75 inside 50's , 47 clearances and buddy, tippett, goodies, jetta, Reid up front

It's scary

Sydney or GW$ is irrelevant.

A 9 game broadcast deal is what they want.

If the Swans are winning the advertising $$$ roll in.

GW$ is a side issue

so, Port, Freo, the Suns are all side issues, together with GWS?

the AFL aren't a bank trying to grow money, there trying to grow the game WYL. Next will be IMO New Zealand.

no. Sydney is the big market DL.

Full Stop.

Tippett and Franklin are just ripping the cats apart tonight.

The fact The Swans are able to recruit both players is a disgrace.

Salary Cap Bullshite.

I am dreaming of Roosy beating the Swannettes on the last saturday in September.

The wine is kicking in!!!

Yep, if the Swans didn't have these two we'd have won the flag this year!

Don't you ever get sick of whinging and blaming others?

no. I am merely highlighting massively uneven Salary Caps within the one competition.

Facts.

Not necessarily true.. There's been 8 different teams win NBA championships in the last 20 years, 11 different AFL teams.

I suppose the bonus of that is in theory when we start to challenge for a flag we should be around the mark for a while

I must be dreaming, Geelong getting smashed by more than 100pts while we have only had 1 team kick 100pts against us!

????? Blues-95? Pies-2010? Bombers-2000? Hawks-2013? Eagles-2006?

the Swans won their first for 72 years, in 2005, then again in 2012.

the Cats won their first for 44 Years in 2007, then others in 2009, & 2011.

Not entirely

but anticipating the soon-to-be-savoured work product of football journalists who operate without fear or favour

HaHaHa.

No I was suggesting a few days ago that I thought the Cats were looking blunt, stale, over the last couple of times I've caught a few minutes watching them. Normally when they are struggling backs against the wall, these modern Cat teams usually respond.

not this time. not much fight.

Sydney's half back line ripped the Cats apart. Their rebound and run through the middle was intense.

Dont forget we have Vlad to thank for PJ, and therefore The Messiah.

We have Vlad to thank for tarnishing our name and dragging us through the tanking saga.

Over 10 sides tanked before us and some more blatantly, yet Vlad decides to drag our name through the mud.

Roos and PJ are great, but the damage the tanking saga done to MFC is irreversible.

Dont you mean Adrian Anderson? Vlad was on holidays mate, he dodged the tanking questions like Mayweather for years, AA wanted to be a big shot and prove himself.

Northern Queensland Cairns/Townsville I reckon will be their next target.

After that they'll either look to Tassie or NZ for a 20th team. Tassie if they just want a smooth transition. New Zealand if they want to go international which I don't believe they're that keen on doing, but we'll see.

If Vlad wanted to stop the tanking investigation into MFC, he could've.

In the end, the evidence wasn't there - yet they still handed down fines, Vlad isn't a guy who goes by the book, he is a guy who answers to no one.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
