I notice poor Dane Swan was the victim of an unprovoked attack at a nightclub on Saturday night.

Could any Demonlanders refresh my memory about another incident involving Dane and street violence about 4 years ago?

    For what purpose?

    He may have actually been the victim of assault on this occassion. AFL footballers are often targetted by LCD types thinking it gets them a higher step in life. :wacko:

    From all reports Swan is very football focussed and the excesses of his youth have been curbed by maturity.

    As a player he is an A grade gun. His games against Port and St Kilda were outstanding.

    Dont like the tatts though. :rolleyes:

    what time was he the 'victim' of this attack? Thought most clubs like the players home before incidents like these happen.

    What's your gripe with tatts RR?

    Ugly, unnecessary and a lifelong scar in the form of blotchy blue skin mark of a dumb decision made in earlier years. B)

    I think 'modern ink' is a little different to the old knock up jobs that faded very badly. I admit that the skin does get wrinkly and they do look ordinary over time. I think getting a whole arm done over a summer is rediculous. Patching together work goes ok though!

    I don't often agree with you RR but on this subject I do concur. I'm 29 so I suppose I'm in age group of 'Modern Ink' but if you ask anyone with tatts 10 years after they get them 90% regret them. The only way I would get is my childrens names (if I had them) or a tribute to a family member.

    What number 29 off the wall is no good ?? What about a tiger coming through the grass ?? LOL :)

    • 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.
