    Redleg believe me you don't feel like you are there.

    I trekked the Kokoda a few years back we never get the humidity here like up there.

    I look at the moving pictures and shudder, it would be hell.

    Its very easy at times to get carried away in the midst of a preseason. We've all done it here i'm sure but this one is so, So , different. its hard to know where to start even. Is it the locales, is is the support infrastructure, is it the reporting , the videos , the fresh faces, the beaming older ones. Is it the sweat pouring off glistening bodies or is there something else, something a little less tangible but none the less prevalent amongst the group. Confidence, and a belief that they are actually on a journey going 'somewhere'.

    So many times we've allowed ourselves to believe we were at the gate only to later realise it wasnt open at all.

    This is no longer some kind of mickey mouse outfit , this is actually a professionally and properly run business whos job it is to field a competitve AFL team.

    I dont think good ol' Big Kev could be any more excited than I :)

    Spent saturday evening with a hoard of Tigers

    Looks like Freo exacted revenge for Mitch Clark by taking Hanath. Don't know if they even spoke to him. Pity.

    They would have drafted him to fill a need, that's all.

    He's talking about the nervous nellies out and about highlighting the 21st as the end of the world.

    Well us Demonlandes just can't allow that to happen. We should all sign a petition refusing to participate until we have our next Flag. After all, Melbourne started the game, and we have a birth right to be drinking from the final premiership cup as the curtain comes down.

    Yep.

    WYL, how many pages are you looking at in your book?

    Hopefully you're talking to producers about a movie (series even)....and a book launch....wonder who will play WYL in the movie? Alan Alda?

    50shadesofWYL book launch will be bigger than Ben-Hur!

    Must be chapters on "Batting first", "Top 150", "Michael Clarke", ..the list is endless. 50 chapters would fit in well with the title..

    Alan Alda!! Hahaha! Far too dull for me, Kevin Spacey is a better fit by far.

    As for the topics you have raised, i have them covered here. The first rule of editing is to not repeat yourself, unless of course you are Taratino, Olly Stone or David Lynch...Stanley Kubrick..Chaplin who are genius at showing the same scene through different eyes.

    How about Sean Penn with Halle Berry as a love interest.

    yes, i agree. But Sean is a little highly strung to play yours truly..Kev is far more my speed.

    Breakfast with Halle Berry would be a good starter though!

    Hey WYL, without breaching the official secrets acts, I've being dying to know if rhino gets a guernsey?

    I hope you don't do a LJ and go too early on this book :)

    Might look silly if we win a flag a month after you release it :blink:

    I can't make up my mind on a suitable title. Tossing up on

    "Demons, Drugs and Drongos"

    "Demons, Drugs and Drunks"

    "Demons, Drugs and HornBags"

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
