Well 2019 has closed and we are once again looking up from the bottom. Having got that negativity out of the road I am staggered at the amount of poor / pointless rubbish on Demonland at present. We have thread after thread of negative crap the majority of which has little if any grounding in fact. I feel this thread will once again be the only one worth reading.

Bananas are good at the moment, just had a banana and peanut butter sandwich for lunch.

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Though that LBW appeal by Lyon in the dying stages was as plum as they get

It was and only MFC type luck, they used the last review on a certain failure. Captain admitted Cummings told him not to review, as it was a certain not out. 

And Lyon misses a stumping he wouldn't have missed since he was in kinder, with Leach half way down the pitch, trying to get back.

I'm not a big fan of the 2 reviews each per innings. If it's a howler, it should be corrected, regardless. And don't get me started about how the umpires stupidity won the one day World Cup for England.

But yes, we had many chances. I like Tim Paine, but his lack of experience shows.

BBO assured me we couldn't possibly lose at start of play yesterday...

He is a drunk, what would he know? He should stick to self flagellation in his dungeon at the Manor.

I hope the injuries don't affect our game next week.

Who are we playing in our first final?

I have worked long and hard to reach the peak of this honourable profession Red - I would appreciate you not commenting on it in a disparaging manner.

As to your vulgar suggestion as to how I should spend my (not drinking) time. I'll have you know that it is the maid who benefits from my considerable flagellating skills!

As a Dees supporter, I appreciate the benefits of a drink or two.

I am so disillusioned with footy and our season, I have already stopped taping the 2 sunday morning footy shows.

Still taping the rest during the week, in the hope there is a good trade rumour for us.

Mr Leg I fear you have slipped into a serious case of depression and a visit to a specialist is now over due.

As for watching " tv footy shows" I fear that maybe your biggest problem.

You must believe they will offer words of wisdom or similar. 

Sadly I have to advise you that they probably the root cause of your depression.

i have two suggestions that I believe will help.

(1) do not watch TV footy shows.

(2) Aquire a taste for good single malt, It will help to get you through the bad days.

Never had a scotch in my life.

Depends on how many scotches you (or they) have had.

After a few more, elephants fly as well.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
