I can honestly say I've never given it a nano seconds thought. Do you often reflect on how you're perceived by others ? Even anonymous internet nuffies ?

But I do note that you're quoting yourself in the third person in your last paragraph. Oh dear.

How have you not seen me do that before? You have been here in various forms for a decade.

And I am never offended by perceptions from anonymous, yet attributal, posters on forums.

But I don't see the harm in pointing out that those perceptions 'run the gamut' from obsequious sycophant of the MFC Administration to a vile upstart keen on maligning those in that Administration...

My round-about point is that you cannot judge someone by whatver that person has just said. Reading a book by the last page you read, as it were.

Anyway, what were we talking about?

 

If articles are going to be written about opinions from unverified sources, the author may as well just write an editorial.

Anyone can sign up to a forum and write anything, to push any point of view.

Even the article author could do that to set an agenda.

It worries me when I think of the possibly that some of posters on this site who do have their own agendas could be quoted.

Especially this season.

The term "the vocal minority" comes to mind.

(yes, I am aware of the irony).

What is reality anyway :)

But that happens on any level. People have agendas. Demonland is no different. It doesn't take long to see a particular slant.

The same people could also raise agendas at the AGM.

Demonland does give a fairly wide choice of view.

I have a bad habit of quickly skimming most posts. It's rare that I read one in depth.

It's all I can put it down to.

Clearly you've picked up that habit as a means of coping with your unneccessarily long and boring biopic. At least you learned more than me from that film.

On topic - if a player can't cop a serve from a coach he should go back to Auskick.

Not quite following BB, although if you are saying there is little to talk about - I am bitching about journalism again...

That means it's quiet...

It's just a bit of good post humour rpfc - but NEVER attack the media, they always win!


Have enjoyed all on this post even if the topic may have beeen derailed sometimes

Keep up the banter it does divert from some of the more painful aspects of supporting the DEES.

I really think you should consider changing your screen name...

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
