POSTGAME: QF vs Brisbane
We are a very, very good football team, built for finals! But you all know the drill, one week at a time! ……

GAMEDAY: QF vs Brisbane
Goody has been saying since Round 1, that our aim is to build a brand of football that stands up to the rigours of finals. Almost every player interviewed since our win over the Cats, has said that the new season starts now. We’ve been single minded on this all year, and the players will be fully primed for this game. We won’t drop the ball now! I’d expect it to be a tough ‘finals type’ game, but I’m confident that we’ll win going away. Dees by 30 to 40 points.

RETURN TO NEVERLAND by Whispering Jack
Thanks WJ. Love to reminisce about our Golden Era. Just pondering about which of our current players plays most like the great Ronald Dale back in the day. It's clearly between Tracc and Clarry IMO, but I lean towards Clarry. What do others think?

Jack Gunston
A fit Gunston is a quality player / team player and seems to be a very good leader. He would be an excellent addition to our list, so long as it doesn't compromise our tight salary cap position, either now or for the 2 or 3 year contract that he would be seeking (presumably we would require some 'performance' clauses in there to safeguard our side of the deal). Clearly our Club is well placed to make a call on all this.

The 2021 All-Australian Team
What a great night of individual awards for our beloved Dees ….. but I’m sure they all know full well, that there are bigger fish to fry.

Outstanding youngster. Well done ‘Dogga’!

Coaches Award 2021
Highly deserved for an outstanding season. The most prestigious individual award of all IMO.

TEAMS: QF vs Brisbane
Beg to differ LO. Smith frees up Lever to do what he does best. Fingers crossed that with Lever intercepting, the ball doesn't get down to Cameron to do too much damage.

TEAMS: QF vs Brisbane
That's how I saw it. Following on from an outstanding win, why would we change the lineup?

Three years makes a difference
Selfless "team' football!

Hassa Mann to be interviewed on Nine news tonight
Couldn't agree more bingers. I had the pleasure of working with Hassa for around 6 months in the early 1970's. A gentleman of the highest order, but with the most fierce handshake I've ever experienced.

Petracca post match interview
Outstanding humility from Tracc. ....... and if he can shed tears on National TV, then I don't feel at all uncomfortable about blubbering in the privacy of our lounge room.

2021 ABC Footballer of the Year - Clayton Oliver
Well done Clarry! Only a few more weeks of your 'never say die' attitude, and you can give your bashed-up body a well earned rest. More personal accolades to come, no doubt ...... but we all know that's not what you strive for!

POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Geelong
That was my best football moment since the last home & away game, Western Oval, 1987.

POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Geelong
I’ll finish my medicinal cognac now, and hope my voice has returned by the morning.

POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Geelong
Only one word for now: EPIC!
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 23 vs Geelong
Don't stress too much Jontee! Methinks Goody will keep a few tricks up his sleeve for the next time we meet with them. No need to play our full hand tonight.

GAMEDAY: Rd 23 vs Geelong
I’m quietly confident about tonight. We are slowly getting back to our best, and our best is better than anyone else has shown this season. Just NO injuries please!

Interstate memberships
I live in Canberra, and I'm a long-term Redlegs Member. I've always been more than happy to 'donate' my annual membership subs to the Club which means so much to me. Sadly, with the way things are looking in 2021, I still won't be able to attend the 'big dance' (assuming we make it). Of course, there are many thousands of Demon faithful who share this misfortune. #13 will be nice compensation though!

What would you do for the club if we won the flag?
Bawl my eyes out for hours, rehydrate, and then go again!

What would you do for the club if we won the flag?
Impossible to contemplate at the moment, and I won’t be in a position to contemplate when it happens!
