Note that timing is everything. North case out of the way. Crows by next tuesday. Then AFL staff fly out to GC for a couple of days sun and relaxation before the draft. After the draft a couple more days in the sun and then home.

Dees inquiry will go on until nearly xmas and IMO then be abandoned. AFL staff then off to xmas holidays.

    When do you think this will be over? End of January?

    It's annoying that this will be lingering for so long, but great opportunity for us to get our defense sorted and water tight

    Tend to agree Redleg. I've found the re-interviewing very interesting though. Perhaps they pressed stop/record too many times initially.....

    according to afl website Lucas Cook will decide which club he will play football in Wednesday?

    Brian Cook you mean...:)

    As I mentioned recently somewhere that meeting at Icebergs with the AFL and Cook must have been something else.

    A seafood basket with a side serve of brown paper bag with "North" written on it.

    Yep, they know if this goes to a court they wouldn't have stood a chance with interview practices and duress like that. This is a good sign for us

    Demonland has certainly hotted up today. This draft unfettered. New player Tom Gillies. A QC hired by the MFC.

    I feel a celebratory banana smoothie coming on.

    I had a banana smoothie last night Redleg. No B$ (on topic), bit of crushed ice and watched replays of Clarke, Cowan & Hussey pounding the Sth African attack. Not one thought re: the ND, I could 'see clearly again'. I'll have another tonight, my son loves banana's and due to their relative low cost now, they're in no short supply at our household.

    Gee, ADC is missing all this pleasant conversation, it's a shame.

    It shows how down we all are when any bit of good news sends us into raptures.

    BTW a drop of Khalua in the old banana smoothie can sure change the flavour.

    Rumour to be quashed:

    A certain Mr. & Mrs. Redleg were seen today boarding a cruise boat out of Sydney today on what has been described as a "rock n roll cruise".

    Apparently, Mr. Redleg wants to relive the days of his youth when rock n roll was in vogue and the Demons were kings.

    Coincidentally, baggage handlers were seen loading 12 dozen crates of ripe bananas onto said cruise ship.

    I'm genuinely pleased for him. He can hit the dance floor on the love boat and jive to Banana-Rama knowing that whilst jiving our club will be active as ever this National Draft 7 days from now.

    7.

    Correct WJ we are on a 60's & 70's music cruise. Never seen so many people dancing. Saw the best Queen cover band ever and the lead singer was Freddy's double both in looks and voice. Beat less and ccr cover bands also brilliant. My feet are killing me from non stop dancing. I am getting fitter maybe Neeld will give me a chance, he has drafted every other old player around, only joking.

    Seems like a few other clubs have cap problems, especially carlscum, great.

    Looking forward to getting back on Sunday and catching up with training.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
