Only saw parts of the game, but I thought we turned that corner, a bit at least against the bummers. In terms of endeavour persistence and just plain head down hard at it. I grant you we were poor delivering into the forwards which allowed them to clear it and apply too much pressure on Frost and OMac So I did get some encouragement from that game but did not expect such a better result. If we can pressure the saints and stop the ball coming back so quick , another step back to 2018 form. Need Petracca Viney Melky and Hibberd to step up one more notch Go Dees

Joeboy.. a bit hash on some enjoy the night !!!!

sorry a little bit TOO excited

good to get a win, now start then SPANK the sainters next week then same as last year GO DEESme

Perhaps but he gets to the ball and usually passes to someone else in a better position. or at least that"s my opinion or what I see. We all see things from a different perspective.

I can only hope that Spargo or Jeffy get picked this week need a bit of speed Go Dees

Report post #49 Posted 1 hour ago We turned it around last season when we started hitting targets moving forward instead of Bombing aimlessly Yes I agree with both of these points hate to see it bombed long or to a contest where we don't have the numbers resulting in an easy mark to a defender or an easy out for the opposition, pissses me off Such a waste of effort not to give it to one of ours. But its easy to talk from my side of the TV. Go Dees

Love this thread, no pithy replies or suggestions. Some of you really watch and see more than I do. Makes me feel better about last week. Still think we will come up short on Saturday but.... So we were at least one man short Viney, with Gawn just out of hospital, and Oliver and Jones had down games. and Hinkley and Port had worked on us for a few weeks to expose our faults. and I know we did not run the game out. Well can we pick fit fellas this week and play 22 on 22. maybe it wont be a complete disaster. (as I felt last Sat night) Again I really like reading this thread and some others Footys BACK !! Go Dees

Philistines, boors, oafs, ignoramuses, louts, yahoos, hoons, vulgarians, plebeians, atheists, sceptics, heathens, beasts, brutes, peasants fail to understand these deep issues. Is this a description of Collingwoood, Carlton and Esssendon supporters ?

Damn I missed the 1000th page, what was it like ! any memorable quotes, I cannot go back and read it. You never go back ! and if I did that would mean taking this thread far too seriously, I enjoy it as it is Cheers and here's to the next millenium

Love this thread, it’s a great antidote to some BS that I have been subjected to in another life. And it’s much more sensible than some of the draft threads or football threafs go dees and let’s go bananas !

Definite ly I think on this one we were Roo ted Mr Leg was right, in the end Bring on 2019

Pity to see him go he was an absolute gem. And will be at Freo. But sometimes here he played as if his heart was not totally in the game. good luck Jesse probably a great move for player and club

Are you talking about Bette Midler Live album and her man Ernie?

I think you lot have lost the plot ptobably due to the demons getting into the final 4 places, thumped yes but 14 other clubs were jealous what a change from other years of misery for months. Now your deluded for only a couple of weeks and then back to reasonable comment for 2019 ??

if its not this week it will very definitely be the following week like the chicken at Christmas we are stuffed, well and truely, the crowd and the umpires will see to that ! what the hell Go Demons !!

By chance came across some old photos this morning. In the car park boot open enjoying the moment pre 88 GF, thinking back we thought we had made it. In reality we were nowhere near it. we thought making the GF was it. That attidude meant we were going to get thumped hard, as we were ! This time ( hope I am not in front of myself) no relaxation until the fat lady is singing OUR song late in the last ! Go DEMONS !!

Going to Perth to play 2 games in 6 weeks (?) and both knockout both needing to win ( not sure we need the percentage this time ) Well that will well and truely stuff ya ! No point coming back and saying we played well but..... Come on DEMONS !!

Blimey. There are a lot of “old people” around ! I look in the mirror as a 20 year old and stare back as the 69 year old fart I really am, Come on Demons No time like the present to make history ! Do not let this chance slip go Hard !

Gday Mal, isn't it a great time of the year Sept, Go Demons call you later Pity you cannot get to Perth, at least we are still here to see it

Haven't read this for a while But I thought it was QUEENSland that was some sort of parallel universe inhabited by perverts and squashable frogs Where those bendy banana things come from.

none of us will be around if it takes 54 years between drinks !

Bananas for breakfast No other way but we don’t need to be shy tonight the Dees have done us proud over last few weeks. We deserve to be there and are a threat for the flag if we get there Carna Demons

Had a funny dream last night all mixed up As usual about the Promised land not enough Wise men and no virgins, enjoy tonight and next 3 games as well good luck to us all. Loud and proud tonight give em hell !! Go Dees !!

Forgive me if I am wrong and on the wrong thread. But. Didn’t we have a double chance in play before the Geelong match at KP. And lost it just. So doesn’t that mean we have been playing finals and winning since that game. Another win should be easy peasey, Go Dees!!
