Amazing that Geelong's announcement has Clark in a Geelong jumper, but ours has Lumumba in a Collingwood jumper. Does anybody at the club have a clue how to promote themselves?

might be the only time he is actually seen wearing a cats jumper

    It's because Clark's photo was taken in April. #stirringthehornetsnest

    He is now one of ours, let's show him the same respect as we do to the rest of our list.....

    Good luck HL, you'll need it.

    He's even older than I thought his was. Yikes.

    At least Collingwood got Varcoe so we shouldn't cop too much from them.

    Welcome Heritier!

    Very happy to have a player on our list who can win their own ball and run away from a pack - we've been so good at hand balling it back in to congestion for so so long. Keen to see what Roos can do as I reckon we haven't seen the best of you yet.

    This definitely fulfils one of our needs and I think releases Howe to move further up the ground - another player who i think should continue to improve and see more of the footy.

    Ah shame, especially given none of the other Australians living over here seem to have any interest in AFL, let alone time to indulge in pre-season rumours on Demonland...

    I've given away Sherrins in both Addis and Nairobi

    edit...

    though truth be told they had EnergyWatch written on the side of them...

    Roll out the red and blue carpet. Prince has arrived.

    I wonder if he chose us so when he changes his name to symbol he can use the trident as his symbol.

    They've been too busy trying to photoshop Danger and Kennedy.

    ^^^ Good Belly Laugh... thank you ^^^ God I wish it was true.

    Spoke to one of my very good mates at a wedding over the weekend who is very close was a recently retired Collingwood player (I know it sounds like the Judd's grandma's baker's son srtory, but I am legit), anyway, said friend had a night out with H recently at said former Collingwood players wedding and his impression was nothing like the media portrayal that has been out there. He assured me that H was one of the best blokes going around and that he was a bit of a lad that does has fun. Although he can hold his own in an intellectual discussion. The two have remained friends since their meeting and I trust my mates assessment more than a bunch of bogan blokes at the Pies who reckon Gays and Penis' are hilarious. No one gets along with FIGJAM either, so won't trust his judgement. Welcome H, reckon you will be a beauty!

    I am guessing that Herri L's initiation to the club will go somewhere along the lines of this.

    Is this the prince formally known as prince?

    Welcome HL! Strong and clever HB or Mid and former All Australian. Collingwood had a glut of mids so hard for HL to break in but may prove different at Melbourne. HL together with Garlett are great pick ups without affecting draft picks much.

    Worth noting both players wanted to play with Us.

    Note that Brisbane have done well picking up Christenson and the Elite one Beams. Hoping MFC can score a brilliant Mid similar to Danger. Fingers crossed.

    I'm happy to have Lumumba on the list. He offers qualities we are sorely lacking, specifically pace and power. We struggled to move the ball quickly last year, but he is a powerful and direct footballer and will help out a lot.

    Welcome to the club H. Can`t wait to see you streaming off the half back line.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
