So, who are we going to pick up for our midfield and how? And in the minds of the banana brethren, who are we willing to trade out?

Who do you want to complete our lines of coaches including a 2IC?

How much ground can we make (if any) on the competition?

And when was the last time you had anything banana?

Useless unknown alleged fact: Stuie Dew consumed a banana at half time in the 2008 GF. Will he need another to be released from the clutches of Colless/Longmire...stay tuned.

Ok...I'll play

A very left field hypothetical. A dodgy rumour, but i'll work with it suggest Rockliff might be avail for the right deal. ( we're talking using #2 in some manner ) Add Cross and make a play for Chapman.

Not my fancy really but Roos has a history....add Shaw into the half back line

Now right up a team sheet. A bit different huh ? :)

this would give us 2-3 years of competitive midfield whilst the youngens develop. We'd seriously straighten up. we'd almost look like a real football team....truly :)

Tommy Rockliff? Makes you wonder why this site pushed for Jurrah a hell of a lot more than Rockliff in that PSD, given what has transpired. Yeah I know, hindsight is a wonderful thing....

Nervous using up pick 2, it would want to be a good return.

it might not...it might need other 'negotiation' of other picks. But hes a fair dinkum mid.

Suddenly the gutz looks like Jones, Viney, Cross, Chapman, Rockliff, Toumpas, Trengove, Jordie.......

just an "what if "

Just heard from Mrs. Redleg. She and Mr. Redleg have successfully traversed the globe and landed in Nice where they start a cruise tomorrow. She reports that Redleg has scoured the local markets and will proudly carry a crate of bananas onto the ship. She also reveals that his shipboard reading is the Paul Roos biography which he has read 3 times since our new coach was appointed.

Thought you might want to know.

Would it be Wrong?

A man once told me that they wanted to see their team beat my team in a Grand Final by 1 point!

This incident happened in the mid to late 90's while we both were working for same Local Government in a North West Mining Town.

A Gentleman who made this outrageous statement later went on to be a radio personality in Perth.

Would it be wrong to seek Revenge over these comments?

Seized by French Customs when he arrived at the airport. Last I spoke to him, he was muttering something like "damn frogs!" under his breath.

If I were you I'd stay out of his way when he gets back.

I am celebrating a Grand Final win so I been changing my Avatar.

I always seem to pick the under dog teams so everyone is very special.

If only we had someone in charge of the MFC who know what they were doing before the start of the 2013 season, maybe I could be celebrating a MFC grand final win tomorrow.

So Prince William wore West Perth gear at the wedding?

Told you all to get with it two weeks ago.

Today I am a Hawk

We're a happy team at Hawthorn
We're the Mighty Fighting Hawks.
We love our Club, and we play to win,
Riding the bumps with a grin (at Hawthorn).
Come what may, you'll find us striving
Team work is the thing that talks,
One for all and all for one
Is the way we play at Hawthorn.
We are the Mighty Fighting Hawks.

Great Day

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    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
