P.S. If it is on the news then Demonland villain status has been averted.

You reckon? Huge chance the news got it from here. Typical case of us feeding our own rumour back to ourselves.

The excitement is overwhelming.

Although you do claim that Kurt never died

General Kurts who is up river, in the highlands? "the horror" is that who we are talking of?

I intend to be around these forums for a while, and I ain't going to lie. It's all done. Brendan is coming to the Dees, and I won't have egg on my face.

Like your confidence Kurt.

Not quite so apocalyptic Earl. I assume it's Kurt Cobain.

Whoops fair enough got my Kurts mixed up.

I can tell you now this source is quoted from Brendan McCartney himself.

He is going to the Dees on Monday. He wrote his own contract. He is VERY happy and sounds like he may even be our next senior coach in waiting. His role won't be much next year.

He rejected Essendon senior gig because of the scandal.

He built a bonfire with all his doggies stuff, had a party and burnt it cos he was treated like crap there.

Probably the only scoop I'll ever have so passing it on to fellow Demonlanders :)

I'm hardly a source of information either, but I was told at about the same time as the above post, very reliably, that Mc Cartney will be announced on Monday as our dev coach. it was from his work with Goodwin at essendon, that made him decide to come to the dees- he really rates him. Hird wanted him, but was rejected them for obvious reasons.

So how is McCartney such a good development coach if the Bulldogs players disliked him enough to get him sacked? How does that work? I'm honestly asking.

sounds like some over Egostatistical's got themselves in a lather

Good point Nasher. Can you make up a mini avatar for said Demonland villains?

It's how Barrett claims credibility on a story, he'll write a story in the HS and then go on AFL.com.au and say, "the Herald Sun is reporting....." as if it's someone else backing up his claim!

What's that thing on his nose?

Maybe he's Kurt Vonnegut? After all, "I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different."

Wow.

I thought to myself "McCartney sacked? Stupid bulldogs. If only we could bring in for a development role, but we'd never have the room or the money..."

Very pleased with this development.

As Dwayne Hoover said: "It's all life until you're dead."

good now he can tell us how to stop Libba when we play the dogs next.

We already know. Play Viney on him.

McCartney was a failure at the Bulldogs, hated by all. How is this a good get?

Just sounds like another reject at Melbourne, we would be just as well off going for Neeld as a development coach.

10 years at Geelong.

I think Footscray failed McCartney.

Nah he's a gun coach with a winning % of 30 he will go down as one of the great coaches of the modern era.

The discontent at the Bulldogs all year was just a myth.

Undoubtedly the greatest coach we have had since Norm Smith.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
