Well after a week of abject misery about ...well every single thing related to the dees ...Ive been visited by a strange sense of hope. The " what ifs" are getting louder. I may well regret this but dees up by 6 goals at half time and win by by 10 points.

    2012, round 10, winless Dees came up against 2nd on the ladder Bombers. Need, yet to record a win, swung Garland forward and he kicked 2 goals in the last to win the match for us. I missed the game for a friend of a friend's bucks party and won a ps3 as part of the deal.

    I'll be missing tonight's game because it's the first night of Passover and I'll be with my family. I'll be sure to keep an eye on the game though. Is Goodwin capable of unconventional moves? Doubtful! Is there a chance we can win? Absolutely!

    Go Dees!

    I imagine a lot of supporters will passover tonight to watch.

    When do they announce the Sub, trying to get interested, any chance of a late change?


    I hope we get smashed and say bye to Goodwin and jones. If anyone remembers the kind of commentary Nate jones made on channel 7, that should have been enough evidence for him not to get the job. Very basic, very gross and un-nuanced.

    Club absolute shambles. Game gone so far past Goodwin.

    for the sake of the future of this club, please for the love of god lose by 10 goals tonight.

    Otherwise it’s just delayed pain as Goodwin and jones take us to nowhere land for another 3 years

    I’ve been trying out the sound of ‘go pies’ just out of sheer self-respect

    A lot of that is correct aside from hoping to lose and cheering on the Pies.

    No chance to win

    16 premiership players & can’t really think of any of them improving in 4 seasons

    Maybe Kozzie & Rivers

    We will turn things around tonight Bombers to win by 47 pts. Our percent should rise by 0.7 %

    We are in for an awful night tonight, the team selection is so unbalanced. Doesn't matter how bad essendon are on paper, we won't connect forward of centre and fail to score more than 8 goals for the game. Happy to be proven wrong but can't see it happening.

    With the Blues winning...the eye of Sauron moves from Voss onto Goodwin.

    I’m going against my better judgement and gonna watch tonight. At least if we lose and I can’t sleep the masters is onwith Jday in the top 10!

    I actually think playing a small fwd line might work

    we have zero tall fwds in form

    Langford Trac Fritsch Melk will play well

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
