    Yes it seems we do not have much luck.

    I seem to remember that a couple of those we drafted knowing they would be out their first year.

    Gawn and Fitzpatrick I think.

    I do not take a lot of interest in the fortunes of draftees at other clubs Redleg

    So I do not know if we are poor by comparsion or not.

    but like you I think we seem to have a lot of bad luck with these guys.

    PS you could have added Grimes to that list

    And probably a few more I have forgotten.

    If I was Jack Watts I would be destroying Cherries every night.

    I bet he's been slaying them since he was at Brighton.

    Could be why he is always so relaxed .

    Footy has certainly changed. Sledging about family gets you suspended. I was told in many amateur games I played, by my opponent, that he had f...d my sister. It didn't worry me too much, mainly becuase I haven't got a sister. Players today need to be very careful what they say both on and off the field.

    Very funny redleg .

    This modern trend of players telling players that they have raped their mother is appalling .These days a player cannot simply punch another player in the head so they are forced to "dob in" the offenders.it is a ridiculous sledge that says more about the sledger than the sledgee .

    the games getting bit soft I reckon. Sledging is just a mind game. If you re sucked in then youre fair game.. In out time red i reckon there was as much fun in the 'banter" and there was hip-shouldering someone into the turf/fence. Ah...dem good ol days !! lol

    On another note , it never fails to amaze me how often we draft a player and then he is out for most of his first or second season. Just some examples recently Taggart, Gawn, Evans, Gysberts, Tapscott, Cook, Jurrah, Fitzpatrick, Spencer, Tynan etc.

    Though not in first seasons, add Bartram.

    Looks like the thread will remain as is, especially as we don't mention the person who is central to at least 6 new threads recently and continues to be mentioned in several other threads. If for some other reason there is the need to change the name, I am happy to just delete the reference to "NO T$" and simply remain as the "NO B$" thread. Long may the thread continue and provide something a little different for Demonlanders.

    Old Dee if you are still wondering what to do with all those scarves, I saw a lady on Sunday wearing a large cape made out of old Dees scarves sewn together. It looked very impressive and quite warm I would have thought. I think it was just 4 scarves sewn together lengthwise

    A few more and you could have a great grandkid's bed cover. Does Mrs OD sew? (I assume you don't)

    Great idea. I have a lot of old Dees scarves. I will see if I can get them sewn together. It will make a great blanket when I watch dees games on TV.

    Thanks for the idea DC

    Yes Mrs OD does sow however not sure she will do the job mate.

    Bloody Pies fan.

    However it has given me a great idea for a blanket for No.1 Granddaughter.

    Now that will put the cat among the piegons!

    Or perhaps the dee among the pies!

    I am only naming them after the event. We are a cursed club. It has to change. No club in history has had to contend with what this club has been dealt this year.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
