The consensus amongst commentators (apart from that stroker Duh-Wayne) is that the MFC have the most promising set of youngsters.

I reckon Jesse knows this too.

Don't know about that mate, extremely bold statement!

The consensus among comentators? it would go something like this IMO:

1. GWS

2. Gold Coast

3. Western Bulldogs

4. St Kilda

5. Melbourne

lol, it's not what i believe. Just the impression I've got from listening to people in the media.

You've made my day Bub.

Heard from the axiomatic 'reliable source' that Roosy is currently walking around with a smile he just can't wipe of his face. Apparently he is pretty chuffed at landing another 'big fish', which will be announced when the time is right.

I just hope my 'reliable source' is correct.

You have just raised the expectations of all demonlanders. I was getting depressed over the silence at Melbourne. Now I am excited. If this is a rumour and not fact, you will be tracked down and shot at dawn or slowly tortured.

We beat 3 of those sides and lost to the other by 2 points.

Apart from the Dogs, there's not a great deal in it.

I was merely suggestinv how foolish the media are. Not having a go at yoyrself.

My point is simply...the dynamics of lists now as compared to final lodgement can be quite different.

Ours will be :)

Do I get a last wish?

Of course you do ivá. Given the consequences of a wrong prediction, your last wish is obvious I would have thought. Perhaps Roosy was smiling with the thought of getting away from Melbourne and landing the big fish in the waters off Hawaii. Of course if your prediction is right, you will go from martyr to hero straight away.

Not my prediction Ernest. It comes from my 'reliable source'

i'va, you mentioned earlier the 'big fish' player responsible for Roos' 'cheshire cat' type smile will be revealed when the time is right.

Can you tell us roughly when that will be...the anticipation is killing me!

Can't be sure on that one LH, but I would think sometime after the Granny is done and dusted.

Thanks iv'a...does that mean he is be playing this weekend :rolleyes:...rhetorical question!

Whoever it is we are doing a damn good job of keeping it quiet!

BTW I did hesitate posing that rhetorical question for fear it will set all the DL's player wishes off the scale.

Then I thought 'what the heck' it gives people a new line of speculation for the next few weeks!

I once predicted the fall of the Roman Empire. Seriously, I have no information other than what my snout gave me. That's all.

on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being 'Paul Roos' and 1 being 'some random down at the pub' what score would you give your source? :D

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    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
