Jaded No More

Because we don't have the same fire power as Carlton, who have not one but two Coleman medallists. I mean of course we can win a shootout, but it's not a game style that we are comfortable with, and it greatly reduces our chances of winning. We need this to be a contested slog. If we can't have the game on our terms, it's going to be very hard to win. Offensively they are a very very good side.

Kosi has missed two games and is playing more midfield, but I take your point. We definitely can’t win a shootout

Those were the days I wonder where Yze Magic is these days, he was the OG 💩 stirrer of Demonland

Good to see that he is universally hated. He really is an awful umpire, one of the absolute worse in terms of consistency, or lack thereof. I will not bet on who wins tonight, but I will bet my house on Carlton winning the free kick count comprehensively.

I too am not confident. I was much more confident last week, or it could have just been blind hate leading to delusion. Carlton’s midfield worries me far more than Geelong’s entire team does. If they get enough clean ball inside 50 from stoppage, then unfortunately even our best-in-league backline won’t be able to stop them scoring. 5 day break on top of them getting some quality players back, and I’m more nervous than a fart in a perfume shop.

I think he was being sarcastic 🙃

Also coming off a very hot game which they disappointingly lost at the death. They will be feeling the pressure, whereas we will be feeling confident after our win against Geelong. This is another genuine 50/50 contest. Carlton have had the better of us the last two times we met, especially in and around the ball. I hope our mids rise to the occasion and have a really strong game against Carlton's formidable midfield, as there is no doubt that winning contest is their game plan.

Yes she absolutely does, and all the time she gives back to the club and Demonland is done free of charge and in her spare time. This is up there with the complaint we had about the podcast. Just get on with your life if you don't like the FREE content you are being provided. Also @WalkingCivilWar has said many many times before that reporting on the ins and outs of training and specifics is not her forte, and that she is there to provide some light hearted commentary and any inside intel she may get from the players. Last week she told us Bowser will play against Carlton, which was a scoop, and turned out to be spot on. Why people are now complaining about the content of her training reports, is beyond me. I love a detailed training report as much as the next person, but equally I love the insights and funny anecdotes that we get as well. There is room for both.

Imagine the nerve of people complaining about someone providing them with free info from training that they took time out of their own lives to do. This is not @WalkingCivilWar job, she’s doing it for fun and to give something back to Demonland. If you don’t like the content of the thread, don’t read it. I swear Demonland has become a collective for complaining.

The sooner Geelong just [censored] OFF and bottom out, the better.

I wouldn’t drop Woey he’s been very good. I would make Billings sub and bring Bowey in. Allowing us to push Rivers further into the middle or perhaps even give Woey some time at half forward. Carlton has a very strong forwardline like Geelong, but unlike Geelong their midfield is also exceptional and very good at winning the contest. If Rivers can push further up the ground in ball ups, it might allow us to win more contested ball and propel more attack from half back, which is our new “method”.

So given your intel, do you believe Petty is still on the way out or not?

No it doesn’t. If the Crows didn’t get the answer they were hoping for, then it sounds like Petty’s manager called to say Petty is no longer interested in going to Adelaide.

Us? Probably Geelong Swans Who cares GWS Tigers for the lols Who cares 2.0 Hopefully Eagles but most likely Pies Crom

Obviously Chris Scott doesn’t vote for those 🙄😂

More consistency? He’s more consistent than most key position forwards and a lot more consistent than any other medium forward. He went something like 40 games kicking at least one goal. He also kicked 6 in a grand final. I don’t know why he is so underrated. [censored] all over every other forward his size in the league.

Tell me you’re a sook and a bad loser without telling me you’re a sook and a bad loser 🙄

I need a titanic version. Also the Gawn goal.

Most Pies fans don’t know who their mother is, so it’s fine.

As opposed to Essendon’s amazing success over the last 20 years? 😂

You’re telling me that their list isn’t better than Essendon’s?

Jesus you’d be losing it if you barracked for the Dogs. Their list is way way too good to be this bad at football.

Chris Scott is one of the main reasons that I hate Geelong with the fire of a thousand suns. He is the single most arrogant, self righteous, ignorant piece of trash in the AFL. What a sore loser.

Bowey is an automatic in if fit. Also would be keen to play Hunter ahead of Billings.

Josh Jenkins has done it again. Well done Josh.
