Biggest. [censored]. Ever.

Watching Before the Bounce and I have never seen a cockier, more arrogant, biased host of a television program ever.

Plus, he's ugly.

End rant.

EDIT: Wrong board. Also, useless topic.

I quite like the Chief, and Before The Bounce is right up there with one of the best footy shows on all the stations.

Sorry Jerry, but prior to now I always thought your posts exhibited sound judgement.

Did he say or do anything in particular in tonight's show?

Or do you just think that in general?

Spud Frawley posed the question of whether a woman will ever play in the AFL to the Chief. And after about a minute of stupid circular banter, Frawley had had enough and said that it was Jeff Kennett who brought it up. Finally, Dunstall sheepishly admitted that it was indeed the Hawks president that started it all.

But just in general, he's a jerk. He's got a massive ego and no time for anyone he thinks is below him, which - due to the former - includes just about everyone.

I quite like the Chief, and Before The Bounce is right up there with one of the best footy shows on all the stations.

I like before the bounce to, especially Jerrard Waitely, who's on tonight. But I can't stand Jason Dunstall's massive ego and total inability to form an articulate, unbiased opinion on anything.

Yes, he's a bit of a tool... arrogant, takes a lot of things WAY to seriously...

But he's the best FF I ever saw play the game, and has a WORLD of respect for his on-field exploits... which in turn means he gets away with whatever he wants.

"A" grade tool.

I think its hilarious when he throws fried rice at that c&%t Quartermain and for that reason alone I'm happy he is still around

TOTALLY.

There are antics of former players that I applaud at times. Call me biased, but I love it when Newman gets carried away on the footy show with Hutchy. I think, while it's trashy, the footy show remembers (largely due to Newman) what perspective is all about. Footy has always been a recreation. It's become quite a lucrative one, and there are elements of seriousness involved since it is such a large entity (employment, careers, major injury) but the fact remains, for the vast majority, we get into it as a means of enjoyment. In the middle part of our lives we take it seriously, but it is still, in it's inception, fun.

Newman has made millions from footy, and has maintained the fun aspect... inspired largely by Teddy Whitten, by all accounts. There is a time for seriousness, but it's people like Quarterbrain, McChins and Hutchy, who try to manufacture meaning in footy where there is none, in order to enhance drama, and make themselves seem more necessary.

Lyon played, as did Newman... Those guys know all about the fun aspect, and know when to swear and get serious. When Hutchy comes on and tries to drum up some false rumour he got off some Tiger's person, and Newman tries to highlight how ugly and bald he is... it really serves as a reminder that Hutchy is a parasite, and should count himself lucky that he's even in the media.

The players will ALWAYS be more important than him, even when they're embarrassing old men who've matured disgracefully.

The Chief is a very funny man and a great character, I have no problems whatsoever with the way he goes about things. Always thought he bounces off Spud well also, great chemistry there, other people on the panel not so much. Especially the little dorky fella with glasses and a lisp, surely they could have found someone better?

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
