    Voted - get on board people.

    I can't believe they let Jackson's opinion in Adelaide turn into a story in Melbourne. Typical of the appalling standard of sports journalism in this city. Fat lazy pricks incapable of finding a real story of their own.

    Dudley Moore's advertising exec character in the movie Crazy People had been committed to a mental institution as his superiors felt he was starting to lose the plot

    During his internment he was looking for inspiration for a new style of honest adds (which was why he got locked up in the first place), so he thought he'd try recruiting the crazy people to help him write them

    The crazy residents are asked by Darryl Hannah's character "Who wants to be an add man?" all the crazies put their hands up

    "that doesn't prove anything!" Dudley's character says and then asks them the question "Who wants to be a fire truck?" "Me! Me! Oh Pick Me!!!" comes the frenzied reply

    I simply think the HeraldSun has uncovered allot of people who will simply put their hand up for anything, or they secretly wish to be fire trucks

    If the poll was, do you think North should merge with, insert any of 8-10 clubs here, it'd probably still be over 50%

    You can bet certain clubs will want a team to fold or merge in preference to relocating to a certain southern Isle !!

    It seems that way and I am trying real hard to take no notice of it. Some of the polls in that paper are just ridiculous.

    Lets be take this poll for what it is absolute rubbish. I know if there was a poll Should Collingwood and Essendon merge, or any other teams apart from Melbourne in a poll for mergers i would vote yes.

    granted... but the problem for us is whomever are behind this latest barrage of DEE / ROO bashing will take susch a poll..bogus or otherwise and add it to his sling of dubious reasons as to why it ought to be put up for serious discussion.

    We know its rubbish..some may see it otherwise

    Exactly. If there was a poll for Essendon and Collingwood to merge, all 14 other club supporters would vote for yes.

    *YAWN*

    Herald Sun poll???

    What a load of nonsensical, inflammatory crap! They'll do anything to try and sell a paper... pfffft! :angry:

    I reckon you'll get the same - if not worse - skewed results if you had placed a poll of "Should Collingwood merge with Port Power". Don't you think all other 14 club supporters would be voting "YES"?

    It would easily end up 80% to %20%.

    I would not complain if Eddiewood folded :D

    Voted. But what a bunch of horse sh*t it all is! We're the third oldest football club in the world, we ain't going nowhere!

    Isn't Wayne Jackson on the board at the Crows?

    Its like one of our board members suggesting the Crows and the Power merge. Given the crowds they have had this season that might be a good idea.

    We are the oldest club to still be playing at the highest level of competition in our sport. The others have dropped down grades, leagues, competitions... They no longer represent the competition they started in.

    It's worth noting.

    Thanks Deanox, you're an education.

    Voted twice more just to prove you right.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
