I noticed there was no bugular today. I doubt he was having a week off. Has he gone with Cameron. Maybe they had been trying to get rid of him and cameron demanded he stay.

I must say no one noticed around me that he wasnt here so he wasnt missed to much.

It was good just to have a team run out to the song and thats it.

    "Enter Sandman" was still playing as the team was hovering in front of the banner.

    Honestly I don't know why we need a song to "run out to" as it takes 10 seconds to run up the players race to the boundary.

    It should just be Grand Old Flag loud and several times over.

    And isn't it obvious? The bugler has been fired.... out of a cannon... into the Yarra.

    Is this that thing they were talking about over the summer, about having some song playing as we run out?

    I hate it. I hate it more than the bugler. Get rid of it.

    Why does this club continually think it needs to try these pathetic attempts at being 'cool'? The bugler, the 'Grand New Flag', the bagpipers, Nick McCallum's talks before the game, now this song crap.

    Robbo seems to do OK on game day though. I think he has found his niche as King of the Kids.

    I think Robbo has replaced Nick McCullum. I didnt even notice the song we ran out to. Oh well. I wonder if that was Peter Spargos first thing he thought of. Remove the bugular.

    Finally...
    I JUST KNEW IT WAS CAMERON SCHWAB BEHIND ALL THAT CRAP! (though the bugler was introduced before he came back wasn't he?)

  • Quote

    I've never seen Cameron Schwab and the bugler in the same room....Not saying anything, but food for thought.

    I have it on good authority that the bugler turned up sporting a beard (at least it was a 3-4 day growth) and the acting CEO took one look and sent him home.

    Hairlip overnight. :)

    Tell him to practice out at the Whitten Oval, they love playing Dirges over there.

    Have to admit it was good to hear the Buglar pipe up from the second tier with around a minute to go today. I had a smile

    Probably the best use for him, rather than before the game, could be a bit like Joffa's jacket...

    Yep. Only boast when you're certain it can't come back and bite you in your bugular.

    I'm still don't like it but if he is a private citizen in the stands doing it, who cares? I was just against him doing it on the ground before the boys ran out. I agree with Stuie. It could be a bit like Joffa's jacket. Wheel it out when we win.

    My brother tells me that the bugler was playing at every station along the dandenong line before the game. Not sure if it was official or he was doing it as Joe Citizen.

    It works a lot better when the siren's about to go and we're going to win.

    If I ever hear it in a close game where we might lose, I'll scream, though.

    Must have been official as he was on the train with the mascot and Dees staff.

    My favourite Joffa moment is ANZAC day 2009.

    Joffa dons the jacket with the Pies about 16 up 26 minutes in.

    5 minutes later...

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
