Apparently Tex is going in for surgery...

Word has it they're scouting around for another half a brain !!

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.

    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...

    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. 

    Tex has made himself look silly

    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

    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.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
