We owe Mitch Robinson plenty.....

When do we play Carlton again?!

Even if Pigdog's not at full fitness, I hope the match committee select him for this game. Match ups are a relevant consideration after all ...

Saturday 12th April

However you may not get your wish as Robinson is not a regular starter at the Blues nowadays.

You may have to rely on Casey.

Correct me if I am wrong jr but that was in 2011 before 186.

Six wins from 54 games later it does not seem to have changed a lot.

I reckon that supporters are more worked up about that than the players.

As well half the players from that year are gone

Mind you, Mitch Robinson, although a thug and a cretin, unfairly cops it for branding MFC as "bruise-free footballers."

It actually came from a commentator (Dermie, I believe) and Robinson was merely asked if he agreed, to which he stupidly repeated the phrase and then gave a non-committal answer.

But he did belt a casey player, giving him a concussion.

Was it Bail?

Yeah, Bennell and Morton came in for the "Bruise-Free" event which didn't aid the cause.

I missed all of the second quarter looking for my Carlton-supporting mates which was a fortunate stroke.

It was immediately before we played Essendon, I believe.

Another of our string of upsets against the bombers during those years.

Riley has just gone onto the long term injury list.....

doesn't that just mean he can't play for 6 weeks, which would not be unexpected

sounds like roosy wants to release one of the rookies, not hard to guess who

Unprovoked cowardly act behind the play. Bail's first & probably most severe concussion.

I would think Harmes would be ahead of Jetta based on the training reports.

I was being facetious.

I'd think it'd be Mr. Bean for an underdone Garland.

Bail has never been the same since - no tribunal penalty, for anyone, can be severe enough for any hit to the head, especially behind play.

Thought it was Jordie.

It was Bail. Paul Wheatley remonstrated and spent the rest of the game bumping and pushing him whenever he came near.

Correct. New breed coming through.....but I reckon that interview will still be played, somewhere, sometime, some place....

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
