Pies home game

You have to pay to get in.

Then will need to sit so high you need oxygen mask

Then freeze your arse off in terrible weather.

Looks like Saturday at home playing Barbies with my Granddaughter for me

Just so long as the team does not play like barby's

I am going to have a shot of tequila every time we butcher the ball, so I expect to be dead by quarter time

Quarter time is a bit of a stretch wattsup.

I would think 10min into the first would suffice!

U betta drink fast.

I'm going to save 1 shot for every Dawes mark over the last 7 rounds, then drink then all at seasons end & drive my kids home.

if your worried, please don't, I'm not on my P's

Couldn't really give a [censored] anymore. If they are not willing to drop players on the back end of some terrible weeks (Dawes) then my care factor is out the window - oh well draft time is only 7 months away

I am not sure I agree with dropping Dawes (only because I am not in a position to comment) But I agree with your sentiments

Can I come?

He's taken 14 marks the last 3 weeks.

Please do drive, but don't take the kids.

So simple, and yet one of the funniest things I have ever read on this site.

60+ point thrashing coming our way.

^^ what he said.

Fortunately I have another engagement - a funeral aka celebration of life - that I think will be far more enjoyable! I hope there's some tequila handy.

And over on the C'wood equivalent of Demonland after their recent string of losses destroying their finals hopes I can just see a despairing supporter posting:

"Demons have gone in tall so naturally we keep x"

12 degrees and rain on Saturday, so forgive me for criticising going in tall with a wildly out-of-form forward in such conditions.

Guess we'll just have to wait and see if your imaginary Collingwood supporter ends up with the egg on his face.

Its been nearly an hour since team announcment and inly 9 replies later.. usually there is alot of activiy and banter.. is it now gotten to the point of the year where some of us just don't care anymore about team selections?

This place has been very quiet and 99% negative this week, unfortunately I think you are right in that it is sympomatic of a supporter group that has had an absolute gutfull with this club. We just didn't need the triple kick in the guts that was the last 3 weeks. Serious worries about the longterm, even shortterm, future. Sigh.

The ultimate punch will occur later this year, as the AFL hand Brisbane first and second round priority picks (citing the overall health of the game nationally being crucial to all 18 clubs).

Clearly the Wobbles aren't looking to exploit whatever got them over the line against us last.

Surely even Roos wouldn't be dumb enough to allow another Oxley situation... right?

Posted

And not forgetting the progressive nature of "Blooding" players for the future!

Look at our emergencies!!

Skills Mc Kenzie, Over the hill Jamar, and Matt be nimble Matt be quick Christ almighty Jones to get perhaps another wasted Kick!!

Sheezus how lame!

Posted

Looking at the Casey team is confusing. They have not named Stretch so maybe a weekend off. But have named VanDenBurg, Harmes and Neal-Bullen in their team. Surely they won't play Saturday and Sunday...

Posted

The interest in the year for me from here on is watching the development of White, Hunt & King.

I hope at least one of them gets a run, White would be the best chance if he can get an upgrade before season end.

Where's Salem? Is it my imagination or has he been off the injury list for the last fortnight? Also Kent was a "test" this week. I know they need to regain match fitness but I haven't heard anything about when they might return .

    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

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    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
