(It's their home game, right?)

Anyway, good to see Colvin back. Taylor the consequent last-in-first-out victim. Always awks after the fuss made on their debuts (K.Brown says hullo), particularly in Saraid's case with all her personality splashed over the Club's website before and after the game.

Take lots of Grippo, girls, and I hope there are a few more Dees fans at the game than just the spinning ones on the boundary line. Sounds like Aaron Davey will get a few there, at least?

    Really looking forward to this one.

    If we keep tackling with the ferocity we've shown of late, we should win this.

    Can’t help but admire how the Demons have turned their season around after shocking run with injuries and the loss of many players during the offseason!

    Good luck tonight!

    Must win

    Outstanding effort to turn the season around. I think the backs to wall win in Adelaide was the turning point.

    Hawks have been very good. it's a tough challenge so we'll need every bit of grit and determination to get the W

    Luckily, we have grit and determination in spades

    Dees by 7 points

    Good luck to our girls tomorrow it would be ultra sweet if to beat the Rising Hawks up in Cairns. Great to see Aaron address the team and give them a bit of a pep talk, he looks in great shape.

    Great effort by all and deserve to  make 8 if we beat the Hawks which will be very hard. But not impossible by any means. 

    BTW Timothy it is round 10 I believe. We have a 5/4 record.

    not sure about that as i think they do it on ladder position from previous years?

    does show what an absolute farce an 11 game season is instead of 17, especially when things like % can decide the grand final venue

    Yep, @biggestred, I think it's a reflection of their 14th finish, vs our 5th, last year?

    Also, though, something evidently in the 2024 water at Hawthorn?

    Definitely a big improvement from them but probably more a fighting for finals improvement rather than a might finish clear 2nd type improvement imho

    No The clubs classified as expansion get favourable draws then another lot (middle six) an harder draw and the top 6 which we are in got the harder draw.

    Massive game!!

    To be sure, DD!

    Indeed, for its consequences, it's a bit grand-final-ish.

    So, a dilemma for Mick in his pitch to the players: a do-or-die grand-final-ish rev-up, a middling 'use the experience for a finals campaign', or steady-as-she-goes with whatever has turned things around (simple and relaxed, effort and selflessness).

    Or are these all compatible?

    No free to air or free streaming. I cannot find a radio program, can anyone suggest a station that is broadcasting? 

    I think the AFLW is dropping the ball for the Demons. Such an important game for us.

    Yeah, you'd think with what riding on it and a top2 side playing they'll show it FTA.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.

      It's finally Game Day and the Demons, under new head coach Steven King, will run out onto the field with a new looking lineup and a brand new midfield when they take on the Kangaroos this afternoon at Casey.
