Its a funny thing football.

The way the football cookie has crumbled Tom Scully would be on his way to Richmond if Jordan McMahon had of missed that goal a few weeks ago and we would only have pick 2, pick 20, pick 36, pick 52 and preseason pick 2. That is significantly short of picks 1, 2, 19, 35, 51 and PS 1.

I know we still have one round to go but if it was Richmond in 16th place right now I can assure you that they would find a way of losing against West Coast in Perth this weekend, delivering them Tom Scully.

Thank You, Thank You Jordan McMahon.

You may be a dud player, and a poor shot at goal, but you came good when it counted, you did the best thing for the mighty Dees and for that I will forever be grateful. If Melbourne win a Premiership with Scully and Trengrove I propose life membership to the MFC. Jordan your heart beats true for the red and blue. Thank You.

North Did, & i bet you didn't pick that.

Robbo is going to kick goals on sunday, i just know it.

It's a long shot i know, but i am not celebrating Draft picks till its all over. No. 1 aside, coz thats locked.

19-2. ;)

WYL, relax champ...the Saints will want to ramp up their performance going into the finals. It could well be all over at quarter time.

I could agree..they are the Implosion / immolation experts. But even they have far too much to play for. Top spot isnt the thing..they need momentum and Lyon will be pulling all stops out to get the Sainters firing again, Its highly likley we will play them into form. I cansee our lads having a crack though. ....just falling short by a bit.or a bit more than a bit..ll

We realy dont have the cattle..or rather the right herd to pull off a win.....but we can try to make a game of it :)

I was thinking more over the last 114 years actually! I don't trust that club one bit, nor do they!!! :lol:

I propose a toast.

To McMahon!!!

Hear, hear!

BTW can people get over the fact that we have the slighest, remotest possibility of beating the Saints? Big woop, we've got Scully, and it's about 1 in a thousand for us to win anyway. THere is a reason they won an odd 19 in a row earlier in the year, you know.

Nah we have been through 3 years of Sheer Hell. Picks 1 & 2 in this last Draft is the only christmas present that will make me smile!

Pick 1 is Fantastic. 1 & 2 is just Totally Sublime!! :rolleyes:

McMahon has done a lot more for the MFC than he has done or will ever do for the RFC.
I would have to agree with that statement. Have a couple of Tiger mates that will be reminded of this for a very long time indeed. Just need to get past the saints first. ;)

Oh yeah, once this week is over we should send young Jordie a couple of slabs from "Demonlanders"!! :lol:

There's a fair chance that if we had of beaten Richmond we would have lost to Freo.

True - but can you imagine what we would have had to do to lose that one? It would have been beyond farcical.

haha come on, seriously stop making me laugh, my tummy hurts.

i would bet my *two veg* that we will not win on sunday

Jordie McMahon deserves to be stuffed & mounted on a pedestal & placed somewhere @ the richmond end of the MCG. :D

The Richmond folk can admire him there for generations as we continue to build a new Dynasty of the DEE.

Posted (edited)
My richmond mate thinks McMuffin (as he calls him) cost the toge's Sculley. Whether he did or not I think its very funny.

He's right. Had Melbourne won that game it would be currently: -

Melbourne 20

Richmond 18

..therfore....

Richmond pick 1

Melbourne pick 2

Although that Freo game result may have been different....and if that was the case it would be: -

Richmond 18

Melbourne 16

..therfore...

Melbourne Pick 1 (PP) & Pick 2

Richmond pick 3

For the record it's: -

Richmond 22

Melbourne 16

But yes, it is amusing listening to Tiger supporters....

I don't see any humour in somebody beating us but I do find it ball bursting hilarious that the only thing that he could put on his very brief highlight reel was to cost his side the best kid in the land. Ahhh, Richmond. You do make me laugh.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
