  1. This is my oldest sons year and he plays SMJFL; played against Ashcroft and Trainor in final in 2023. Guns. Keep an eye on Murphy Reid at Dragons; love to get him.
  2. Sestan, Melky and Hunter working hard at Gosches. Melky and Hunter look fine
  3. He did; just before BBB gathered and baulked someone, broke a tackle and ran into an open goal. was expecting pigs to fly past on my way home.
  4. OMG how about that Storm try to win!
  5. I spoke with a media footy person this week who said we were the mystery of 2024. They wouldn’t be surprised if we won the flag OR finished 10th and sacked Goody half way……
  6. I heard from a coach of a 18u Coates League team that Reid was miles ahead of everyone else this time last year, but felt he not developed as much due to not playing AFL this year. Others catching him. he thinks he’s an absolute gun in the Oliver, Selwood, Bont, Trac level of gun. love to get him.

  8. It was clear from Brisbane game we excepted the dual ruck failed; since then it’s been all single Max. Gawn was BOG last week, perhaps on one leg, let’s back him to go again, he’s a genuine great who regularly performs when needed. I’m happy to back Max in. if he gets injured that’s as [censored] as Trac or May getting injured. We can’t cover any of them regardless who the sub is.
  9. That is utterly disgraceful; I’m [censored] and mad and as a mad Demons fan really don’t care. This one likely to be “the straw that broke the camels back”.
  10. Don’t care where in top 4 we finish. win 5 straight and we’re all celebrating like crazy again. anyone, anywhere, anytime
  11. Happy to play Port in Port, no team with more must win pressure. We got this. then preliminary vs Blues at G!
  12. Went along tonight and cheered hard for the Swans; good for the Dees in 2023 seeing a challenging Dogs lose AND the extra bonus was seeing Sydney cruise pay the Dockers on the ladder. Back to the G tomorrow night, go Dees.
  13. Yes. I bought 4 tickets today in the tiny away members section. On Ticketmaster via AFL site; password is “awaymember23”. Club gave it to me when I called. Might be all gone now.
  14. Last night I watched Cats lose in Shenzhen China on Star Sports. Good coverage apart from Ch7 commentary. missing todays game as on a plane. Fingers crossed.
  15. I spoke with someone over the weekend who is well educated in AFL projects such as our challenges. They believed the new facility at AAMI cap park was looking good until fully quoted and Government then baulked due to cost. It was well above plan. same person a huge fan on Caulfield Racecourse for us.
  16. My son played with him this year. Definitely more forward than mid. Better players in the 10As this year, hoping he progresses over the next two seasons.
  17. Felt like an 8 goal win. I note in todays HSun the “expected score” measure from where shots are taken has us winning 102-49. More like a reflection of what happened. It is so foreign to watch us, the Demons, play each week and have very very little nerves that we’ll win anyway. Never thought this would occur in my lifetime. Trying to get my kids (7 to 15) appreciate this - but certain they won’t, don’t or can’t.
  18. Thanks DV fettersflyers not sure league
  19. I think this is perfect! gets us up and about. If we lose it’s a wake up call Round 1; if we win we roll the momentum on. mindset is our biggest risk in 2022, maybe alongside injuries. This helps remove complacency from day 1. go demons!
  20. I had some similar views having been at today’s game. I actually thought 6-8 could come into the seniors and play a role similar to how Petty has filled the third tall back. Déclase could do a job on the wing if we lost Langers for a bit. Very impressive today. Bowey a lot to like, many have said, great skills, goes when it’s his turn. He’d have played 10 games for the Kangas or Hawks this year. liked Joe Smiths game, marshalled the backline, lots of talk, attacked the contest, couple of hangers, good skills overall. actually thought big Bradkte did well on Buzza as the FB I thought Melky was very good; his skills are elite, hit great dangerous targets; young Ellerson appreciated him a few times. bedford showed some real signs on ball. Just needs a few more touches as his pace and dash really break a game open. Sparrow and AVB solid in the contest; Jetta played his role, wonderful leader on the ground. a lot to like!
  21. Ch7 said NO Weid or Brown!!! May back
  22. It appears our strategy with the draft is ALWAYS trade our "next years" 1st rounder - effectively getting the player asset one year early. i.e. Kozzie. Then next years we'll get a 1st rounder by trading out 2022's etc. So far the Clubs have delivered on this. I like it. At least they have a clear strategy.
  23. Pretty happy with this fixture. We get to test ourselves against the best (Lions and Power) while in good form with a healthy deep list. We get the SA clubs how we’d prefer, Crows in Adelaide, Port in Qld. We get to play in Tassie again. We know this ground well, play this game every year, and North are struggling. We both come off 4 day breaks; seems fair. We get the Pies amid their, and our, travel bonanza! And without De Goey! Then I read that Melbourne Storm has just played 7 games in 7 different venues across 4 states while fully relocating to Qld - no complaints and once again they ease back into the top 4 in dominant form. Guess where the Storm are staying in Qld? Maybe Goody can buy Bellamy a few lattes..... And we have Burgess - have no doubt the players will get confidence from that, call it our X Factor.

  24. I’m in the USA, they cancelled the #1 food trade show this week with many of us visiting from all over the globe; yet have kept Disneyland open which is across the road with tourists from all over the world. they have declared a state of emergency in LA, enabling a bunch of health government things be done. and nba teams have been asked to plan for playing games with empty stadiums! the virus is coming for all communities, stay well everyone.
