    How come "T$ B$" is acceptable but my genius spoonerism of "Scum Tolly" wasn't? Boo.

    I share your pain Nasher, but i am not a mod and have no powers on Demonland and in fact I am not responsible for the various name changes to this thread. They are being done by a higher power.

    Speaking of higher powers, WJ has just arbitrarily locked the Denham thread. It was being viewed and added to regularly and yet on the whim of one person it is now locked. Goodbye to democracy and freedom of speech on Demonland.

    Not prepared to give the programme any more free publicity and besides, it's been flogged to death like this thread and the banana fetishists around here.

    Neither accurate and neither of which would stand up in a court of law as you would well know.

    Perhaps you might want to explain to the punters what happened to your each way tip Bauer in the Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Flemington. An apology to Her Majesty for botching up the selections in her race would seem to be in order, would it not?

    Have already spoken to her. She asked me why we didn't have a pick in the first round of this year's draft. I explained to her about Clark.

    Just back from a 3.2k. 14 minutes - I think I need to do a little more work in order to be an elite mid, that's for sure . . .

    Boy, do I have a Jack for you?

    Knightmare's 2011 Mock Draft on bigfooty currently has Jack Charleston down as pick 52 which, conveniently enough, would make him a Demon (previously had him going to Collingwood for a later pick).

    Jack Charleston (VIC – Mid/Util)

    Height: 177cm, Weight: 83kg, DOB: 09/01/1993

    Recruited from: Western Jets

    Range: 35-rookie

    Profile: Had a really nice season for the Western Jets though the midfield. Big ball winner. Has great footy smarts. Was probably pretty unlucky not to make the Metro squad. Really tough player with good pace. Not afraid to take on opposition players. Has grown strongly as the season has gone and is one to watch, has made the transition from back pocket to midfielder really quickly and can even go forward and have an impact.

    You can also have Jack Crisp, Jack Newnes or Jackson Paine if you want.

    Yes she thinks Clark will straighten us up. She also said we need to work on our press and disposal.

    Will get in a little early here with 18 days and counting.

    Draft comment: many Dees fans may miss the first 30 odd picks and then start getting involved with the Foxtel coverage.

    They could do us a favour by televising all of the selections in reverse this year instead of just the first ten.

    I think because of GWS the reverse coverage of the first 10 picks will be axed.

    "We thought he would have gone early second round, maybe even late first round - we're certainly fortunate for him to be there at pick 36. The other two selections - we can't believe they weren't picked up earlier - put it this way, we were looking at them for pick 36 !" - quote to come from MFC recruiter post draft.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • NON-MFC: Round 14

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.

    • 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.
