" There's not much in this , just a bit of push and shove , the players have nothing to worry about !"

or

There's not much in this the posters have nothing to say

Have we just witnessed a "Watershed moment?"

After he won the 2007 Norm Smith medal, Steve Johnson said "We cannot rest on our morals."

Sage words. Most people's morals are far too flimsy for that.

I've got one.

It really grinds my gears when people start doing a Hutchy/Caro "it's a bad call/good call" rip-off.

It sounds dumb when they say it, so how do you think is reads on here?

The king of them all, and the bastion of moronic supporters everywhere: accepting mediocrity.

thats the one that gets me, accepting crap and making excuses

The thing I hate the most is when the media or anyone for that matter talk about players in plurals, the Sylvia's, Green's, Watt's, Davey's have to start....... blah blah blah. There is only one each of these player's why talk as if there are 3-4. Gary Ayres and Tony Shaw are the worst at it but heaps of "experts" do it, It give's me the shits.

To borrow a line from Peter Griffin "This really grinds my gears". The use of the word ELITE in football circles also grinds em.

What will be our "season defining game" in 2012?

It will be when several of the boys "have a break-out game".

Yeah footy commentators are big into hyperbole.

A team is either Elite or Insipid! doesnt seem to be much middle ground!

'Under the pump!' Wtf does that mean?

When sailing ships of yore were in a storm and taking on water the crew would man the pumps (manual) to prevent the ship from sinking. So to be under the pump was to be under extreme pressure and in dire straits.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
