Pretty sad that they need to post this. But at least they have a banner for their girls, many of the clubs don’t. 😔 

The culture that our women’s team have going is made up of many components. One part of that is the passion the Demon Army have for this team. If your team has a banner and the other doesn’t, you are already ahead of the opposition before the game even starts. 
Good on you WCW and your Demon Army companions

Nice to have a gameday to look forward to after all the off-field nonsense we've been dealing with lately.

Reckon our superior fire power will get us across the line but it will be a tough contest. 

Dees by 10 points

In the other big game hoping the Lions can do us a favour against the crows.

Are we a very good team, or a very, very good team?  We will find out this evening.

I think we are the latter!  Dees by 10 points.

Thanks, FND. We do what we do purely out of love for our team. But it’s always nice to know we’re appreciated. I know some might think it’s just a banner, no biggie. But the girls tell us all the time how much it means to them. Katie and Tyla mentioned it yet again at the AFLW function on Thursday in their speeches. They also love the guard of honour every week. We sometimes have such a long G.O.H. it’s quite the spectacle. There’s no limit to the number of people allowed on the ground at suburban venues and boy, do we go all out. 😁

We actually feel bad for oppo cheer squads who can’t muster enough people to make and/or get a banner up. North are genuine contenders yet they have to ask for helpers. If I wasn’t on our banner crew I’d help them tonight. Even in the men’s at our match vs North in Hobart they asked for our assistance. We ended up taking over 🤭 such is our enthusiasm and the camaraderie of cheer squads.

Anyways, tonight’s match is a true test for us. I’m confident we’ll win.

The mighty Dees by 16 points. Zanks to kick a hatful (as my mate @layzie would say 😁).

Not gloating (except so gloating it’s nuts) but I’ll be on my usual cheer squad duties tonight, that is, after I’m done hobnobbing in the Pavilion Function Room at Ikon thanks to @Katrina Dee Fan who kindly offered me a ticket in her place as she can’t attend tonight (enjoy Paul McCartney, Kat!). I’ll deign to chat to any Demonlanders who might be at the match, so long as my posh (new) friends don’t see me doing so. 😁

LOL the folks at the function won’t know what hit ‘em. 😂

Jeez. Watched some of the Western Bulldogs game. they have fallen hard. No wins from 7. Belted by an expansion team and conceding 96 points in the process. I have a soft spot for them given they flew the flag for women's footy with the Dees for a long time but those in charge of the women's program at Whitten Oval have run it into the ground. Big changes needed.

Lions playing very well but poor goal kicking letting them down. Hopefully won't come back to bite them in the second half.

They're within 5 points and have the breeze in the last quarter. still all to play for.

So do we need adelaide to win to get closer to the mill or bris to win so get closer to top?

 

 assuming we win

Great question. For mine the McClelland is of the utmost importance at this stage. If we’re not minor premiers, while interstate finals suck, it doesn’t mean too much. The million dollars on the other hand…

 

edit: scratch that. Go Lions!!!

 

edit (again): I’ve decided I want the McClelland AND a premiership. Is that too much to ask?

Brisbane should be gifted a couple of goals just as compensation for having to wear those hideous jumpers.

Lions do us a favour (although did their best to throw that game away).

Now we need to take care of our own business later this evening.

I just saw the result of the Lions game!! That makes tonight's game massive. A chance to go top of the ladder in a comp where the top team gets home advantage for the grand final is HUGE

Gee, that Bris vs Adel game was a ripper. The top AFLW teams are great to watch, especially us!

The standard just gets better and better. Amazing what opportunity produces in society, eh?

Uh oh. Top of the ladder available for the winner. MFCSS kicking in.

This is the only circumstance the Demons' Women's team ever loses!

And yet, I am still confident.

What an incredible welcome to country that was.

I've only had a little bit of time with elders, that fella covered so much from what I've learnt from them.

Mentioning children born on their land are considered part of their country and from their country is beautiful.

Loved it.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
