Go and Get JUH


Bigfoot

Recommended Posts

Bont will never leave, doing so would throw that club into utter turmoil and irrelevance. I also think it would be a burden/luggage for Bont to the extent it will affect his footy. As much as every other club would want him, i hope he sorts out whatever riff raff he has going on and stays to be a 1 club player. He is one of the greats of the modern era.

I think the forwardline configuration last night might have raised a few eyebrows at the kennell. Naughton looked so much better without the congestion. Lobb played his role much more effectively too. Either JUH has to come up much more forward and give Naughton space or they move Naughton into the back line. Playing them like they do is not working. Realistically, its hard to see a situation where they trade him...

Bont's book has a boy with Demon colours. Omen? A certainty to be at the Dees 🤪

This book is great! Got it for my nephew last year and he loves it 😀

Last night    JUH  did not play, is that correct,  Hard to see their forwards playing much better,  maybe he will become surplace ?

Yes. Fatigue, loading and 5 or 6 day breaks mean a hell of a lot to the whole 22. 
some might be super fit but the average AFL player feels the difference.

Yeah, I like MFC.

That's it.

 I think many of us 'just cannot watch' / 'find no interest, whatsoever' in observing football games in which the Mighty Demons are not playing. To keep abreast of how (well) up-coming opposition sides are playing, we refer to the [censored] media for an ounce of insight, no more. One-eyed it may be, it is a commitment just the same.

Surely they’d sack everyone from the president to the boot-studder before losing Bont..?

I think they'd rather make the Bont captain/coach and president than trade him

Possibly even rename the club Western Bont too!

Interesting development on JUH. Just find it interesting that this happens to coincide with Doggies big win and Naughton kicking 6 snags. Probably nothing but ... the old adage of smoke and fire.

JUH not being at Monday training after being at the boxing on Saturday is curious.

Could not help but notice the following in the next SEN article:

Former Docker, Sun and Demon Harley Bennell kicked 6 goals to help guide the Lions to a 9-point win over Dederang Mount Beauty FNC 15.8 98 to 12.17 89.

Lobb will go.

I don’t think he’s part of the problem. He plays the secondary sacrificial role. Problem is that JUH and Naughton play the same style of game. Both are stay at home forwards. Either JUH gets on his bike and plays more in the style of Jezza or he goes.

Looking forward to the next post match press conference where Tom Morris asks Bevo about JUH’s long term future at the Bulldogs. Bevo v Morris round 2 lol.  No love lost there. Rumours can only help our chances of prying JUH loose.

They will sack Bevo before they let the Bont walk out. Take that to the bank.

Yep Bevo is on borrowed time!

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
