Deemolition2021

It IS a grand old flag! So proud … thought it possible the way we hung in there, but that final quarter was epic! Could have been 10.2 rather than 4.8 … but I am NOT complaining!

Agree with others … we are a tad more watchable today. Looking forward to the second half … c’mon Dees!

So much to like … and then some to not like so much. Has our DNA become we play for 3/4?? Loved that we had 7 years of not losing to the poos and wees …

Casey forward line a dress rehearsal for ANZAC Eve? Fritta and Roo recalled, Jeffo called up? Not sure I get McVee coming back through Casey, but Tholstrup straight in.

First game wasn’t ’so bad’, but since Round 1 … 🤮

Hard to say, as wasn’t at the game (Queensland based), but Trac’s body language looked off all day, and seemed more so as the day went on? Worried for next weekend … if we serve up similar to today, the Cats are a fair chance to break their 186 point winning margin.

Wowsers … if we serve that effort up down the highway next week, I reckon the 186 point losing margin horror might be repeated …

11 point turnaround - Fritta drops the mark, manages a rushed behind … Suns go the length to kick a goal on the siren 🤦‍♂️🤮

After the opportunity to make a statement after last week’s effort, we look … completely disinterested?

Hmmm … floodgates opening now, 4 in a row to the Suns.

Yep, I resemble that comment! If the Dogs beat the Bloods by 39, then us by 51 the next week, and the Power from Port beat the Swans by 112 and then play us …

Yep - feeling the same. Loved having a 3 year period where the team I love were pretty much always in the game …

We showed really character at the start of the year, given the goings on in the off season. Not sure when it started to turn, but tonight really showed the gap between a contender and a ‘Pick 6 in the draft’ team …

That hurt …

Always enjoy the Demonland match reports, but this one goes to the top of the pile. and who says we don’t play wet weather footy??!! ❤️💙

And amidst all this joy … when did we become Freo’s bunnies? Getting better at it each year it seems … Dogga must be loving it.

A top 3, possibly top 2, spot in the offing. With the race for the Top 8 being so tight this year, I am worried our performances against the 2 WA clubs in the last 3 weeks are a portent to a dreaded 9th place finish - maybe even at best? C’mon Dees … prove we are better than this! ❤️💙❤️💙

Cannot decide which is worse … losing on a Thursday night and spoiling the weekend, or losing on a Sunday night and spoiling the week? Was always a danger game I guess, but I’m in a bit of disbelief as to just how well we were beaten.

Clarry and Salo another centre clearance …

And … Clarry doing Clarry things!

Still on Fox … no plug pulled?

Appears we play our best football in odd numbered periods … good thing there are 7 of them today?

Yes, JVR kicked one in the first.

That delivery to Roo is a little betterer …

Schache attack! Dees 12.8.80 Tigers 12.6.78
