I think you have under estimated the size he currently has bb.

Not to mention the humility gland

Give him some slack he can see his team fall apart in front of his eyes, I see a great fall next year, betts is slowing down, they are going soft. He might have something to cry about next year when Sloane leaves as a free agent.

Ever considered changing your avatar to “outlier”?

Or just 'liar'...

 

converted wife into a demon when she was 15 and i was 17...21 years and three junior dees later and all i want now is some fricken success - and i'm talking hawthorn-like twenty year dynasty not some willy nilly one-off fluke premiership - to justify my selection...

(and only really posting this to keep the lever run rate ahead of the watts' innings)

After a 54 year wait DA I will be happy with a fluke flag in 2018

how about we 'settle' (and don'tcha just love that notion) with a fluke flag, and then four in a row two or three years later?

I started following this mob in 1965.  I'll take any sort of flag at all;  it's the only thing left on my bucket list.

Sorry you guys Tex is ok by me, and so is Lever obviously. I reckon Bernie would have thought so too, or else he wouldn't have invited him.

He spat the dummy, who gives a sh##, although they were doomed by the crowd the maggots the media and the ground. If the game had perhaps been played in Adelaide it mightn't have been the same. 

What do people expect him to say and do." I thought we played well but were beaten on the day, pip pip".

The crows need to have a talk to tex because this is getting stupid. 

The crows haven’t achieved anything yet and we are improving consistently every year and loaded with top end talent. If we don’t overtake the crows in 2018 we definitely will in 2019 

jake will have just as much chance if a flag with us in the next three years as at the crows.

my favourite bit was when he talked about all the players crows have brought in from other clubs who basically form the nucleus of their side:
- jenkins
- lynch
- betts (free agency acquisition, no less)
- jacobs

he forgot about seedsman, hampton, cheney and the retiring thompson too...

it really was a 'we want to have our cake and eat it too' moment


Shout out to the mod who added "Walker" after Tex to my post. I would hate that people thought I was talking about Tex Perkins.

On top of aggressively chasing a contracted Bryce Gibbs, Steven Motlop and others. Tex has a loose grasp of reality. Especially considering he’s on a mint himself

He is a SA they are half brains most of them, except Goodwin and any of them that support the MFC, he has made a mistake with watts he looked for a escape goat for not making finals, so why not do what most MFC people do and blame watts

The destination of the Cows post season trip.  I understand they wanted somewhere ‘warm’.....  They were all excited...

We're getting closer. This years 1st rounder and next years 1st rounder for Lever plus pick 18 which Adelaide get for Cameron. Seems like swapping of other picks as well.

This will leave us without a 1st rounder next year, but picks 18 and 27 this year isn't too bad.

so pick 18 for next year's pick 18 means we get jake for just pick 10......and get to use pick 18 a year earlier.....i like it

That’s a very good deal if we can swing that.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
