Well all now the first 1 minutes if Melbourne are going to turn up.

Our bottom 6 players will determine if we win today.

Billings, Laurie, Turner, Howe’s, Chandler & Tom “Free Fallin” Petty.

What, like last week when we looked completely on in the first 10 mins then proceeded to [censored] the bed for the following 3.5 quarters? :P

Glad Jvr is back. Surely Fritta is due for a bag or Kozzie?

Come on fwds do your job. Same to Mids. Fire up 

I suspect we will be competitive for three quarters and probably beaten in the last.

We have certainly painted ourselves into a corner talking this one up.

Love this place when people come in to offer some insight whether that's through their sources or whatever and get absolutely smashed for passing on information. 

Classic Demonland.

Lol, mate, you do the exact same thing.

Not a gambler but noticed just now Dee's firming still. 

Fascinating

Apparently the club took heed to last weeks issues and the boys are getting a mani and pedi as we speak. 
 

The bookies are worried about being out of pocket after seeing the red and blue nail polish being delivered by Uber. 🤭

No doubt all the Pies morons at the ground will be in full [censored] mode.

Huge game.

With our insipid performance last week we have put ourselves under huge pressure - both in terms of our effort levels being rightfully knocked all week and the need for the four points.

But the pies also desperately need a win to keep in touch with the 8.

We played poorly in our previous losses, but the freo game was different.

Understanably, there has been some strong comments and condemnation on dl this week. 

But i dont take anything from last week in terms of our game plan, sytems, personel and lines. 

Apply that level of effort and any meaningful analysis is superfluous.

But this is goody's 8th season as coach and that was the only time under goody that we appeared to give up. 

They have earned the benefit of the doubt.

But they get that benefit just once. 

I'm super excited. 

I am firmly of the view that in terms of method our plan is to revert to our normal method, with improvements to our turnover game, come the end of the season.

I think we will revert to that model today. Forward half, contest based, win the inside 50 count football (and go back to a more transition based game against the roos).

Basically the same model we employed the last time we played the pies.

And I suspect we have long set ourselves for this game, and planned accordingly in terms of our high performance program.

I hope I'm right. We will know if I am pretty early I reckon. 

Dees by 27.

From our named fwd line of Jvr, Fritta, Petty, Chandler, Kozzie and Anb we have averaged 40 points.

I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Tmac moved again. Something has to change

Don't share your optimism Binman. Wheels are off for mine. Can't see us kicking a winning score. Pies by 10 goals.

Carlton also 2nd on the ladder playing our exact 2023 game plan but with some better forwards. Just shows it still goes alright. Will be great to see the contest and territory game back today.

If we win by any amount, it will be a win for the ages.

Just listened to Richo on SEN.

He didn’t say this in so many words but it felt as though there’s a concession from the club that we’ve overreacted from our 2 finals (where we dominated in either scoring shots or entries) and that we’re quite frankly struggling to adapt to a game plan focused on connectivity.

Be interesting if we’ve drawn a line in the sand of if we persist with whatever we’re doing.

We are a curious mob, us passionate footy fans

Many dees fans are hoping we go back to a game plan that last year many hated and wanted to see the back of.

This is better than listening to BT.

One of the true highlights of following this club was this blokes post match interview.

Please just play for each other and do this for Gus.

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int

    POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood

    The Dees played insipid, error riddled & uninspiring footy all night and in a lightning delayed match they eventually succumbed to Collingwood by 46 points at the MCG in the final game of the year. Thank God this season is finally over. Bring on 2025.
