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

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.

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 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.

The fat lady has not sung on a couple of above Jonesbag.

Although she is limbering up.

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....

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

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
