    Just another reminder as to how far this club has come. Another night to open proceedings with the eyes of the entire footy nation upon us. 

    What a time to be a Dee!

    Or something like that..

    One swallow is often one too many: it's called a Hangover.


    Just listening to the pre game on Fox.

    King told the story of his coaching days at Carey when Jack Viney was there.

    He said they had to take Jack out of some games because he was too tough for the other kids !!

    Under 18's apparently !!!!

    All good over here. Had shower and shave..... breakfast over and I am locked and loaded watching the pre-game and there is no Bereton.... life is pretty good at the moment.

    Expect a tough tight game for a quarter/quarter and a half and then we will look to take charge. Petracca and Oliver to have big games in the midfield with Brown and Fritsch to have good games up forward.

     

    Dees by 4 goals.

    Didn't Crows make five changes?

    Fresh legs or lack of synergy/ experience?

    The Adelaide Oval is no MCG. My husband said the hot dogs are terrible.

    I had no idea where we would be seated but thank God I’m in an all Dee area. Not a Crows supporter in sight of me.

    Its not only a pain to play a home team but to do it on opening night is the double whammy.

    Have become increasingly nervous as the day goes on. 

    Win and we temporarily go top at 4-1. Lose and we’re in the middle of the pack at 3-2.

    I've heard Grinter was even worse. I think he actually ended the odd career.

    3 minutes left and 2 goals down.

    The signal was get going like the car at all costs. We're running out of time.

    • Thanks 2

    To our players: please avoid sending low balls to Petty.

    To Petty: If a low ball comes your way, don't try to catch it with your hands. Use another part of your body to control it, resulting in a loose ball or a stoppage situation. You've had three lessons already, we need you to stay healthy.

    Go Dees!

    Molloy on Footy show said it was the 'game over' signal encouraging the Port fans to leave & go steal a car from the carpark to get home

    • Haha 6

    I watched 5 mins of channel 7 pre-game, and 10 minutes of Fox pre-game. I have been savagely reminded why I rarely watch any AFL pre-game on TV. Mind numbing, superficial, repetitive twaddle as an excuse for insight. Mute button on, browsing through YouTube and Facebook until I see the coin toss happen in the back ground. 

    Just start the game for (insert expletive of choice here) sake!!

    Troy Wilson was even worse than both of them without doing anything. Half a dozen blokes ended up with long term injuries colliding into him in his first season. Noting, he didn’t play for MFC, but was a legend.

    And it was nice of Fritta telling Port fans after kicking the sealer it was time to go home.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
