It's Game Day and whilst the Demons have been making the headlines for all the wrong reasons this week there are still two more games to go before we can officially say good night to this season from hell and our penultimate match up has us facing off against the Gold Coast Suns at their fortress at People First Stadium.

• Petracca, Oliver, May and Windsor out.

*Miller back for GC to further strengthen a potent midfield.

•South East Queensland’s hottest day forecasted in 4 months.

* MFC’s public relations at its lowest ebb since Norm Smith and the MFC had a minor disagreement.

*MFC’s first dead rubber since round 23 2019.

Aside from the above, I’m pretty bullish about today.

So you're telling me there's a chance?

 

🥳 🥳 🥳 GAMEDAY!!! 🥳 🥳 🥳

We’re gonna go out there today and we’re gonna kick the Suns into the middle of next week, nay, next MONTH! We’re gonna GIVE ‘EM HELL!!!

Oh, who am I trying to kid. Even I’m having trouble mustering up enthusiasm. Only got two hours sleep.  😭

All good though. I’ll smash these, then look out QLD!!! Incoming!!!

Our banner today says:

THE DEMON ARMY IS BACK IN TOWN

HERE TO WATCH THE SUNS GO DOWN

Clever huh. Now we just need to win. Last week we had DEMON SPIRIT VS DOGGY BITE and Doggy Bite won which sucks when you’ve decided to call them Doggy Bite.

🤭


tough assignment given our outs and their home record.

just show some heart and ticker boys. have a crack

go dees

I'm going to get in early on the 'what's your excuse' thread with a ten-hour day on a secure site. I won't even be able to check the scores until I'm out the door.

If people could tag me in the game thread posts to create an official Demonland match call which I can follow when I get home, that'd be great.

Hmm, funnily enough, the last time I can recall having to work in a secure environment throughout a Demons game was the 2000 finals win over North. Touch wood, similar result today.

Maybe it's what the team needs each break 

Couldn't hurt in these close losses of late.

With our outs and on their turf and our form, we should win this😃.

Just realised GWS v Freo is on at the same time. Gonna have to have two screens going.

Checking in from Ghent, fitting as possibly one of the major circus capitals of the world. Go Dees! 

Checking in from Cairns Airport, fitting as there are a lot of vacant stares, sobbing and crying and a general malaise, waiting for something to end the boredom. 
 

Hi @Skuit 👋 


Worst mathematical [censored]-tease in my life-time. Win by ten goals and wait for our three major competitors to slip against specifically the bottom three teams. Then see what happens.

The only thing I'm really looking for today is a game style where the 'chains are loosed' so the players can actually enjoy their footy. I don't particularly care about the result, so if it means we lose (which is likely anyway) then I'm more than ok with it. Hopefully it could be some kind of preview of a more attacking game plan for next year as well, but that may be asking too much.

If we play a slow, boring, defensive game style and eek out a 64-62 loss it will be a waste of a game in my opinion.

This  be is how I feel, play boring football it’s a waste, 

be free and enjoy your football   Much better to watch   Go Dee’s

Hi @Skuit 👋 

Hang out there until at least cyclone season for something interesting to happen, and then deal with that 100-year flop when it seems so close. 

It’s game day baby. Pumped!

let’s go Dees. Two wins to finish the season!

That's all well and good - but then if we lose, it's inferred that we lacked defensive structure and accountability.

Fair warning. Anyone not currently demonstrating the requisite levels of cynicism might open themselves up to accusations of being a troll, or even a happy-clapper.

15 of the passengers were DA. There’s already heaps of us there and there’s another two planes landing soon with more of us. Our cheer squad has the highest number of members who travel interstate. Repping the red n blue

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
