How’s it go down? tom maggot “How are you feeling about the demons season?” CP5: “It wasn’t that great” TM “so you’re not happy with it” CP5 ‘no” TM “how is it with goody” CP5 “he’s a great bloke” TM “OK, So do miss the chance to win a flag this year” CP5 “of course, its why we are here” TM “what do you reckon of those teams on it?” CP5 “wish it was us” turns into I this [censored] story……..

If it was pick 16-18 then… maybe pick 6 should be better than Houston in this draft. go to the draft, offer a second rounder at best. nga and the f/s pickups later.

Question to the 3 panellists: who are our unsung heroes? Previously it was nibbler, but not the HHF role is well known and often trotted out by the media. Who are the unsung heroes who have carried us this year, and who could step into the sunshine with a breakout 2025?

I want to give as big shout out to Chandler. From where i was sitting he worked hard sally night doing heaps of unrewarded things.

I’ll be there to support the team. Go Dees!

I tipped the home teams except for the saints. No idea if it will play out that way, most tops turvy season i can remember..

Thanks @WalkingCivilWar, champion effort as usual. Notes: Ben Brown in ‘trainers blues’ rather than team reds? I understand his knee must be problematic, but is he likely to be around the club in a different capacity next year? he seems like a ripping bloke, and we could do worse. Ollie Sestan’s bum looks too close to the ground. Great to see CP5 not getting too excited.

Too early to know. Not brought in for immediate impact, so suspect has time to do a preseason and show that he can deliver what he showed at WAFL. A big lad that might yet prove many here wrong….

Done, all worthy.

I think Goody needs to change his assistants - time to freshen up the team to take us back to the top…

Port just put down a massive marker - now they will come at us hard to keep their finals run in good shape. Lots to cover off if we are going to be competitive, but we must have our pressure rating over 190 average. Going to be a tough night at the G.

Schache to play backie and replace Maysie

Looking for this to be a ‘bounce’ year.. Hit the draft and get what we can. 1. Max talks about ‘pride in the jumper’ - do you think this is enough to motivate the boys to win the next 3? 2. Assistant coaches - are there the problem? Reading between the lines of Goody’s presser, it seems that the coaching setup is not working. Is it time for mcQualter to walk the plank?

The kid is barely in the door. Of course he would get a full off season to see where he sits. This is just getting used to your team mates ands settling in time. He is not a unicorn, he is a young tall that cost the club very little. Give him space and see what happens,,,,

There is a real lack of second efforts on the chasing. Break the first tackle and stroll away by the dogs

Too easy Purple. How about creating some content of value? What atrocious drivel. So we get kicked when we are the home and the away team. How many gws people turned up last week? Under 250, id reckon. There is your true story, the expansion teams are an absolute FAIL.

Im thinking, thinking…

Chin vote is in!

What I liked: the first quarter the comeback effort we are still in it with the future entirely in our hands What I disliked 2.5 quarters of poor 2 way running and efforts the weather (it was Arctic there!) 0-8 centre clearances the umpiring Losing We have lost out on playing finals by 0.5% one year not long ago. results are all over the place, and we are still in it. We are not our old ruthless selves and cant string 4 quarters together. What do we need to do to turn this ship around? Can we do it this year or will we simply not be good enough?

Ok, 4 quarters of pressure football from the full squad. Get the midfield to function so we dont lose the centre bounce 8 times in a row. DONT play kids, try and win. We are not out of it yet.

No excuses, I was there. I was wearing 5 layers (5!) and it was still flipping cold. At 4 pm it was [censored] down. I don’t begrudge anyone who did not show up, it was god awful out there. [censored] scheduling by the AFL - late July night at MCG between us and an interstate team ( who had about 30 people in their cheer squad) - 16 k, well done.

Im going. Its make or break, the boys need to hear my cheer. Go Dees!

Where there’s smoke, there’s some half wit with a match. I reckon its all BS, but I know nuffink!

Fullarton was not recruited as a ruckman, but as a forward who could pinch hit in the ruck. He hasn’t established himself this year, but lets see what another off season could offer.

We can’t rewrite history. Jacko was the ace in the hole for us (until he needed to go home to Mummy to get some biddy). Grundy was a good get, but isnt a second ruck. Great rucks are rare, take ages to develop and are not often available for trade. Who would want to come to the Demons with Max being the main man? Maybe the dees will be attractive as max gets older (more opportunities ), but getting a true 2nd ruck that is ready to go is not easy. The recent recruiting of ‘forwards that can pinch hit” in the ruck are not ruckman, so lets not murder them because they dont fit the role. I can see in a couple of years bth Turner and Petty playing back, Luker, JvR and maybe Jeffo forward, and White or Verrell in the ruck. But that is 1 or 2 years away at least.
