    Normally only pops up during the season I thought.

    Don't worry, his wisdom will enlighten us all all too soon.

    Fixed.

    Not sure why it was offensive, happy for a PM to explain your views.

    I find people bringing Heroin into Australia far more offensive personally

    And even more offensive is the Media turning them into political heroes..

    Just my opinion....

    It's probably to confirm that the Melbourne Football Club must be on the right track, as amateur "journalists" like Damien Barrett aren't publicly sticking the boots in to our club. The fact that some have not noticed his poor reporting means that he is either sacked, not reporting on the MFC and focusing on some other topic, or that he is on extended leave in Indonesia.

    The OP rightfully has concerns about the person that seemed to stalk us for the past few years, especially now that it appears he has left without a trace. It is understandable that someone would be concerned for his welfare, yet at the same time have a sense of relief that the bins at the MFC are no longer being raided by an insignificant nothing.

    At last, something of substance, although I think you're probably being a bit generous to the OP.

    Pretty much where i was coming from, he has seemingly dropped off the face of the earth, just curious if anyone was aware as to why he wasn't posting articles on AFL.com anymore.

    You may think he is an idiot but the word is he get a lot if scoops.

    Mostly down the park while he walks his dog mind you.

    I can't fathom why anyone would bring up the subject of DB, let alone a discussion about the tool.

    I'm hoping his absence is permanent.

    Referring to him as a journo is being very kind...

    Journo's are employed for one thing only.........................to write fairytales about happenings that don't exist in the real world. This sells daily rags apparently and in turn feeds these ravenous creatures along with their repugnant offspring. Occasionally there is a hint of actuality but this soon vanishes when truth is uncovered in their mind's own dungeons. It's a shame that much of the printed stuff that emits from their ramblings is not even suitable for mankind's most putrid daily ablutionary exercise. Ahh yes, journo's are not a flavour/odour that you could get comfortable with , nor be inclined to spend your hard earned sheckles upon nowadays.

    I'm a bit lost here. Has the Purple one been caught smuggling smack?

    I love it also.

    Because stupidity deserves and gets punished.

    Just like they said.

    Pity the fool who smuggles massive amounts of H through Asia?

    Nuh.

    I'm pretty liberal in my views generally,but the death penalty is a valid option for elected governments to apply.

    I would firmly disagree if this punishment was to be handed out by a Theocracy though.

    Sharia or Isis or whoever these rags are deserve it equally because I find them distasteful.

    They destroy antiquities several thousand years older than their religion.

    Antiquities that predate their camel worship.

    I can handle idiots murdering each other in the name of religion.

    But spare the friggin museums.

    Sorry to digress.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?
