I remember CC telling me on draft night, at a club function, before the draft that we wouldn't take Talia, but instead would take Gysberts and then Tapscott. I recall WJ and me being stunned at the news. I actually remember nearly arguing with him, but because he was telling me what Prendergast was doing I was in no position, to argue, given my limited knowledge.

If only I was the recruiting manager, I would have done better, only by using the info from Demonland and nothing else. At worst we would have Talia in our defence today and probably another midfielder instead of Gysberts or Tapscott. That is how bad Prendergast was.

It also didn't help, that when I met him a couple of times, I found him to be an arrogant, rude, pr1ck.

So are you telling us you liked him then?

You know that for a fact?

It's Demonland so I did not think facts was important here.

Not many did.

Craig Cameron might not have had great success as a recruiter but he presented himself to the supporters and often attended functions outlining the reasons for those decisions. He was always prepared to speak to Demonland/Demonology functions and our combined sponsorships raised thousands for the club.

All that stopped when Prendergast appeared on the scene. He was always too busy and I believe made himself available at the end of our final sponsorship year at a time that didn't really suit anybody and the whole thing folded.

The crowning glory of his recruiting would have to be most of the early picks of the 2008 and 2009 drafts and then, once he received the flack flick from the club he stitched us up in the tanking inquest. Mark Neeld was certainly not the greatest coach in our club's history but we can thank this bloke for providing some of the material with which he worked.

I keep telling people this thread gives great advice on a range of subjects.

Now some narrow minds (aka Moonshadow) will consider this distasteful DC but I'm sure you will accept this advice in the spirit in which it is given. I can't actually speak for Betadine but certain , shall we say stains of a personal nature, can never be fully removed from undergarments. My best advice is to put them in a charity bin and replace with items stolen from a poorly guarded clothesline.

I don't think having dealings with Miss Palmer will help in stain removal.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
