Beers open, tunes on, game day is here. Haven’t given it a second thought during the week, been really busy at work, but has sunk in this morning. A chance to make history. Here we [censored] go. Carn the dees!

Very little to do in Perth after 9pm of a weeknight anyway, especially up Joondalup way where their hotel is/I live. Media trying to create a story out of nothing. Best ignored 

😭😭😭

The word legend gets thrown around far too often, but is entirely justified here. Stuck with us for 15 odd years through some real lows when he could have gone to a cup contender. Just a shame he's not part of next weekend.

Hope he gets a farewell lap at the G infront of 100k (with the cup 🤞) once covid fks off

Thanks for everything jonesy

Got mine [censored] yeah!!!!!

Mrs misses out but thats just unlucky.

Massive thanks to @jules7 for helping me with the prelim and this one.

Going for a stiff drink to calm down now

Edit to add, if any WA dees from up Joondalup way fancy a pint before getting the train to the game, give me a yell

My screen not showing a countdown like usual...is everyone else getting the same?

 

Thanks

Nope, working for me - try refreshing the page - queue just opened for P1 members

If anyone has any spare P3 codes they would like to pass on i would be very grateful

To any other Queensland based members, what are the chances of WA downgrading Queensland from “low risk” to “very low risk”?I’m guessing bugger all after a few recent cases popped up?

Im tossing up getting a ticket on the minuscule chance we get downgraded sometime in the next 2 weeks and don’t have to quarantine.

If you have community cases at the moment, no chance. 
 

McGowans rules are minimum 28 days with no community cases before he will even consider reducing restrictions

Am I the only one that's been sitting at my desk all day but have done absolutely nothing? 

Nope

Our mental fortitude and ability to wrest momentum has been the most important development in this team this season. I’m confident we will perform tonight and handle anything the Cats throw at us.

I’m hoping that every WA Demon will be at the game. I hope you bring along as many of the locals as you can to barrack for us as well. I’m prepared to suspend my dislike of West Coast supporters if they are prepared to cheer us along (and boo the Cats) just for this 24 hours.

Low work productivity, high anxiety day coming up

I’m going with 5 eagles fans. All going for us. General feeling is that vast majority of neutrals over here will be supporting us tonight.

Nerves starting to kick in now. Lunch beers might be in order. 
 

Go Dees!!!

Only moved to Oz (Perth) in 2007 so haven’t been to a huge number of games. 

First game was a win v Richmond at the MCG in June 2011

Best game was a win v Geelong in Geelong June 2015 - was the dees first win in Geelong in 20 odd years or something. Was the coldest I have ever been at a footy game too, absolutely freezing. 
 

Worst game was 2018 prelim against the eagles. Went in confident after beating them a few weeks before and game was over by quarter time. Spent the second half in the bar

Glad people are happy to help out - only thing I would say is beware of new Demonland members requesting tickets as they may be looking to scalp tickets in Perth. I know similar things have happened in the past so you may want to take someone on their word and take the chance or you may be more considered in who you're helping out.

An understandable and sensible post - admittedly not a great look for brand new posters to be asking but personally i legit only found this forum this morning and didn't know it existed.

Just a fan looking to go cheer on the team (accompanied by some eagles fans unfortunately but cant be helped).

 

If anyone can assist with a bar code I would be very grateful - have sent a few PM's to those above who had spares if anyone is on here at the moment.

Go dees!
