Ever the pessimist, I have no confidence about a win tonight.

I can’t wait for the umpires to pull out a performance of the ages.

I just see everything going wrong for us.

Wish I had a different mentality and love to be shown wrong.

Real name revealed at last!

    Oh the salty curmudgeon has reappeared.

    Ok I held a Tribunal hearing and in typical AFL fashion, went against the evidence and made up a decision.

    I have banned my self for 7 minutes.

    I will not appeal, as Carlton lawyers are unavailable.

    Just the other day I had the option of salty curmudgeon but went with the pastrami sandwich instead.

    Red, do this thread a favour and ban those [censored] emoji illiteracies !!!

    Oh ..... also ban yourself for using one.

    But that would just make them illicit illiteracies. An illicit illiterate is basically our opponents tonight.

    I'm alarmingly relaxed about this game. Positively oxymoronic in mood.

    Whatever happens, I suspect we'll see them again in a few weeks, if you take my meaning.

    Yes and I am not enjoying it.

    We really have thrown away a great chance at another flag, with a problem we have had for weeks and weeks, poor goal kicking accuracy. Additionally, a failure to go defensive in the last 2-3 minutes and flood the backline, is a blight on our coaching and leadership.

    We were in a PF with 1 minute to go, what a complete lack of understanding of the situation, we showed.

    FMD !!! As soon as I sort out some staffing issues at The Manor I shall give my full attention to this thread.

    I am considering mounting a coup against Redleg who is failing to provide any direction or leadership.

    I am too busy self flagellating after our finals exit.

    I am happy though to join your coup.

    Do you even know how to coup? You can’t coup yourself! It’s not a coup if you’re joining in to overthrow yourself. Silly bugger.

    The Ox was first speaker. Told some stories about his gambling mishaps- funny and entertaining…. but the message was clear. 
    Terrific speaker and entertainer!

    Plenty of casks I hope.

    Should I send the horse and cart to ferry you home to the manor, when the casks are empty?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
