(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.

    Pedal to the metal girls

    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.

    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: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
