Roost it far

I say crash and burn this season, make it a spectacle.....lose to North, which is already a distinct possibility, get pick 3 or 4 and the win the Flag in 2025. Losing Brayshaw has really hurt us, losing Petracca has ended us for this year.

Didn't the skipper just the other day question our culture? For mine Monday's game is just so important. I still can't believe whats occurred over the last 3 weeks. Even though I was pretty harsh on us prior to the season I still had us finishing anywhere from 1 - 12. Prior the WC game I was feeling pretty good even after losing to Carlton again. But sheesh WC followed up by Freo?? I have no idea where we stand as a team atm, I'm leaning toward all talk but we still have just enough time to surge. I do believe we load at this time and trust that we've set ourselves for the Pies. To have any 2024 cred we kinda have to win this.

It’s a long way back from here…….a long, long way. Croquet anyone?

We got hell to unleash, unfortunately it unleashed on us.

I have no doubt, I’m just interested keeping an eye on it for games. Is there a website?

Anyone point me to the expected score from Friday but not on twitter X

We didn’t lose the game because of the umpires but the AFL absolutely need to move to a professional model.

I hope there’s someone giving you a lot of hugs.

At least you can go to your meeting!

Life has to suck, so when it’s not sucking it’s extra good.

Don’t remind me. All I want is to jam Collingwood a new one on KB and then again in the finals. Personally I think that’s being very reasonable considering the circumstances. But first let’s just win tonight. Go Demons, unleash hell.

I used the wrong emoji first time up! sad day indeed.

The final against Carlton was a low point. I’ve ranted enough about that so we move to tonight. On first look I think we’re in for a 4 goal win but each time I look the margin gets closer. Cripps is a beast and Walsh is all class. If our mids aren’t on we’re in trouble. FFS kick straight and just win and preferably easily, if that’s even possible anymore.

I made it very clear sometime ago that I and many others require solid training reports by early afternoon. So please stop complaining about us complaining.

My thoughts are that the Blues will tire more than the Demons. You’ve had a gruelling 4 matches and you’ll be doing well not to be a tad physically and emotionally spent. I think that’s the opposite of what many feel is our 5 day break disadvantage.

That’s the worst training thread I’ve ever read but I found it rather enjoyable all the same.

They’ve played more footy than us lately. We’ve had a bye pre Richmond and 10 days pre Cats, I think it’ll be the Blues who are flat. They’ve had successive big games against GWS, Pies and Cats. We should be pretty close to cherry ripe.

Hard to argue but I’d also be happy to go unchanged.

I think we’re all still guessing. I’m in the happy if he stays and happy if we get a top 10 and a top 20 pick for him. The biggest advantage of him staying besides his obvious talent is every time an in doubt player signs it builds something intangible within the club and supporter base. It says to the football world “Why on earth would I leave this awesome club” For me, had I been good enough, all the money in the world wouldn’t have me leaving the Demons. P.S I was so bad at football I umpired 🤦‍♂️

I do what I can and I do it for the people. 💪

How does Roy end up a demon? is he in the mid season draft?

It’s not uncommon to play with 3 key targets in a forward line. Your boy Jefferson better get used to that

I never did anything other than back him in so count me out. My preseason comments were club focused. Besides this is a footy forum, we’re hear to listen to opinions. Some turn out wrong others don’t. It’s all part of the ride.

I baked myself a humble pie after looking at my preseason posting, happy to bake another for a few of you who dismissed Petty. I make it with lemons, nice and sour.

Parfitt and O’Connor are hardly top liners. Dangerfield out was the helper
