Cool. I thought that was a quote from said Movie!! :)

I saw it at the flicks when it came out in 1979. Walked home pretending I was a cool gang member.

I get angrier about it every week that passes Dazzle, wanted him gone at the end of last season and we give him 3 years, FMD

Me too i wanted him traded.. Up there with Terlich as the worst list management going around.

Mahoney needs to have a good hard look at himself.

That miss from Pattison 10 meters out was disgraceful, would of been game over if he kicked it

I just caught the last few minutes of the game on tv, I wish I hadn't, shocking basic errors from Trengove and Pedo. ?

It was. The film is called The Warriors. Apparently the young fellas who made captain america are making a tv mini series on it. Risky taking on a cult classic

Daniel Breese was delisted about 15 years ago - highly rated but I don't think ever played a game..

You criticize Plod on here, and you will be fending off the wolves all afternoon.

 

There is no way trenners will be delisted this year. The club hasn't  invested all this time in his rehab to let him go

In my defence, I never said he would be, did I?

 

Wouldn't surprise me at all if he was though, as I firmly believe he is too slow to be kept on the list.

The seniors are shot, so time to play the kids. ANB needs to be selected and given a few games to see how he fares (ala Harmes 2015). Clearly in our best again in the vfl, and needs a chance to show what he is capable of.

Hard to know what to make of some of those numbers. Bugg 15 possessions isn't great, but he topped the tackles with 11. Trengove and Oliver good all-round games it seems. ANB a lot of possessions, but wonder what happened to them.

Unfortunately l only followed the first twenty minutes on Demonland (where we established a nice lead kicking with the gale) and then managed to locate a television at the end end of the last quarter when we had an unassailable lead. It was 'vintage Melbourne' as we "snatched defeat from the jaws of victory"!

article in hun says he had 22 possessions, so not quite sure which is correct.

Neal-Bullen racks it up at this level and some will call for his inclusion, but I just don't rate the guy.  He often makes ordinary decisions and his disposal in close is poor.

Neal-Bullen needs to develop some serious tricks to make it AFL level. At the moment he is just a mid-sized plodder with average skills and and average level of competitiveness. If he can't become a Viney / Oliver-style animal at the contest, he is going to have to improve his skills by both hand and foot by 100%. If he starts hitting the scoreboard at Casey you could potentially see him taking Kennedy's role, but that would be it.

Yeah you guys are right, why would we play a guy who consistently racks up big numbers (37 touches and a goal in a tight game) when the AFL team is going so well...

Let's just keep picking the same guys every week and win our 6-8 games every year and just be happy with that. Rah rah, Go Dees!

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    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

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    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
