Kozzieland in the Alice, let's unleash the Demon within.

Carn you Dees!

💯❤️💙🫶🏆🥇🎯🎟🧿💰


Game starts at the ungodly hour of 5am my time so I will most likely be watching later at breakfast and coffee. People coming for lunch so I will celebrate/drown sorrows with some excellent wine and food. 
 

Dees to win in AFS by 5 goals and move into 3rd on the ladder.

    I took a leisurely drive to the game in Alice last year. What a shock and [censored] show that turned out to be!

    This year, I am firmly ensconced at The Manor for what I expect to be a tough and close struggle.

    Max will simply have to be more superhuman than ever as he is facing a two on one against a couple of serious players. As a team, a slow start must be avoided and we will need to take all our chances inside 50.  Fritta is always reliable but we will need contributions from McAdam and Petty.

    Our defence will be the difference.

    Dees by 13 points.

    Not certain, but I think this is one ground where we kick particularly poorly for goal.

     

    Just back from France and Portugal. Jet lag had me up at 3am. I’ve had breakfast and read the news, but the game is still 8 hours away. Go Demons.

    We are actually ok at kicking for goal at Traeger Park, this is without OOF and no score shots.

    Last year was a shocker, but the conditions were putrid.

    In 9 games we are 106.95 since 2014.

    Under Goody total is 77.64

    2017 - 18.14 v Suns (W)

    2018 - 23.8 v Crows (W)

    2019 - 11.12 v Eagles (L)

    2020 - 8.4 v Saints (W)

    2022- 12.11 v Port (W)

    2023 - 5.15 v Giants (L)

    Well I got that wrong.

    Must have been swayed by last year.

    Game could go either way. Very similar for points for and against. One of the teams most similar to us in strengths and weaknesses, will mostly be up to our personnel to get it done. Need to curtail the likes of Young, Serong and Frederick.

    I'm currently in the latter. 4am start. 

    Feels like a home-game though, as I've spent a bit of time living in Darwin in recent years. Shame AMW didn't get a call-up, just a 15 hour drive for his kin.

    Chandler noted the sun was beating down at 18C in Alice yesterday, hopefully it's not too slippery. 

    Perfect conditions for footy and a typical Alice winter day, glorious sunshine, dry and a cool light breeze. The ground is looking good despite the rain earlier in the week. I’m not confident but I never am. MFCSS is real 😬🔴🔵🏆

    I’ll take the 23.8. Actually 8.4 likely gets it done against Freo. Don’t care what it looks like we just need to get it done today.

    it'll be a tough contested game. Freo no world beaters but they'll put up a fight. They remind me of us in a lot of ways. Plenty of heart and endeavour but not the most skilled.

    Max has a busy day ahead dealing with Darcy and Jackson. He'll earn his pay check today. 

    Amiss is a very good forward but has a bad case of the yips at the moment. hopefully he doesn't rediscover his mojo against us. if he does we could be in trouble.

    I think this is Kossies stage. He'll put on a show and get us over the line.

    Fremantle’s best is very good, hope our pressure is up from the very start.

    I reckon supporters of both sides will be wondering which version of their own team will turn up today. Or not turn up.

    I think the hurricane last year didn’t help 😂

    50-50 game really however with the competition so close, we really need to win today and next week to have a  real solid shot at top 4.

    Now go out there and do what you did in this game in 2022… kick a lazy half dozen and whip the local kids into unbridled frenzy.

    Dees by 16, midfield and ruck battle will be immense. Our class in the forward line will take us over the line. They simply don't have the same fire power we do, if we get supply we should win.

    Game day baby. Pumped! 
     

    Go Dees. Need this win.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
