Should this week be called Raw Binman or Roar Binman after we dispatched the Lions last week and are planning how to destroy the Tigers this week?

To see both of them kick 3 or 4 goals each would be terrific as you know there would be a few crackers in the mix!

Swans by plenty!

I wouldn’t want to be on your not like list! I like Riv - could be prudent to trade him! Harsh!

The need for speed!!!! He is also good at getting the ball, just needs simple instructions on what he does when he gets it!

Averaging 101 against is obviously too high, with Bowey, Rivers, Salem, CJ all out we are missing some experience that will help. The other factor is a new game plan takes time to settle, let’s see where we are at the end of the season. I’m not sure who mentioned it or even the thread, but Collingwood were run & gun when McCrae took over, they are back to conservative keep the ball today. They had luck winning their flag, but most teams do. Let’s see where we finish playing style by years end? My preference is play fast but we definitely need to improve our defence! Or perhaps how we defend is more accurate!

While I’m a fan of TMac, I would rather play one of younger guys than him. Also would leave Laurie in for 2-3 more weeks so he gets 4-5 games - I’m not a Laurie fan but give him enough games to see what he can do! I wasn’t mad about Tholstrup or Sharp last year but both have significantly improved this year. Sharp didn’t get a lot of the ball yesterday but when he did was very damaging vs last year disposal was poor. Also great to see Roo deliver on the big stage! King is backing the kids and they are rewarding him! One of the posters pre game compared the Lions bench to ours and then add 12 Demons hadn’t played 50 games, when you take into account those facts it was a remarkable win!

Woohoo

Very low expectations so hopefully Demons can surprise! 😄 Go Demons!

And giving imaginary free kicks! Just like match day!

There must be a twist with your obsession for Jeffo, your going to come out & say I’m Jeffo’s DAD after he has a good game!

Our best beat the team on top - Suns, our worst lost to the bottom team - Bombers! While Suns are more likely a 3-6 ladder team, Bombers are a 13-18 team, hopefully 18! Demons need to bring our best most weeks to win, our worst won’t beat anyone! Expectations should be for 7-12 wins. Of our players: TMac looking very slow, feels like Petty better option, Salem slow but his best is still okay, Lever slow but can still intercept, Would be good to see AMW get a go and also Bowey back to add a bit of leg speed. Melksham more as a pinch hitter, than every week, as Mihocek, JVR, Fritsch and Melky combined make us a little slow, I think one of Heath or Kentfield on bench or rotating ruck forward will be good to see and give Max the odd chop out! The young guys will be a bit inconsistent, but rather than wholesale changes reacting to a bad week, I’d rather see it managed carefully. Would prefer see them get 5-6 games and give them a proper run before dropping them! Also puts pressure on guys missing out to knock the door down in the VFL! Unfortunately AFL fixture is VFL is disgraceful making it hard for players to show form in actual games with ridiculous byes early in the season! If Salem injured he is obvious out, TMac struggling another out and one other would be it maximum for me.

The season is going to be a roller coaster, dropping half the team after a loss even a bad loss is an overreaction! That King used lethargic to describe the teams effort highlights how bad the team as a whole performed. Be surprised to see more than 1-2 changes unless injury related, as same team played very well against Suns! Patience will be required inn2026 as a Demon supporter. Go Demons!

Your 15yo note gives your hatred context but the filth and Maynard honestly 💩🤮🤮🤮

I’ll be happy with a “WIN”! However a 137 point win would make me De - lirously’ happy!
