Would be a nice way to end the year if we could pay half-decent football and knock off the Etihad hoodoo. Get to 7 wins, go past the 'everything's wonderful' St Kilda on the ladder.

If we kick more than 0 goals in the first quarter, we might be a chance.

It possibly might have escaped you but Voldemort hasn't been playing for several weeks and won't be playing on Sunday.

It might be worth going however, to see whether there are any GWS players out there worth picking up in the trades. With the Giants signing on many of their young guns and still having the burden of the Voldemort $1m a year wage bill, they might be happy to swap some players during the trade period. We have a few prima donnas who might be comfortable going there.

take a couple a spare jumpers, will you, please Jack... we'll foot the bill, & a one way ticket to Melbourne, from sidknee's west?

sadly that would be the ONLY interest...to see who we might be able to kidnap....for surely NO ONE could be now interested in coming to us..the rabble we are

If we can snare someone...the magician who does such much be awarded " snake oil salesman of the century "

Going because Michael and Ralph have gone to a lot of effort inproviding proper reciprocal facilities for premium members at Etihad for this game.

Also it's Fathers Day.....lets all be miserable together.

Your sense of humour is positively knee-slapping Stuie.

The club should grab you as entertainment for the players' Mad Monday celebrations.

They could take a leaf out of the StKilda play book and light him on fire

Yeah, as a bad taste stripper.

You're no comedian Stuie but you certainly make me laugh.

Great thread guys.

Abandoned by my family decades ago......I'll go...drag my sad tired old body down the lonely concrete cave ...footsteps echoing in the eerie silence, tumbleweeds blowing by, doing my best to keep my chin up.....no no I can't go on....ahhh etc etc. It is just as well that they have closed level 3 because I was planning to ....JUMP! Now I will sit stoically on level one....but I will sit with my back to the game as a PROTEST!

Bob I am not sure that will be that easy, to sit facing backwards I mean at Ethihad. Anyway I will keep an eye out and say hello when I see you. Keep your chin up, there is always next season.

Thanks Earl....there might be bits where I'll want to know what's happened.......it would be good to have someone be able to tell me....you know like......" oh he kicked it into the man on the mark from the kick out "...or "he fell over when he tried to kick it."..etc etc

If only I had listened to my father all those years ago. He told me in 1959 that following Melbourne would just be a vale of tears. But I called him an old fool......said that we were a superpower ...that we would go on forever.....forever...! Now..what's left...just a big pile of scarfs....and they're still giving us new ones! Now I know it's all my fault....all of us....the coach has spoken.....our saviour.....Paul Roos , who art in heaven give us this day our daily excuse and forgive us our negativity as we forgive those who trespass and receive the full $5000 fine. Lead us not into sarcasm for thine is the kingdom the power and the glory of the mighty demons forever and ever............

Clearly action is needed. Why doesn't the club get serious and get a real medium, find Norm Smith and APOLOGISE!! Say we're sorry Norm....please we've had enough......it's got to be the whole board, on their knees.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
