I could think of another less polite word than bloodied but rhymes with rugged.

Very good article.

Conveniently written the week we're playing Port, the old pump up our tires and then watch us self deflate trick.

Lets not fall for that and smash Port this weekend!

I'd go the other way and say he's protecting his beloved Port if we do knock them off. He's reminding the Port crazies that if they do lose, it's not the end of the world.

Man I hate how its either:   "DEE-plorable" Pathetic dees etc

or they'll win a flag.

how about just report how it is.   we were shocking, we are now an OK, decent, average team with potential. guess that doesnt sell 'clicks' on a website

I still remember vidily Brucey saying:  "Oooh these Demons are going to be Something!"  back in ~2010.  well no, we were not 

It's a bit like Demonland commentary really.

Thanks hells bells. Really appreciate it. Good read too.

 

Isn't it nice to see so many positive articles after so long being the butt of jokes?

Perhaps we could start our own coterie group and call it Grumpy Old Men.  My grandkids don't call me pa or granddad.  They prefer to refer to me simply as grumps.

Most sides would've beaten us last week. We were ordinary and this is a media beat up of the highest order.

 

I've noticed your penchant for hyperbole.

We weren't at our best and still won by ten goals.

Probably adding to the evidence that we have a strong young team list than taking away from it.

But i would agree that we are a footy team that is in transition from "ok" to "good" and there are a lot more steps from here to a flag.

Like others I would prefer that the lid stayed on for a while.

That's what the media do, it's their job, unfortunately.

Let go of the constant negativity and enjoy the sunshine of a 10 goal win while it lasts.

I'm off to Hong Kong for the weekend tomorrow. Catching up with my son to watch the game - if we can find a bar that screens AFL. Maybe I'll buy a couple of nice glasses and a fresh bottle of something good at the duty free on the way back.

Go Dees!

Glenlivet was on special at Melb Duty Free last week, bought a couple, very nice. Nadura 16yo and a Single Cask 20yo.

I seriously doubt the MCG is big enough to hold us all iv'a.

But a sterling idea.

Smoking jackets with elbow patches and crystal glass in hand.

That sounds like the correct attire I can just see us all on GF day !

 

Surely you mean blazers, OD ....?☺

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
