Docs Demons

Don't forget the U19's. Used to go to the GF in old days early watching first, the U19's then the 2's and of course the big one if still sober!

Top 4 with a real chance of finishing 1 or 2 plus a home prelim

Agree. NT has been good for us financially and last year even better winning both games. Correct me if I'm wrong but West Coast have never played at Alice so I take that as an advantage for us.

Agree here DD and Menzel would be an upgrade on Garlett who has trouble tackling and Spargo who has trouble finding the ball.

Agree. Not sure about a once in a generation key forward. Big statement. My generation has seen the likes of McKenna, Hudson, Dunstall, Lockett etc who all would eat Hogan for Breakfast. He is gone and for me I barrack for MFC not JHFC. Let it go as when RBD left I'm sure not many or any MFC supporters changed to Carlton or for that fact the many Hawk supporters moved to Swans when Buddy left. I follow MFC not a player. Took a while to get over Watts and see what he has done at Port so let's just get over Hogan and focus on the team we have, which I believe will give us plenty of smiles in coming years.

This to me is a win for us. 2 decent players in and a player in Hogan who would not have been committed next season if we knocked Freo back. Now we go forward in 19 to the next step and play off in GF whilst Hogan finishes bottom 4. It must be home factor and money for Hogan as I do not see the ball going to him enough to kick goals and boy if he sulked at times with us just watch him at Freo

Agree and if he wants to move back closer to family to assist in running the business then we should assist as long as we get what we want. I have no issues with those that are looking elsewhere. Except for Hogan the others are bottom 6 players or VFL at best. Certainly looks like we are clearing the decks for some serious trade action. Can't wait. Don't forget posters the nucleas of our side from Prelim game are still there!.

Concur. No way we trade Hogan for May. May would have made no difference whatsoever last Saturday as it was coming in at a rate of knots due to lack of forward and mid pressure. You could have had May, Rance and Lever and it would not have changed the result. Hogan is well liked by his team mates and I believe they would not be that happy if he goes and May comes in. Also May from what I hear at the Suns is not that well liked. I also do not rate him as a player or person and Hogan in my opinion (reiterate MY OPINION) has still plenty of upside.

Actually it was one of those days where all 22 were not sighted. Just not the leaders albeit they were poor. Need to learn from this, get improvement from within and snag a decent player in trade period and trust Lever and Hogan get back to their best. 2019 looks exciting to me.

I'm not happy with the season. If we had of won the games we should have we would not have been in Perth today!! The season is just not the last few games. It is all year and we blew heaps of chances to have the 2nd chance and play all games in Melbourne.

So disappointing to play our worst game for the season but boy did WCE come to play. They taught us a big lesson and can only hope most learn from it but unfortunately Lewis, Tyson, Spargo, Hannan and a couple of others will or should not be around next year to learn.

Cheers

I was a 12 year old and went to the G with a mate and his dad. All I can remember is we couldn't get into the Demon room after the game so snuck in the Maggies and saw the big Gabelich with a tallie of Melb bitter. Sticks out in my old mine like it was yesterday

Fellow Tassie Demon Supporters. Will be in Hobart this Saturday. Where is best spot/pub to watch the game with other Demon Supporters please. Thanks

Bit of a rumour around that Hardwick from Hawks maybe a late out.

Or Magpies. Now wouldn't that be one for the AFL. Back to 64!.

Flew down from Brisbane last Friday with Sons and Grand Sons. Cost a bit but well worth it as first time in over 20 years at G. Tonight all of us in front of TV yelling and screaming over many VBs

Bring the effort, pressure, tackling from last week and kick a bit better at goals and we should win but under estimate this mob at your peril.

He is bad news. Keep well away Dees!

Just got back home in Brissie after taking Sons and Grand Sons down for game. Being an ex Vic boy and been 20 odd years since at the G I could not ask any more from this team. We had an absolute ball amongst 80k Dee supporters at the G on Friday night. They bring the same intensity against the Hawks and clean up our entries into forward half and kick straight we are a big chance. It was unbelievable walking down to the G from our accom in East Melb. I reckon it must have been 3 to 1 Dee supporters out of ground and seemed about 10 to 1 in the ground. What a night.

Cheers Saty. Glad were back to the training thread!

This shambles is pathetic. Just trust you all finally get tickets like I finally managed. Coming down from Brisbane the Friday morning with Sons and 12 year old Twin Grand Sons. Hit Tulla 12.30pm. Bit early however have not been back in Melbourne for 20 odd years so looking for a place where the Demon faithful have a drink/feed before the game. All suggestions will be appreciated.

That is something that is missing . COMMON SENSE.

Cheers. Just got them however a pain it was. Even at end booked in for next available and page gave me Cat 2 which is good then timed out and back into payment and guess what they sold us Cat 3 up behind Goals. Assume at back of ground level behind cheer squad. At least got the tickets for boys and Grand Kids so here we come. Go Dees

I'm up in Brissie. Booked Accom and flights for 3 generations. Me Sons and Grand Sons. Same problem withTicketek and rang Tracy at Club. Not sold out just a issue with Ticketek. This is bloody stupid. Lion member mate of mine said the club gets the tickets for their members. That is what MFC should do!
