I thought Cale Morton would be an Adam Goodes Mach 2.

Cale done a great job at bluffing me, he done a good job tagging Goodes

and hasn't been sighted since.

Nowadays I just cringe when I see Morton listed.

I had Robert Cuthbertson's number on my new footy jumper as a kid. Most recently I told anyone that would listen that Liam Jurrah would be the greatest Aboriginal to pull on footy boots

Finally I remember walking into Video Ezy and seeing a small patch allocated to DVD's

then telling my mate they will never take off

You should have worn Darren's - he played more. Who's Robert?

Nathan Carroll to be AA full back shortly before Jonathan Brown decapitated him.

Juice newton would kick 100 in a season.

Ps daz dees did nick (4 to 6) smith ever actually play a game?

Was that 100 kicks or 100 goals? Don't know if he even reached the first.

Still to early to call a prendergast, but I've been talking up gysberts for years to my mates as a future AA mid

I thought Michael Clark will be an awesome footballer.

Don't remember who he is? Don't feel bad, I'd have forgotten him too if it wasn't for a function in which he told me he broke both his arms "in a toilet incident".

Worst. Prediction. Ever.

Mark Latham will win this one in a landslide.

I recall watching the reserves at Princess Park back in 1998. Melbourne was playing Carlton. From memory Stinga returned in the Seniors that day and we beat Carlton. I think it was also the day Neitz broke his ankle in the pocket playing on Silvagni. I was sitting in the new Legends stand and I recall Ben Beams kicking 5 or 6 in the reserves, looking very lively and thinking this kid might make it long term for the Demons. Didn't quite turn out that way.

Thinking back Nathan D. Brown played in that game which may have been one of his first games (maybe even his debut - memory hazey) and did ok.

I've run through a possible scenarios in my head but I still have NFI how something like this happens..

I said Lucas Cook will be a gun

Morton will be a gun

Gysberts will be a gun

Cringing whilst I write this. I would like to apologise to the rest of demonland for my stupidity.

I just read the thread title again and I take back what I said. No matter what I did it could never be as bad as a Prendergast.

They don't call him Pederast for nothing.....he sure shafted us

Dogga's first game IIRC with his long blonde mop (ha).

We rolled the Blues by 2 points in a game that involved Seecamp belting Pearce.

Think it was also that game that ended Jimmy's streak? Or nearly did after a broken wrist (?).

I went with 'Howard's majority will be reduced/Latham will sneak in with a small majority'. I always knew it would be close. It hit hard after Bush had been re-elected a week earlier.

Oh this one's embarassing.

When Garry Ablett Jnr was very young I wasn't happy with all the hype surronding him for what I considered to be, at that stage, very minimal on field influence.

I believe I even said something along the lines - He is only hyped before of who is father is - on football ability alone he is Geelong's equivalent of Steve Armstrong.

In my defence this was at a time when I thought Steve Armstrong was a solid up and coming half forward, all I thought Gaz would become....

Posted

I don't know if this qualifies but when Mitch Clark kicked his fourth goal before quarter time v GWS at the G this year, I told my mate that he'd finish with 12 for the day.

Your not alone there...

We kind of followed the States like a Conga line of suckholes didn't we.

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
