Feel free to plug anytime you want. In fact we'd love to have you on the Podcast in the new year to discuss the book and other depressing Dees related stuff.

Thank you, and it would be an honour to tread the same stage as Jako.

    wow what's the point too much negative stuff in the world to depress ones self, why not wait until we make finals so there is a happy ending. Richmond got a writer to write about the 2016 season, but once it looked like a bad year the scraped it, is the book a blame game?

    It's a great read - amazing detail, and has the effect of causing me to re-live various games in toxic detail. Recommended highly

    Has the final chapter been written yet?

    seem a little premature...

    Covers the 2007 - 2016 decade, so either the final chapter is in the sequel or it will be like Star Wars and just keep plodding along forever with no end in sight.

    As for concerns that it will be too negative and you may end up your head in the oven, I can assure you it's all done in the best possible taste.

    Final chapters can be hard to write. I say that in all seriousness. It would have been nice to write about an Elimination Final during 2016. But the story aint over yet...

    i admire you writing about such a dark and chaotic decade

    Indeed it would have, just because it would mean we made one.

    But at the same time I think losing by 20 goals was a fitting farewell to the #fistedforever decade.

    I think the final round of 2017 fitted in brilliantly with the era of #fistedforever.

    Considering $cully will probably tip us out in R23 next year brace yourself for a hat trick.

    A Phantom Menace style entry could be in order.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
