Thanks will give it a try. May come out of retirement, as we will have plenty of spots on the list to fill.

I'm sure you'd have more of a crack than some have this year Redleg!

    The departing player list is growing and reference is made to many clubs being interested in the players. We will see what we get in return, if anything.

    Interesting Redleg that Gysberts has a year to run on his contract.

    So there is an obvious breakdown there.

    I thought it was obvious in the first few games he was not in favour

    Then Injured and who knows from there.

    Apparently a couple of clubs have inquired about him.

    Churning our list at the moment is like sellign a house. If you HAVE to you will take a hit. Sometimes you have to, theres no waiting. The alternative is even worse, to hang on to second rate players just because youd be affraid to have to have a fire sale.

    Well, we're Melbourne, our whole football existence could be described as living in hell. Its warm there.

    Light the fires !!! :)

    Apologies in advance for posting Pies paraphernalia.

    I'm looking around for TV's. Found this one, some of the comments are priceless.

    Toothless Hordes Branded TV

    Could anyone from collingwood afford it? do you have a dole check exchange program?

    ....i think this model should be called "Bogan", not Kogan!!!!!

    Why would someone who normally steals a tv, pay for one?

    Good that collingwood get cheap tv, no home to put it in tho.. caravan with a generator??

    Is it only a Black and white tv :P Bwahahahaa!

    Kogan does Bogan! Well done! Now try a fan base that could afford one.

    now we know where the baby bonus is going for sure!

    $450 could buy that one more tooth you were saving up for this christmas....

    Am I correct in saying that it was Pythagorus who came up with the theory that the sum of the salaries of the first three place getters for the Kevin Sheedy Medal was not equal to the salary of the fourth place getter?

    If so, it all sounds like Greek to me.

    He may have also come up with the the formula for Recruiter's waistlines. that being Waist = Pie Arse Squared !!

    Is it just me tonight BB I am struggling to find a thread that interests me.

    Seems we are generating multiple thread that cover the same 2 -3 subjects.

    I might have to give Demonland a break it is similar to our season at present.

    Old...I think weve enetered that twilight zone that is the EOS. Especially the finals' weeks where theres only so much that can occur as much often included players of the competing teams.

    We have what amounts to a leap-liek year occurence whereby no Senior coach is on the block, things remain rather calm and the ususal suspects make a ruckus in the cheap seats.

    Its a bit like the 7 stages of grieving. Season ends, there's murmurs, theres rumours and a truck load of speculation. All the "in the knows" come out of the woodwork. Why are they never around much 'during' the season? lol . Some who seldon post suddenly come to life and the rest of us go fishing for the gems. The net is often empty.

    Theres a few events of late Im already over. That actually surprises myslef somewhat but theres just no point worrying about so many things is there :)

    A hell of a lot of jumping at shadows BB.

    The thing that really surprises me is we have had what may have been the worst season in 30 years, this is the sixth bummer in a row.

    We clearly have a large number of poor players

    And yet people don't want to make changes.

    Oh well the racing season is upon us and the NBL is just around the corner

    Hopefully they will distract me for a few months.

    Have a good night mate

    Its been a funny year. A Keating year... lol Very cathartic !! :unsure:

    Not much on the scoreboard as they say , but its been all about what s happening in the rooms this year.

    I wasnt concerned before the season started about wins. it wasnt about wins. I know some think in a terribly simplistic way. If we arent winning were losing. A certain reality to that but irrelevent to what this season was about. Never was about wins. It was about finding out about the players. This has been done. Now the next phase. This is actually exciting. Something REAL Something progressive.

    ahhh Progress theres something different :huh:

    Pies will lose Maxwell and maybe Tarrant next game through the MRP. If Johnson got a week, Maxwell has to at a minimum. Off the ball to the face and left the ground bleeding. Tarrant gave Buddy a good one to the ribs from behind and should also get at least a week.

    I am not homophobic, but does there need to be an Ad on the Demonland Melbourne Demons Forum page at the top headed " Meet Gay Men Online". There are young kids on Demonland and I think it is pretty ordinary. It seems to be alternating. Now it says meet Asian Women For Love Online. Gee.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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.
