Roost it far

Then you see Geelong beat WC in 2nd gear and that’s where we need to get 2. Even flat we got 19 points up and just needed to put the foot down and kick a couple more and we likely would have had them. Not to be. It’s hardly throw out the toys time.

I was sure we moved on from these losses. They looked flat from the beginning and once Essendon had a sniff it was all over. Move on fast, rest anyone who needs it and bat up again next week. Big test at the G, the crowd just shrank by 7500 though.

The universe blinked, I swear we won that in my world!

It’s possible Green tied himself to his own call of the starting midfield. I understand his desire to keep them together as the club was generally imploding at the time.

I’d say it already has. Stubborn egos at the top have chained that club to ordinariness and I for one am very happy with that. They could finish bottom this year. On past selections that won’t guarantee them a good player.

What’s the main change at the club, personnel or mindset?, that means we simply don’t lose games such as Saturday’s comfortable win against Essendon? Or is it a combination of both?

Using the ARC for OOB…..The AFL should hang their heads in shame.

That was the clown show next door that is Essendon atm

I’m feeling another solid step forward for Latrelle this week. Bombers have no hope. If I was them I’d consider a forfeit, save on the airfares and embarrassment of losing 18 games in a row. Looking forward to our next challenge against the Bears.

My vibes are so strong on victory this week that I’d lend you the cold hard to make the bet but there’s something about stats folk that’s just a bit off. 🤓

If we keep winning and keep selling the club the way we are atm I’d say we’ll comfortably get to 65-68,000 this year.

If I was a gambling man I’d put everything I had on us to beat Essendon knowing that it was a certainty.

Thirdly, they are completely rubbish and we aren’t the team we were the last few years. We have hunger and youth, the bombers won’t know what hit them.

I wasn’t overly bullish about this season but having watched the first month I see no reason we can’t finish between 4 and 7 and have a crack.

I doubt Melksham will play every game even if not injured. I reckon the club will manage him in the hope he’s cherry ripe come September. A fit Melksham is a must come finals.

My reaction Demonland’s reaction

My very limited understanding of what went on suggests the meeting was organized to stop the speculation around may and his partner being discussed around the club. I may well be wrong about this though. Looks like the intentions were good and the execution very poor.

There's absolutely no universe where we lose to Essendon this week. Our side is clearly hungry, playing great football and has what I believe is a huge hunger to succeed right now. On top of that there's no manufactured "love" here, just a united and happy team. This is in stark comparison to the team we've rolled out the last few years. I don't know which games most of you have been watching but if you've watched the first 4 games you'd have no doubts about this week.

We need to be beating Essendon regardless of their lineup.

Whilst I think Laurie is likely to be replaced if we have a fit replacement I think the kid deserves 3-4 games to see if he can find a role.

This may have been mentioned but how good does it feel watching Gawn totally rip games apart. Without being a stats man it really appears we’re getting centre clearance dominance more this year than ever.

They’re tough, these Demons. I’ll say it again. There’s a touch of John Northey in this team. How farkun good was that.

Not to mention Sharp is thriving currently. Laurie's going to have to play the games of his life to grab a spot. Rivers, Fritsch, Bowey, Viney, Kentfield all to come in at some stage.
