Odds on Chipper turning up to the B&F night?

about the same odds as him turning up for mad monday


Did chip turn up at Mad Monday

Did chip turn up at Mad Monday

Just a cardboard cutout of his dopey mug.

So he didn't turn up? But I thought he hadn't made his mind up yet.. So much for honest country boy, what does that even mean? Is one to assume because you were conceived by a bail of hay and grew up with chooks you are more honest than a regular boy from the big smoke? Spare me

I doubt anyone would have thought you meant the other one Deeoldfart

Anyone going?

Should be an interesting affair.

I went for the first time last year and it was an OK night so I'm going again this year. Last year, I thought there might be the exciting announcement of the new coach but, sadly not. Like many recent MFC events, disappointing. However, in true Demon supporter fashion, I've learnt nothing from the experience so am going again this year.

Am not expecting anything extraordinary this year so might be pleasantly surprised by something....the second coming of Mitch, the re-signing of Frawley, Sylvia asking to come back, etc. never stop believing.

I found out about Roo's on BNF night last year. They don't announce things over the PA, you just gotta keep your ears peeled and talk to the right people. ;)


My picks:

Nate Jones

Tyson

Dunn

Vince

Cross

Jetta, Howe, and Tommy Mac the only others I can see possibly getting top 5.

Dom Tyson will smash the best first year player, and Jetta most improved (Pederson's quiet end to the year drops him out).

1. Tyson

2. N Jones

3. Jetta

4. Dunn

5. Vince

I doubt anyone would have thought you meant the other one Deeoldfart

I agree old dee, but if there was a sheep station or a bottle of red at stake, I'd hate to miss out on a technicality or a protest!

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
