John So for President

Featured Replies

 

Even so. I'm not convinced.

Might need ruck.

 

Racist joke

O.K.

What do you call a sheep tied to a pole in New Zealand?


Any thoughts ?

its a shame nobody is taking you seriously, because its actually a brilliant idea for many reasons, including the possibility of new members from the Chinese community

I really hope it happens now

To be honest, he is a bit of a faux supporter but one of the biggest issues we have had over the year is our insular culture and our unwillingness to truly embrace outsiders (Jimmah and Sean Wight aside). John So might be good in helping us dispel the notion that we are a stuffy rich white man's club.

That being said, I think John So was into supporting Melbourne to help John So. I think he had a thing with the Storm as well to say he 'was a big supporter of Melbourne' or some junk like that. The next president needs to be committed and in for the long haul

 

Is the pole newly arrived in NZ or been living there for a while?

Very drole ,

but I was speaking of the stripping variety of pole.

John would be so good to get.

Polished public performer, successful businessman, media cred.

One query - does he genuinely barrack for us or was that just politically useful as lord mayor?

Jokes aside-I think he would be good for the job.

Good for sponsorship ,good for the club.

Why not.

... lookout,,,, Darwin Demons comin' your way 'So'.... & call the stadium Hells Kitchen.

John So wouldnt be able to name one Melbourne player without the prompting of one of his aides. He was as token a #1 ticketholder as we've

had since Rupert Murdoch back in the 80s.

While he may have been a 'popular' Lord Mayor, that doesnt mean he was good at his job. He managed to surround himself with many a sycophantic

and canny Councillor (Gary Singer,Catherine Ng,Ken Ong et al), and they spent the best part of a decade feathering their collective nests with cushy

deals with overseas developers, as well as raising the salary of City of Melbourne Councillors to all time record highs.

John So? He may be your bro, but for me its a big no.

this. His restaurants got away with a lot of stuff while he was Lord Mayor too.


does John So barrack for Dees? If he wants the job I'm all for it.

Agreed enough of the "inadvertent" comments. Can be offensive if you've copped this your entire life in Australis. Boring and so not funny.

Does that mean Jack Watts jokes are off the list too? So what, you might say.

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
