Well here we are

0-7

Nasty indeed

There coud not be a worse time to face the best team in the comp on their home turf. But atleast the spirit is there. We are having a dip. Players are starting to return from injury. Davey is in fine form. Sylvia is arriving. Dunn is showing what he is capable of.

But boy are the Eagles good

Judd. Kerr. Cox. Hunter. Wirrpunda. Glass. So many great players. So well coached.

The feeling around town is that the winless Demons could pull off a big upset over in the West.

But lets be realistic.

West Coast are West Coast. Melbourne are Melbourne.

This game is going to get ugly. The Demons will be within 5 goals at 3 quarter time, before the likes of Judd and Kerr run riot.

West Coast will pile on 11 goals to 1 in the final stanza. And will waltz home by a lazy 92 points.

    I actually thought Melbourne would go alright this week, but you make so many valid points. You've convinced me. I think you might be on the money this week Y_M.

    Although West Coast don't tend to smash teams too often by massive margins.

    What an absolute crock Y_M.

    I have it on good authority that on Robbo's return this week, he is pencilled in to kick 12.

    I have a very reliable source telling me that Judd has gathered the Eagles' leadership group and put a very emotional plea to let his future club win their first game for the season.

    Kerr has decided to pull out with some 'soreness' and Judd will 'limp' off after the first bounce, not to return for the rest of the day.

    As far as I understand it, Cox was thrilled to see PJ's 'coming of age' game last week, and he promised Judd to 'coach' PJ throughout the 4 quarters. I've been told that PJ will take 16 contested marks and kick 4 goals for best on field performance.

    Bate is set to star with 43 possessions and our goal to goal line delivery will be the quickest recorded in AFL history.

    Apparently an Eagles club email has gone out to all members asking that they don't show up, to give the Demons a 'home game advantage'.

    The entire Eagles club is behind Judd's plea to give the Demons every advantage possible on the day, to win their first game of the year.

    Everyone here at Demonland should relax and feel confident for the weekend.

    It's a guaranteed win.

    I love it! :lol:

    I'll be putting a few gold coins on the Demons to shake up the Eagles and come back a brand new side, with 4 points and challenge the rest of the comp!

    Word around town is that a B-double of 35,000 Melbourne jumpers personally signed by Paul Johnson left the MCG this morning after massive orders in the west. It'll be a sea of red and blue on Sunday.

    I hear Judd wants to thump us by 150 points so we can offer the eagles a good draft pick for his trade to the Dees.

    well you heard wrong. :angry:

    My source is very very reliable.

    Fire Up and Kick Back.

    If Judd has his way, the Demons will win and win comfortably.

    Moloney is the better player without a doubt. If McLean was to play I think Moloney will miss. He is not right.

    If McLean doesn't get up, Moloney will be selected.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
