I hope we can settle into this game a bit earlier then the last two games. More for our collective nerves then anything else.

We certainly don't want to let them get the clearance/stoppage dominance they got in the first half of last years game!

Dees by two goals 

This is a danger game Brisbane is Full of confidence knocking off a great team in North Melbourne, apparently the energy and spark is back, 😭😭😭😭😭😭

My memory is BP left the club early 2012 and went to Carlton. Todd came in and was calling the shots at trade time late 2012. He has to wear the Wines non selection. He knew how good Wines was and knew Toumpas as well. I thought the reason given as to why we went for Toumpas was that we didn’t need 2 in and under bulls. To be fair all the experts were a big wrap for Toumpas but we never saw why that was. 

Touumpas was playing senior footy in SANFL, winning a premiership before he was drafted, I believe it was the media and the fans, constantly reminding him he's not as good as wines, the pressure got to the kid

If the feedback was actually intended to be positive, thats fine - but did it need its own post? A comment on the pod post or a DM would suffice. 

To echo everyone here, the pod is great. Thanks to those who take the time out of their day to create awesome content for us for free. 

I think he's definitely Dermot

Was that story true? Did you have an encounter with the Derm?

Yes, go to demon land Facebook page, look at comments, on the demon land podcast on the Adelaide game, there are pictures to prove

It’s not so much that I’ve got a short attention span, just that I’ve got a young family, have other podcasts I try to also fit in during the week, and consequently barely ever have a free 2.5 hours for it. It wasn’t meant as an insult and glad @binman didn’t take it as such.

For those who are retired or with a bit more time on their hands, I’m sure it’s less of an issue.

Well yes I am sure the guys will change the format immediately,  surely just for you

It's difficult to say how the algorithms of the podcasting apps work and it's even more difficult when the podcast is extremely niche. That is, the potential audience is finite. We're 1 team out of 18 in 1 code played in only 1 country in the world. Who knows what the potential audience is? Not every Dees supporter is going to be interested in listening to a podcast.

I guess the more listens a podcast gets the more that podcast will get boosted up the algorithm and the more positive feedback we receive in the form of giving the show 5 Stars and writing a review will likely do the same.

Listening on the apps will boost the numbers more than by listening live so I guess having live listeners on the website might take away from that.

Having said that I consider having the show live on Demonland to be a form of advertising as it might get passerbys who are having a browse to listen in for a bit and say "hey I might give that podcast a listen offline" so in effect the live show can potentially bring in new listeners on the apps.

Most of the users of Demonland are readers and not posters. 80-90%. I have met many people over the years who read Demonland every single day but have never posted or even signed up.

This show must stay live or you will never get your no 1 caller, calling  in,  Enzo is great

Everyone got to make a living, coaches hate him, it makes for great media content

With all due respect to the contributors, there’s absolutely zero doubt that the podcast would be twice as good if it were half as long.

It's great but for people with short attention spans like yourself it can be too much

Great stories. The amount of crap ive copped from Crows fans for the Lever trade, well there all gone.

That's strange the crap did not end after his second season, as we have been a much better side then them since he left them.

Trac joked about it in an interview when the Daniel Gawn sling was mentioned. Said he told Gawn not be so soft or words to that effect. Gawn definitely over egged it

 That is  rubbish, gawn did not over egged it, once they went over line max put his hands up and Daniel's decided to throw him to the ground.

You can have great players and still underachieve if the culture isn't right.

Fitness falls under selfless; not just coasting along on your talent.

They say Richmond has a good culture because they can tell jokes at the half time huddle,I don't think many jokes where told at halftime huddles this year, when you are winning you are allowed enjoy your footy have a smile on your face, when  you are losing your not allowed to even smile.

They were all there together in 2020. So what changed?

Natural improvement people forget that great players where not great all the time, Gary Ablett Jr average 16 positions a game in his first hundred games, Dusty' did not play his best footy until 2017, before that he was a solid player, petracca is showing his greatness about the same age as  Dustin Martin did,  without talent and great  players you can't become a great side,

There are lots of different perspectives around what culture means, I take it to mean 'a way of doing things'. This year we moved to a 'selfless/ team-first' culture; it paid dividends. 

Yes that's true, but take Out Oliver, track, gawn, and all of those things   won't win you a cracker

All this talk about clubs culture, what is culture? There is only 2 forms of culture a winning culture and a losing culture, demons winning they must have good club culture, Hawks are now have a bad culture, swings and roundabouts.

I have a friend who is a St Kilda tragic and we talk about the team from time to time and I looked at their season with fresh eyes they had a larger injury list than MFC, the older recruits like Hannebery played very little football in the last 3 season 17 games last year he played 8 of the games in a 17 game season, Frawley 2 games, Ryder 12 games, Jones 13 games, Carlisle 4 games and Kent 7 games.

These are the so called high profile recruits who were going to get them into finals and maybe a premiership, if you cannot get your best cattle on the park and play together building a team cohesion then you have no chance of making finals or premierships.

My theory is that if you can get at 16 of the your best 22 to play most of the season together and the bottom 6 improve then anything is possible provided the team has 20 very good to great players and at least 10 good players on your list with little to no injuries.

We did get this scenario this year and if it continues into the future we will be very hard to beat again for the finals and a premiership.

Their best side is still only a 6 to 10 side, most of their injuries are from old players, like Ryder.

After the saints smashed north in a practice game by 90 points they where crowned one of the flag favourites, I was laughing at the time, all the talk before we played them was how much better they are then us, because they smashed north in a practice match, and how bad we where because we lost to  the Bulldogs in a practice match, where most of the side was rested, then we beat them and it was all about how many injuries they have.LOL they are a joke with a old list and that's the joke.

What a great video. Fantastic, we are no longer compared to that Rabble. 
Seeing Rod Butters Coked off his box a few years ago in my local Supermarket, summed them up beautifully. 
All those consecutive losses against them, are now inconsequential.

That said Ratts is a good Coach, will they win one soon?

 

No they will not win one soon, their trading over the last 3 years has made their list the second oldest list in the AFL, the only thing they will win soon is a another spoon.

I’ve been very kind to our current players but I did say that Sparrow had the impact of a sparrow fart in an earlier game and that Jackson was a bit vanilla.  Apologies for that. 

You must be have  only scooped the vanilla out of the  Neapolitan ice cream tub, everyone else could see Jackson  is a tub of Neapolitan ice cream.
