(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.

    TRAINING: Friday 6th December 2024

    Some veteran Demonland Trackwatchers ventured down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you the following observations from another Preseason Training Session. WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th December 2024

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
