker and their forwards have found some form.

Clarry a massive out but Walters is an important player for them as well.

The forecast is a clear, sunny 15 degrees. Perfect for footy. It’s been a while since we had a Saturday afternoon game at the G so I’m really looking forward to this one.

We won’t have it all our own way, but I reckon Fritta will do the business for us.

Dees by 20 points

Will be interested to see how Langdon goes today without Hunter. 

He might go better without him and thrive on the responsibility.

He’s been less influential since Hunter’s joined us. His possessions have gone down from 22 to 19 a game and he’s on track for just a 4 goal season, down from 13 in both 2021 and 2022.

The last 3 weeks he’s average just 16 touches and laid only 1 tackle.

Circumstances force me to take a circuitous route to the G today and, consequently, I shall be leaving one of The Manor's fleet at Wallan Railway Station. No doubt it will be stolen and I shall have to seek an alternative means of transportation in the pm.

However, my mood will not be dampened as I will have witnessed a comprehensive Dees victory.

Even with Clarrie MIA, I have no concerns about our ability to cover Freo in all respects. 

We have flag aspirations. We must finish top 4 or , better still, top 2.

The second half of the season is near and dropping games to sides below you on the ladder simply cannot be allowed.

I doubt other clubs care less about our name change. Collingwood will likely hit us on KB . They usually do .

Naarm wont change anything.

 

 

Haven't checked the stats yet, but I'd wager we have a better KB  record than QB.

We've got today. I keep backing Kozzie for a big day out. It's going to be today. Us by 41.

… and a bright and happy good morning you too, you big ol’ golden ray of sunshine, you!!! 😘

We’ll have a a comfortable win today and Demonland won’t go into Chernobyl-level melts. But should we in fact lose, I’ll see y’all around about the middle of next week when everyone’s had a chance to calm the [censored] down. But not on Thursday since the aftershocks will be felt again once selection is announced. 😁

GO THE MIGHTY DEES!!!

Exactly. Some DL posters think a loss to Freo ends our season, but fail to take into account that WE ARE CAPABLE OF UPSET WINS AWAY or as UNDERDOGS too.

Wonder whether he’ll stay on the one side of the ground all day like he was doing until this year?

He had a great game against Freo in Rd 1 2021 at the G. Kicked a lovely banana goal iirc. Hoping he can get back to that kind of form because he's been well down this year.

Should win today.

I would like to see McDonald really have a presence today. I just remember Brown and Weideman were non existent last time we played them at the G. I'm going to back him in for a big one today.

Petracca and Viney to really stand up and show that no Oliver, no worries.

Max had an absolute stinker. Rarely does this two weeks in a row.

Kozzie to get back into form starting today.

Won't be watching the footy as I'll be kicking the dew off at 2pm so hoping for some good news once I open my phone again at 4:45pm.

    POINT WELL MADE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons had a number of points to make to themselves, their opponents and the VFL football world when they traveled up to the Gold Coast to take on the Southport Sharks in the 2022 Grand Final rematch at Fankhauser Reserve.  After living off the glory of an almost perfect premiership, the Demons stumbled after winning the opening four games of the season and have struggled in their recent northern state sojourns - their only loss in 2022 came at the hands of the Lions in Brisbane a

    BLUES FREE FOOTY by George on the Outer

    Long time supporters would be all too familiar with the call “free kick, Hawthorn”, as umpires seemed to gift certain teams an inordinate amount of free kicks in the game. Similarly, in the Melbourne v Carlton game a 22 to 13 free kick count, was grossly out of place given the dominance of Melbourne in just about every other statistic for the game.   However, for the Blues with only 4½ wins from their 12 games, their season is rapidly heading the same way as Hawthorn, despite all the help t

    GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Carlton

    The Blues season is on the line and their captain and coach have been in the firing line all week. If the Dees cough this one up the media's crosshairs will do a 180 and will surely be directed at the Demons who have only won 13 games from their last 25 outings. This is a must win game for the Melbourne Football Club too.

    We’ve seen it all before.   Club in turmoil. Coach under pressure. Club President caught up in a tax scandal. Club board not seeing eye to eye with one board member resigning amid questions about whether he was pushed or did he jump? Unrest bordering on hysteria among the supporters. Team dropping from undefeated after four rounds to 13th after ten. Allegations of favoured treatment of players.

    WRITING ON THE WALL by Whispering Jack

    The Narrm Football Club found a second way in the space of 12 months less a day to unexpectedly lose a home game against Walyalup on Saturday afternoon. The equivalent match of last year has been described as Melbourne’s “ground zero” of 2022 where things went wrong for the club after a long run of wins that included its 57 year drought-breaking premiership triumph. Unfortunately for the Demons, the 2023 version was a case of deja vu with the Dockers overcoming a half time deficit and runn
