You know dee-luded Most people who know me tell me I am positive person.

I understand why some people on Demonland think the reverse.

I believe I put the real situation case, as it happens the MFC has been a sorry mess both on and off the field for now the better part of a decade.

So putting that position naturally looks negative, I am not into gilding the lily.

I actually admire people like the Reverend who seem to be able to find some good amongst a hay stack of crap.

But if I live long enough I will be very positive when we are in the top four.

Go Dees

I desperately need a win on Saturday

HaHaHa, just taking the pissz OD...

but you do sound more enthused than past years.

I'm sure we're all pessimistic around footy season @ Melbourne, especially if you've barracked for them for over 50 Years.

Just to set you straight on Richo.....he actually tore his quad muscle completely doing squats. He has a very large scar across his buttock which he isn't happy with. It was never reported in the media & they went with the hamstring issue. Also I am sure Mitch & Richo have talked....but they are two different individuals & people cope with things differently .

the first time in history we actually pull off a great trade, and for the first time in a decade have a genuine elite key forward.. and what happens? Oh yeah you barrack for Melbourne

Ban this imbecile once and for all.

Done.

Earlier this evening, a decision was made to ban this poster for a month.

On reviewing his posts and his record over time, I've overruled that decision.

The ban is now permanent.

Please let that be a warning to posters who believe they can constantly offend against our code of conduct and behave in an offensive manner to others on this site.

And finally, please show the appropriate respect to Mitch and to all players on the club's list.

Well said. I don't mind alternative opinions. I don't even mind what I consider backward and even plain stupid opinions. But you got to back them up with some logic and discussion otherwise you are plainly trolling. Add insult to other posters and it's a step too far. And plain insults with no respect to players and

It's a shame you have to spend precious time and energy dealing with this crap and you have no place here.

I really hope we can get a handful of wins or more this season. This place needs it nearly as much as the club.

Found it interesting that just last night H.MacIntosh played just his 7th game in over two seasons after battling constant injury, including no games in 2013.

Hopefully there's something in that for those trying to end Mitch's playing career due to his injury concerns.

could represent Mitch, an ace in the pack.

rather he was an ace on the park

What sort of insurance is this? Is it the use of insurance to pay out injured players? If so, I've never heard of this before. Can someone confirm whether such a thing exists? (Note: I'm asking a generic question about the use of insurance - not specific to Mitch Clark and whether he will continue to play or not).

Yes it does - every club has some form of insurance and all pay a healthy premium.

The analogy sounds heartless, but it's similar to horse owners taking out insurance on their gee gees.

I hope that whatever unfolds is done with respectful relationships, tact and empathy (assuming Mitch makes the dreaded call)

For mine,it's both brave and admirable that Mitch has clearly indicated that, for whatever reason, he is not travelling well. I would think that this would be daunting within an environment with such expectation.

I agree, it's great that he's spoken up.

It started in 2012' continued in 2013 and firmly into 2014.

Three is beginning to look a real possibility.

Are you looking for him to set a record?

not in favour of censorship, we will end up with a collective of monotonous conversations, mjt attacks mitch and gets attacked himself to the point of extinction by some moral high grounders who think only they have the mental fortitude and reason to decide what is right or wrong, some of you act like mitch is your only son ffs, it will be a very dull and self serving forum is this continues, he is a demon supporter and deserves a place on here

There are ways to have a stance on the topic without going overboard. Demonland done the right thing, mjt went a bit overboard in the end.

    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.
