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.

Which town is that exactly?

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.

we will lose but not by 15 goals maybe 5

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.

I'm with you drake. Mr Judd likes to keep everyone happy.

My source is very very reliable.

Fire Up and Kick Back.

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

Thats the long way of saying who plays of McLean, Rivers and Robertson will be the difference.

You'd have Warnock, Ward and Godfrey in a winnable side over Moloney?????????????

Well, if the great Y_M thinks we'll lose, we're an absolute certainty to win.

NO Jaded, we'll win coz I have a very very reliable source that says we'll win.

Geez, I don't understand why people here aren't taking my very very reliable source seriously!

Nah bud, I'm Y_M's supplier.... which is the reason I'm concerned by his deluded outlook for this weekend's game.

The certainty of us winning couldn't be greater.

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
