I think the Blues may be on the way down, as Judd, Scotland, Simpson, Waite and other experienced players will soon retire, or leave, like perhaps Betts.

I would still rather be the Blues than us redleg.

Their list is still way better with out those players.

Sad but very true, I have done a new " good enough" list since I did the first one and it is shrinking by the day.

My latest estimate is down to 12.

Long way back from there

Watch the pathetic side GWS will field in its last game of the year against GC. Guarantee better players will be rested. They want pick 1.

Another day, another media frenzy at Docklands.

This negotiating penalty is getting a very ridiculous look to it.

The MFC should have negotiated when it accepted a penalty for non Tanking the 2015,16,21,25 Premierships.

What could have been if we have the right culture and someone who could have said NO to the AFL.

Thompson makes me laugh with his "we are not drug cheats " line.

The delusional line is thrown around with Gay abandon on Demonland and I have never used it till now.

Mark you are delusional!

Did anyone notice the size of Zaharakis' body when he kicked the winning goal on Saturday night?

To think that he was recruited in the same draft as Sam Blease and both of them were skinny winger/flank types with lots of pace back in those days. Of course, Sammy was held back by the fact that he was still at school in his first year at the club and then he broke his leg but Zaharakis looks like he's now had about five pre seasons more than him.

I've heard it said that Essendon players were able to train harder and recover better than other teams not receiving the help they were getting through their supplements regime. In this way, their kids could have gained the benefit of many pre seasons in quick time.

Now if they embarked on the programme in order to get a competitive edge and they used substances and methods that are not approved under the world code to which the AFL subscribes, then the words "drug cheats" fit properly and they should be punished appropriately.

It is my understand from reading specific articles from Messendon that its OK to impound compounds from Indonesia and have a Chemist prepare a batch of special supplements as long as no one knows what they are injecting and every denies everything.

Clearly the Messendon Players body development is from take vitamins C B and E, praying towards Windy Pill 13 times a day and worship the one and only GOD "Hird". What other explanation could it be for this type of body development?

Exactly. 120+ point loss to Richmond at home in Skoda and Cameron hardly getting a touch (in fact worst on ground)......and not one mention of it in the media!

It makes me sick.

It appear cycling is in for a very rough time.

From what I read so far if you did not take drugs you where not selected.

Always though there was something wrong in that sport.

Especial when in the indoor quad pursuit smashed the world record to play off for gold and they drop a local kid to make room for one of their mates to race and get a guaranteed gold metal. One would assume if a team smash's a world record you would not relace any of its members.

Oh well don't think we will hear much about cycling for awhile unless its Drug related.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
