Winners at last

A confession. I was at the match … well, until 10 minutes into the final quarter. My ladyfriend (also a Demon) wanted to leave at 3/4 time. I said let’s wait a bit longer. When Daniher got that pathetic free and goaled, we left. We waited at a bus stop in Punt Road. There was a group of young girls there too, 2 of whom were Demons supporters. We checked the scores … Demons’ goal … then another, and another. Only 5 points down. Surely not!!! Then Demons ahead by 1 point … FMD!!! From the bus stop we heard the siren. OMG!! What, some talk of a mark on the siren!! No ... game over, Demons won !!! Unbelievable ….

For some reason, when I read that post the name Oxley sprung to mind ....

What a charming individual. I suspect his hobbies include road raging. "Perenially rebuilding" ? His memory lapses obviously include 2021.

He looked like he 'belonged' at AFL level. Certainly not overawed. Good debut.

Poor comment NC. While I don't agree with every comment she posts, she is passionate and very loyal to the Club. She is not deranged !!

I was at the match. Surely the Demons should have a team rule not to handball to Max during a handball chain! Three times it was done, and all three times it led to a turnover. Not blaming Max, but let's face it, he's pretty slow.

Watched the first qtr of Puddy Tatts v Norf. Norf are so bad ... like watching the U16s playing the U14s. I can't imagine anyone other than Jee-long supporters not switching off/turning over. I'm watching a station with oldies videos hits ... even watching The Sweet/Teenage Rampage is better viewing. And that's setting the bar pretty low. Actually I think i'll go for a walk.

Swans clearly had a death wish ... could/should have won that match.

Sorry to stray from the preferred topic of conversation on this thread ... Spurs/Ange. I think Melksham will get the gig as sub.

Hey, where are you going to watch the match? I'm going to the Sporting Globe Richmond. Big screen, usually a few Demons there. There's also an 'after party' with live music, presumably a bloke singing/guitar/backing tracks? I'll only stay for that if the Demons win ... could be as much fun as a barrel full of monkeys.

Ungrateful lot.

All will be revealed in the fullness of time.

Hey peanut ... Demons were never going to finish top 2, so it's better that the teams pushing for 4th place lose. Come back to me when you've thought about it ... hahaha

lol !!!

McGrath seems like a nice guy.

Come on Port !!!!

I hate the filth.

BT (big t@#d) is so insightful. He just said something along the lines of "both sides will be desparate to win". Brilliant!!

Swans kicking for goal = death wish

Why haven't the commentators mentioned that Blicavs was a champion junior steeplechaser?

Sling tackle on Francis. Nothing to see here???

A pessimist is an optimist in full possession of the facts.

Best result is the teams pushing for 4th place losing, namely Essendon, Bulldogs + Saints. Agree with other posters who suggested finishing fourth and playing the filth in the first week of the finals is preferable to finishing 2nd or 3rd and playing an away final v Brisbane or Port.
