Good synopsis, Demoniac. I think the Foxtel cameramen were disadvantaged badly by the guernsey clash(worse in the bright sunlight).

I was at the game, and I found it a little tough to diffentiate the teams at times. Demons players wearing their - red - socks up helped.

Not much to add to what's been said before, except that we really suffered from a lack of structure up forward. So often we just had no one to kick it to beyond the centre of the ground, and I imagine that made some of our disposal / decision-making look even worse on TV.

Yes the clinical Kitty's clawed us until we were clueless...speaking of clueless - what about that away guernsey?

Well done to Martin, Garland, Buckley and Valenti who all showed something.

Strap yourselves in for a rollercoaster ride this season, we will cop the odd thumping but also pull of a some great wins, and come the end of the season we will have a much better developed list, and if thats not enough for you...

We still have the best song and jumper [season proper that is]

IMO we definately should have had a serious dip for the NAB Cup.

Stringing 5 wins together should be easier that making the finals and winning the big one in the premiership season.

Why not give the senior guys a decent hit out - afterall most of them sat on their laurels for most of last year.

It rubs salt into the wound for me that the club traded Trapper who put in such a great effort for the Brisbane Lions up at Carrara and all of our senior players are a complete embarassment against Geelong .... :rolleyes:

Now we still have to travel the country playing "challenge" matches in [censored] poor venues where we still risk injury to our players. :angry:

There is almost as much prize money in the NAB Cup as winning the Grand Final and we could sure use it and the extra memberships. It has helped Geelong and Carlton recently to stay up there. Why not us ???

As for that playing strip - what are the boffins that run our club seriously thinking ??? major embarassment all round.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
