Paddy Dow is expected to get a chance to prove himself on the big stage tonight when Carlton face Melbourne at the MCG. Going to be Sub or so the report goes.

He’s a bust, take that to the bank

    Uncharacteristically aggressive for us.

    He's definitely a bust as a top 3 pick, but if you can pick him up as a delisted free agent or for a late pick it would be a smart option for depth. Dunstan will probably be delisted after this season.

    I should be confident about tonight but I haven't seen much in the last month of footy to tell me that we are genuine this season. Hopefully it starts with them tonight.

    Really hoping Smith can show something. His time is now, he either brings it this season or he's done.

    Also looking for big games for Kozzie, Fritta, ANB, Spargo, and Chandler. Our small/mid forwards haven't been performing of late, we need our tackling pressure game to come back in a big way, especially leading into next week.

    about to grab a pre game bite and a beverage.  Then onto public transport for the ride in.  Go dees!  Lets Make some noise!!!!

    If we lose this, there’s going to be a MASSIVE spotlight on us.  After 2021, Demons dynasty was being proclaimed.  Now we’d be lucky to make the 8 if we lose tonight.  Form is a volatile mistress !!! 

    If we lose, we are staring down five losses in a row! Pies and Cats (in Geelong) to come!

    Some serious questions would need to be asked of the players and coach if we fall to 7-7 with a low to moderate injury list.

    You should be in prime form by the first bounce.

    A loss to Voss would be the worst part.

    Whos spot does he take??

    Underperforming players, Chandler, Spargo, McVee, even Langdon. Shake them up, best 23 isn't set yet, put a fire under them, perform, execute, or back to the 2nds for a week. Get JJ to take'em on, and see if he can do the spectacular instead of the team first. 

    This little meeting out in the middle has been going for over half an hour. They seem really serious, no laughing or joviality whatsoever.

    Maybe they heard about your egg.

    We are fine, clear night, spent the week in Melbourne, on prime time MCG.

    They want to turn the season back our way.

    Fight Dees, help each other, 1 percenters, swarm, play smart, get some tempo, hold our marks, convert our opportunities, and don't turnover in a handball panic.

    Go Dees

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • 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?

      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.
