[censored] this.

So should we. Jesus Christ.

They shouldn't be coming out any more angry than us.

They absolutely annihilated us two years ago by almost 150 points.

We should be licking our lips at the chance of giving it back to them whilst they're down and out.

We owe them.

Totally agree. Let's see it as an opportunity to feast on a drug addled carcass.

hope Hird doesn't get sacked this week

Why should they even consider sacking him?

Are you a media propagandist?

He is doing a fantastic job.

It has come up numerous times but do we seriously think letting Howe dish up such poor performances week in week out really assists his trade value more than dropping him? Are other clubs really that stupid?

Richmond almost traded pick 12 for an injured Trengove, and were only lucky that he failed a medical at the very last minute.

So my answer is yes, yes they are.

Now my mum said you don't hate anything in the world but sorry mum i hate this club and the majority (not all) of their smug sh*t don't stink supporters who think that it's their supreme right to be cocky and arrogant to other clubs supporters yet are genuinely shocked when people hate their club.

I hate Essendon....hate them. HATE THEM!!!!

Growing up in the area in the 80's 90's 2000's sucked with this black and red machine winning premierships along the way.

God i hate this team so over the past few years when we have beaten them it's the game i want to win every year.

Smash them, crush them next week!!! Destroy them!!!!!

I'm holding my breath as I type this, but.... Fitzpatrick? I don't know how you fit him in to the side as another tall, but he could handle Daniher in terms of height, size and speed.

Fork Fitzy, not required and not good enough!! back our mids to starve supply and tell Dunny or Garland its down to them!

You think clubs will trade higher for him if he plays in our side and dishes up rubbish like that than if we put him to Casey?

Well, the reigning premiers took Frawley.

The problem with GWS is their picks are tied up with live Academy selections. They'll need to trade out players for more first rounders and trade us that.

That said, if GWS can afford $700k in their salary cap for Howe, that's mindbogglingly poor list management. Although this is the club paying Scully $1M a year, so it fits with that logic.

If we can towel up Essendon next week, I get the feeling that that will be the result that sees Herd out of the building. God I hope we do it!

I actually think we will destroy the druggies. They have lost hope and are mentally shot, they are going through the motions now. If we come out hard and with the right team I'm tipping a good 60+ thumping

umm yes, and Danaiher is 201cms

So if you are looking for a match up, there you go.

Dunn played on and destroyed Hawkins who is 197cm and 101kgs two weeks ago.

Don't think Danher's size would worry him....

St. Kilda beat them by 110 points yet you are only predicting 60+.

Where is your ambition man?

In - Terlich, McKenzie

Out- M Jones, Bail

Expecting a light week on the track so the boys can freshen up, Matt Jones may stay in because we are playing the Bombers who can be exposed for run but IMO should be dropped, Spencer will be dropped due to match ups

Jetta Dunn Garland

Lumumba TMAC Cross

Stretch Viney Vince

Watts Dawes Brayshaw

Garlett Hogan JKH

Gawn, N.Jones, Tyson

I/C:Toumpas, ANB, Grimes & Howe

Emergencies: Newton, Michie & Fitzpatrick

Out:Spencer, Bail & M Jones

Ins:Lumumba, JKH & Grimes

I am putting Brayshaw in as I am hoping he is okay and not really sure where Grimes is at with his hand, JKH needs to come in to give Garlett a hand at ground level

We need to drop both Bail & M Jones because when the heat is on they can't cut it. Both dropped easy chest marks because they were bracing themselves for contact. Compare them to Brayshaw yes they both can run, but both are poor kicks. I'm over players that can run but are crap footballers. We have 2 many NQR'S in our squad. We have to delist them ASAP and go for kids who can kick and are smart footballers.

mate, wrong poster. I'm not the one saying it will. I am just informing him that we do have someone of equal height who can play on him.

Sorry yes that quote came out wrong! My bad

Beggars belief doesn't it out with 2 NQR's & in with 2 more. I agree with u we have 2 stop playing guys like M Jones, Bail because they can run & Mckenzie & Terlich because they try hard.

I think you'll find that BPP made that post with his tongue firmly planted in his cheek.

It's a given, Bail & M. Jones & Spencer Brayshaw ( still getting neck spasms he said he must toughen up.)

Fresh Legs JKH, Newton, lumumba & michie.

Howe is safe he should have fresh legs, he didn't use them on Sat.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
