No one tipped us for the spoon. this is above average for the Demons

If we get screwed on this I will lose it We should instantly put in a request to have round two moved to the G from Marvel

Maybe it means going to Hell and then going back to Hell. We’ve definitely done that

two bottom 6 teams or maybe even bottom 4 - let them play at Marvel two teams that should play finals or be very close - play the G. end of.

How about Essendon go [censored] themselves!!??

Daw turns 30 next week so hopefully he realises his potential soon! He has been tried forward and mostly failed, lacking the footy smart imo. he is a solid backman though

Can't believe only 19 days to go! B: Jetta- May - Lever HB: Rivers- Tomlinson - Salem C : Langdon - Petracca - Baker HF: Fritsch - McDonald - Jones F: Spargo - Jackson - Chandler Foll: Gawn - Oliver - Viney I/c: Bowey- Neal-Bullen - Petty - Harmes Emerg: Laurie - Jordon - Hibberd - Sparrow Next in line - Hunt, Rosman, VDB Assuming Melk, Pickett and Angus not match fit. Perhaps Harmes (or bring in VDB) to try to run with the beast Fyfe

I assume there only 1 preseason game? so this and then round one, 12 days later? makes getting the team match fit pretty tough. expect some poor skills and busted guts in round 1. especially not being used to long games

Excellent news, thanks. squad is shaping up nicely for round 1. tall fwds an issue but aside from that, should be a good list to choose from.

Judd clearly the best first 100 games out of that lot imo, but Clarry would be in the mix for second place.

Love your work Mr. Fence. Great to have some positive news regarding returning players. We especially need Viney fit and firing for round 1 to make sure the intensity is 100% and flat efforts Less than 3 weeks until round 1!! ps. did you see young Angus? any update?

I just keep thinking of his legendary commentary quotes "you'd think the next goal is important, wouldn't you?" Yes Bruce, it's the last quarter and the margin is 5 points

I’ll never hear ‘Great call BT’ again ??

Ooooooh he knew how to commentate didn't he

people forget how good the older players were. I wonder what people will think of Gawn in 2045. for now, I am happy we have a fantastic ruckman and great leader. I reckon Petracca is the best player in our team so Gawn the best of all time? maybe when he is the best player in the current team

He is great with the Athletics and horse racing, however his footy commentary in recent years has been horrible. I wish him well. But let's hope a new generation of commentators comes through that actually call the action that is happening rather than repeating the same tripe each week and maintaining obvious biases

anyone throw up in their mouth a bit at the last sentence? James Brayshaw will step into McAvaney’s spot on Friday nights along with Brian Taylor

Devastating for the bloke. He has gotta be thinking - is his body up to the rigors of AFL if he cant get through preseasons.

Certainly agree. We don’t have any performing forwards aside from Hore. Not much depth in the midfield and lack skill across the squad

You can’t have your captain shanking kicks. She needs to handball more coz it rips the momentum apart 2 goals 18 carrying on from last week. Pathetic. The pies almost stopped in The 3rd and we still couldn’t score

The umps are bog so far. They were going at one free kick every minute in the first ten. joke. Let them play

Only 23yo averaged ~30 touches over the past 4 seasons. Adjusting last year for shortened games remarkable.

Amazing drafting by the Demons. This kids will be a gun on HB. Should be in 22 for round 1. Speed and kicking skills desperately needed down back

Has played an amazing last 100 games not up there yet with Neitas 300 games or Lyon but if Gawn plays another few great seasons he will be. Hopefully Clarry and Trac are in the conversation in 10 years

Couldn't watch the game but after reading the gameday thread I am booking GF tickets with one hand and slitting my wrists with the other. I assume the truth lies somewhere inbetween??
