Demon Jack

Hard not to reminisce about the Grand Final after that. Dees go BANG BANG BANG through Spargo, Brown and Chandler!

BBB clunks one with his go-go gadget arms and goals

Save it for the season Charlie!

Pressure has been good early. Skills understandably rusty which is where North are pulling ahead. Umps questionable early.

Daisy's footy nous is as good as anyone in the business. Has a knack similar to Ricky Ponting in that she can she things unfold before they happen. Would love to see her on a coaching panel in the future.

Still on frequent replay

Shannon Byrnes also also hard done by with this criteria

I brought this up in another thread where this video was linked, but wow, is Fritsch a nightmare match up or what? He's too quick for a tall defender and too much of an aerial threat for a small/medium defender. One thing I noticed while watching his 'All The Goals' video is that very few of his goals seem to originate from free kicks. After a rough glance through the video, it looks like only three of his goals came from high contact/holding free kicks while another three came from 50 metre penalties. Bayley works hard for his goals, which is part of the reason he's so good to watch. Can't wait to see how the rest of his career unfolds.

Gee, that was good to watch! What a nightmare matchup he's proving to be. Too quick for a tall defender and too much of an aerial threat for a small/medium defender. Odd thing to notice, but very few of his goals seem to originate from free kicks. He works hard for his goals, which is part of the reason he's so good to watch.

Have a sneaking suspicion a player like Tom Sparrow might inherit the #2 from Jonesy. Looks to be a long term midfield prospect.

One quick scan of AFL Tables later, and I can confirm that Howes will be the first Blake to join the red and blue. Oddly, we've also never had a Jacob on our list before. Closest I could find is Graeme Jacobs who played in our '64 premiership side.

Here we go! Welcome Taj!

Pick coming up for the Demons at 66.

Also worth noting that our recruiting team was originally planning to select Georgiades with pick 32 before he was snapped up earlier than expected by Port. Safe to say our recruiters have an eye for finding 'it', that's for sure.

Our forward 50 Salem. You'd hate to be an opposition defender when this lad has the ball in his hand. Would love to see him get a bit closer to averaging a goal a game, but at least we already have other smalls like Pickett and ANB regularly hitting the scoreboard.

These are terrific! Triple M Perth coverage definitely gets the three votes!

Another bizarre coincidence - Years since we've won a premiership (prior to last night): 57 Years - Age of Norm Smith when he passed away: 57 Years Old - Points we scored in the final quarter last night: 57 Points

Solid win, bank it and then move onto next week. In all seriousness. OOOOOHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYY GODDDDDDDDDDDDDD! WE'REEEEEE THE PREMIERSSSSSS! 'ahem' Some notes from the game - Petracca. What more can you say? A modern day Demon superstar - For not the first time this year, our comeback in the third quarter can be attributed to one major change: Playing Jackson in the ruck. This kid was an absolute monster tonight and allowed Maxy to take one of the Dog's key defenders. - Fritsch had an absolute shocker of a second quarter but kickstarted our demolition job in the third. Just has that uncanny knack of finding space. An absolute nightmare matchup for opposition defenders. Most goals in a Grand Final since Darren Jarman in 1997! Unreal! - Can we take a moment to acknowledge Jake Bowey? This kid was playing in his SEVENTH AFL match and had 8 touches at 100% efficiency by quarter time. Was a big factor in our great start. Was playing a Weightman for a good portion of the game as well who had no influence whatsoever. - Bittersweet feeling for James Jordon who sadly (or in some aspects, fortunately) wasn't able to get on the ground tonight as the medical sub. Nethertheless, he still receives his premiership medal and played a key role in getting us here tonight. - May and Lever were arguably both down on their usual impact but both toiled hard. Neither Naughton or Schache were influential tonight so they played their roles just fine. - Salem oozes class with whatever he does. I know we tied him down for five years earlier in the season, but is there any chance we can extend that? More to come, maybe, dunno, feel like running around the block naked wearing only my Demon scarf before I do anything else.

We should know the winner by Tuesday at this rate

Loved watching him in the rooms after the match on the Fox Footy coverage. He's just like anyone of us, absolutely thrilled that we're where we are now after years of mediocrity. Here's my highlights contribution to this thread honouring the great man.

Many thanks for these@The Mighty Demons! Would it be too much of a stretch to do Max's goal from the boundary in the 3rd as well? By the way, loved your 'Anything Is Possible' vid! Max certainly proved that on Friday night!

No way in hell May misses the Grand Final

With no football to worry about until the big dance, I finally have time to do what I've always wanted: write the great American novel. Mine is about a futuristic amusement park where dinosaurs are brought to life through advanced cloning techniques. I call it 'Billy and the Cloneasaurus.'

Been fantastic since he's come back from suspension. Will fittingly play his 150th game for the Demons in the Grand Final as well.
