Heard that Nathan Ablett joined GC17? can anyone confirm this?

Could MFC convince him to go in the PSD? or is this a done deal?

1) Correct

2) Yes

3) Shirley you can`t be serious

4) Yes

 

He wants instant success obviously? ie quitting Geelong after premiership. why would he want us?


Hands up who remembers that Nathan Ablett is actually no good?

You beat me to it.

I wouldn't want him if he bled red and blue for the club and was a Ryan O'Keefe type player.

Absolutely the last bloke I would want on our list. We presumably have a group of young guys who are hungry for success. We don't need a bloke with an application problem who is likely to find it all too hard again in 2 years.

Have to ask. Are you hinting at Shirley is a done deal ?

Or am I barking up the wrong tree...

Oh but, but, but he's an ex-player...does this mean he doesn't want to come and play with us? Oh I can't handle this rejection, why do none of the bestest players in the league want to play with us?

Wrong tree.... it's a quote from the movie Airplane.

FLYING HIGH!

Ted Striker: My orders came through. My squadron ships out tomorrow. We're bombing the storage depots at Daiquiri at 1800 hours. We're coming in from the north, below their radar.

Elaine Dickinson: When will you be back?

Ted Striker: I can't tell you that. It's classified.

No. Just....

No.

Completely disagree, showed a whole lot more potential than Tom Hawkins ever did. He is a lot better of a forward than people give him credit for and he left the game before Gary Ablett Jnr really established himself, had Nathan stayed, who knows what he would be now? Great pick up for the Coast, bad news for the doubters.

  • 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.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
