What can you expect from a back pocket?

    Who moved the thread off the football board?

    Clearly wants the thread not to discuss football and to effectively whither and die.

    Must have a terrible culture at Adelaide!

    "While Steven May’s dig at Collingwood has raised eyebrows, he wasn’t the only one over the weekend to take a shot at the premiers.

    Speaking after winning the club’s best and fairest on Saturday night, Adelaide skipper Jordan Dawson revealed he messaged teammates during the grand final to tell them the Crows were better than Collingwood and Brisbane."

    I think it was your pride-based call to erect a stature in your honour (2 in fact!) that did it Red. Andy and the Mods saw "red" at your request and decided to banish you.

    Their loss, it is the biggest, most posted, most read, longest lasting and best thread ever on DL, never causing a problem either and yet for some reason there is this desire to end it.

    Football is discussed, yet it is put on a general discussion board.

    I agree with you Red. Moving this thread is [censored]!

    Demonland has become unfathomable of late!

    Forget the culture of the MFC, maybe we need to discuss the culture of Demonland.

    Opening Demonland is like buying a packet of cigarettes.  Graphic warnings front and back.

    I'm happy if it dissuades people from smoking, but saddened at what it and other actions are doing to Demonland.

    @Redleg, it's time for some action to get this thread put back on the main board. It doesn't deserve to die in obscurity way out here (it doesn't deserve to die at all!) - but it surely will unless something is done.

    I think we all need to post on every thread in the Football and Trade threads demanding this great thread be restored to the football thread, it’s rightful home.

    Post some footy content every time too, like this for example, I think Tracc should play forward for parts of the game. Clearly it is therefore a footy thread not a general one.

    Yes praise be to Demonland.

    We are back bigger than ever and we are all invited to BBO’s manor, to watch the draft and see if we trade up, or take two future champions and another good player in Brown. I didn’t want to put too much pressure on Kynan.

    See how I put some footy discussion into my post. I think we all need to do that here and there, to remain on the footy thread.

    WJ and I were discussing today whether we use a rookie spot on a mature ruckman for a year or so, any thoughts?

    PS: can’t wait to celebrate with a banana daiquiri.

    Go Footy!!!

    I’m watching Erin Phillips in her last match. The most decorated player in the league and she just kicked her first goal for the day which is also the last goal of her career. The home crowd at Alberton went nuts. She’s an absolute champ. Of course I wouldn’t be so glowing in my praise if Port weren’t second last on the ladder. 😁 GO DEES!!!

    It seems Red is also heading to other parts of the world to talk to other red and blues parties discussing heads of house.

    I come from the state of bananas, but recently in Singapore had two of the nicest bannanas ever. Anyone else had good overseas banana experiences?

    Redleg’s tip for the cup, if Vauban runs to his best he will win easily, with daylight to second.

    It is a big IF of course.

    Remember Gambling is addictive.

    Only 2 weeks to the draft, oh the nerves.

    • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
