    Dees List Envy of Competition

    To paraphrase just enough:

    There’s a backline that features Jake Lever, Mitchell (er, Michael) Hibberd and Neville Jetta, as well as former Gold Coast co-captain Steven May (plus Christian Salem).

    The engine room is led by the game’s premier ruckman in Max Gawn, who consistently dishes out hits to advantage to the likes of Clayton Oliver, Angus Brayshaw, Jack Viney (and James Harmes and Christian Petracca).

    That'll do me: I'm the envy of every other past Demons' supporting incarnation of myself.

    I don't know why the media keep harping on this:

    Given the dominance of Gawn, it was strange that North Melbourne back up ruckman Braydon Preuss was so keen to get to the Demons. Even more so given Kangaroos big man Todd Goldstein is in the twilight of his career, while Gawn has years ahead of him. Preuss has put it on the record that he believes he and Gawn can play in the same team, just like the Eagles premiership duo of Scott Lycett and Nathan Vardy did in 2018. But if it ain’t broke, why fix it?

    I simply cannot wait til the Gawn/Preuss tag team shuts these clowns up.

    Fugazi. 

    But I like it. 

    Yeah it is Fugazi but it beats the hell out of the negative [censored] we've endured for a decade. Also better than all the false dawns we've had. This feels completely different. Can we win a cup? [censored] I hope so.

    Meet Steven May

    I've been very impressed with Steven May and I cannot wait to see him run out in the red and blue come Round 1. Kudos to the recruitment staff for getting this done now before the vultures swooped. We got a huge asset to our backline and the team.

    Didn't know he was a pilot to boot. Another tick from me.

    I've now lowered my expectations on Preuss.

    Why? All reports about him so far have been extremely positive even the non-rose coloured reports. Sure it's pre-season training and everyone's up and about and training the house down but he could does fill a necessary hole for us and looks capable. Proof will be in the pudding. I'm certainly looking forward to the JLT series to see what he can do. Hopefully he'll make the cut for Round 1 and from there we'll see.

    Re: Round 1 clash versus the Demons.

    Well let’s hope it’s 2013 again I guess

    2019, just like 2018.

    Tough game first up :confused:

    Last time we played Melbourne in round 1 at the mcg is still one of the best days at the footy I have been too. The uncertainty of how we would go and the hype of the Melbourne supporters brutally rebuffed by a new free scoring port, the debut of Ollie wines and a jay Schulz mark of the year contender. Happy times. Hope for a repeat.

    Pencil that one in as a near certain loss.

    The only strength we have now is our inside 'bulls' as KT called them, and theyve been hammered inside by the maturing young group that Melbourne have for a while now. Theyve been too quick, reflexes too fast, and simply too hard for us. We got super lucky last time at home against them and we've only gotten worse since then, while theyve got a shitload of organic growth left in them.

    In a year where we will really struggle to make the top 12 let alone 8, its a terrible start.

    Nothing like starting the season with a 10 goal loss emoji28.png

    Always good to get games at the G

    Dees by 79 points.

    So we going to Crows vs Hawthorn to boo Chad :tongueclosed::tongueclosed::tongueclosed:

    Thread title needs to be changed to Swimming & [censored] Cup lol

    ----- I reckon old mate will be in the SANFL lol

    Lol who ******* cares. I'm still not even close to remotely wanting any sort of football.

    We will get smashed

    Bring back 2013.

    It'll be 237 days since our last win. We could be due.
