I just have this feeling we will win this week. Call me mad call me insane but I think this backs against the wall stuff will simply get us over the line. We should have our best line up all year with McVee, Windsor, Pickett and Spargo back. BOOKMARK IT

If we don't win I will go down to Gosh's paddock naked with the smallest of small flags to cover my privates!

    Time to go Werridee?

    Just kidding, I reckon we're a sneaky chance as well. 10 years ago we did it with Brayshaw having his best game ever and Gawn announcing himself. We're up against it again and Kosi Pickett might be just the spark our midfield, forwards and defenders sitting back need lol

    For a start McVee is still injured and is about 2-3 weeks away.

    Turner will be in after 5 goals for Casey.

    We should definitely have our best side in so far this season.

    I've never wanted to win a game as much as I do this one.

    Has @WERRIDEE revealed his true identity? Is his real name Ray Stevens?

    I'm with you! Feel like our senior players will lift and kozzy will bring a spark that we have been missing

    A lot of pride in this group, will come out with a lot to prove. Although I was thinking that last week before the suns game 😅

    I hope the boys don't read this W as they might be tempted to chuck this one just for the entertainment factor at Gosch's on Monday

    Just be careful as they're playing a bit of soccer at the moment and might mistake yours for....well you know. Things could get ugly!

    If the game is decided by speed of ball movement on offense, I can't see us winning

    Plus, it's Geelong at Geelong

    My attention will be on how our offense operates. A vast improvement would be needed in order to win so I'll settle on decent improvement

    That would raise the hopes looking ahead

    Yeah. But 10 years ago that side had some spirit and grunt, it would probably beat this current 2025 piece of [censored].

    I was at that Game in 2015. It’s the second best home & away win I’ve ever seen.

    The best was when we beat Hawthorn in 2016 just ahead of when Jack Watts kicked the sealer on QB in 2017.

    Funnily enough when Fritsch kicked that dribbler last year at the G that was an epic win. Pitty the only dribbling he is doing this year is the type that Bruce Willis was doing in 7 monkeys

    I’ve also got a sneaky feeling about this week. We may not win but I think we’ll play well. I also think we’ll win the following four games and be 4 and 4 after round 8. You heard it here first.

    I like this thread. Starting to feel optimistic about this game as well.

    would be brilliant if we could win at that sh*tpile.

    If you’d held off on posting until this morning, you could have claimed April Fools. Oh well. But given that it’s getting colder, we’ll understand why it’s the smallest of small flags.

    Four scenarios I can see happening:

    1) There are five golden tickets in the world and we found one of them (without the help of Veruca Salt's Dad buying 90% of the chocolate bars). We somehow pull off a ''backs to the wall'' miracle win.

    2) The performance I was expecting against Gold Coast and occurred in round 1. A well fought out 4 quarters with the lead ebbing and flowing all day, but we just fall short. A performance they can take confidence in with 3 bottom 6 sides coming up in the next month.

    3) A replica of rounds 2 and 3. A mistake riddled 3 quarters and then give up in the last. A 50-75 point loss with no signs of improvement.

    4) the players make a 2011 like statement. A vote of no confidence in the coach, the game plan and even off field leadership as we simply don't try on the way to a 130 point loss. The coach's role becomes untenable.

    Ok....but you can't possibly be wrong outlining these. Take a risk, which scenario are you going with? I think Im with scenario 2.

    I was pretty keen on that last game in September 2021.

    Probably scenario 3.

    We're not quite at Fitzroy levels or Melbourne circa 2013 to allow a 120 point loss.

    We get better with the expected ins this week, the cats aren’t flying (although they’re better on their own soccer pitch), you’d expect some sort of bounce after the heat we’re copping.

    Need the mids to at least breakeven, and find a way to hit a forward with the football. Goals are coming almost by accident at the moment.

    I don’t see a win here but I’m all for the positive thinking.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
