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.

What was the deal with ports sign with the cartoon car?

3 minutes left and 2 goals down.

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

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

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.

    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. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
