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

Cant get the story up, no matter what I try.

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?

Pm'd you mate if someone hasn't already

If you are having trouble reading it click this link and then read the first story that pops up, I don't think there's a way to directly link to it.

Do we really think that Warren Tredrea is doing anything other than looking after Port in writing this puff piece on his team's next opponent?

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.

To the Geriatricity Ladder, please, Iv'a (@T$/B$) ('Tis the Coterie in the making? Clink!)

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 !
