    And bb...... further to the above...... I believe  @Redleg  has been overindulging in the delights of Redtube.

    Can you actually “overindulge “?

    We need to take the AFL to task for fixturing us in WA and 6 days later in Adelaide and then 5 days after Anzac day playing again all within first 7 rounds. Pretty rough. I didn’t mention Geelong again, like every other year, either.

    Go back and read BBO’s earlier posts and you will work it out very easily. The responses give it away.

    Awww, I’ve still got your back and always will. 🥰

    Anyways, what’s wrong with being a nut-job? Or is it the combination of nut-job and redhead? Asking for a redheaded nut-job of a friend.

    Fremantle also travelled to Adelaide twice 2 weeks (also off a 6 day break). We should not be using this an excuse for losing to Essendon.

    Just for the record, Fremantle spent the week in Adelaide but I agree travel isn't an excuse.  The club chose to catch the red eye back from Perth, apparently at the players' request.  Maybe next time they rethink that.

    Goody’s comments suggest they will rethink it, if it happens again.

    I'm surprised the sports science staff thought it was a good idea to catch the red eye knowing there was a flight/game to Adelaide a few days later.  Sometimes they and coaches should do what is best for the club rather than the players. 

    While acknowledging players want to get home to families etc I doubt half a day makes a lot of difference in most cases.

    Its the Footy season... All decisions and focus ought to be about the game/team.

    Melb Perth Melb Ade Melb !!

    Not a lot of genius happening there.

    Should  not even be a consideration.

    We're not there yet when we can't think like a 100% professional outfit.

    At first I thought getting back here was the only way to go but Binman made a good case for this idea on the pod last night. It's the 1%ers

    Common sense I would have thought.

    At the risk of a pile on I don't listen to the game related podcasts.

    With 6 days it probably was. 

    Nothing wrong with that, we choose what we like for our personal enjoyment.

    Life is full of entrees so don't fill up on bread! 🙂

    Exactly, it's the 1%ers.  This is something that led to our success in 2021 - I'm listening to a podcast interview with Clayton Oliver back in Dec 2021 right now while working.  Clarry said "I didn't change much, my three big rocks after discussing with Goodwin was to train well, sleep well and eat well.  That's all I've focused on this year"

    So the would-be thief would have to pop into Cashies (Cash Converters) to buy a cordless angle grinder that he probs stole the previous day and sold to Cashies. Doesn’t make sense, Daise. 

    btw wcw, when was the last time you saw a st albans nuffie make sense?

    Tell your friend it happens all the time, Daise. Just recently I was walking into Snorbz Woolies at the same time an undesirable was leaving. Right there on the threshold he says, “wanna buy Gillette razor blades?” I said, “No thanks, but dude, what are you doing? At least walk out of the shop and around the corner or something.” He said, “nah, this way I hit up people who haven’t spent their money yet.” Makes a heap of sense to me.

    LOL I said to the Woolies girl at the self-serve, “Wow. Did you just see that?” She said, “That’s nothing. He asked ME if I was interested in buying it. 😳

    reminds me of a story from years ago

    a friend of my son was working casual at myers during xmas break.  he observed this guy come in and pocket a relatively small but expensive item. he then proceded to the closest checkout counter and tried to return it for a refund. (myers had a very liberal return policy in those days)

    • 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.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
