How good was the way Matisse Stynes spoke? At 16 she spoke with poise to a massive audience, she did her dad proud.

She speaks well like her father did.

And to think no other club wanted Dusty last time he was ooc.

We overlooked him on draft night, didn't try to get him a couple of years ago. 

Great.

Yep, remember that.  Roos seemed very keen early then did a severe back pedal.  Someone obviously got into his ear - unfortunately.

We lost to Freo in the last 30 seconds and 2 points.  Freo players got 3,2,1. Really fun)($d system clearly.  

Oliver still unknown to the umps 

Same could be said for West Coast when we beat them.

It's beyond depressing

There is a book written on the Demons last 10 years, is there a full chapter written on Dustin??

She was the best presenter, the rest were quite awkward. A beautiful young lady, Jim would be so proud.

Probably because Oliver was handballing it to them all the time. Can't believe how poorly he polled.

I think the umpires need to get to know him and his style.  It's no coincidence that the better known players tend to poll better and young guys tend to be largely overlooked.

Dusty's awesome, but whey're lucky to have Petracca. He's a similar player.

Are the mark and goal of the year voted on by the public or just the AFL?

The public vote, then the AFL decides who wins...

I am glad Oliver didn't poll as well as he should have. Will be better odds next year. I think Dusty, Kelly, Oliver and Fyfe. Winner probably comes within those 4. The quality of talent around at present is insane. Martin is as good a mid as I've seen, and he should get better. It will take a very special player to beat him next year (Martin is only improving). Oliver, Kelly and Fyfe are all unique talents.

Bruce and Daisy reading the club by club votes. Channel 7 displaying the club vote boards. Gets to hawthorn and then goes straight to North Melbourne. They bumble and then come back to tell Dees board. Pretty obvious that we are considered irrelevant hahha. I mean seriously, no vision all nighy..the lowest votes of any club but Carlton. No vision in the highlights package.

And here I am, only knowing who Matt Priddis is on Brownlow night when he started polling well and i googled him.

Tmac getting 9 votes as a forward. I think that's where he plays now, he just doesn't seem to have it as a defender.

Swan was clearly given free reign to say whatever he felt with the betting company’s account, and attendees felt the brunt of it at times.

You know what Clayton Oliver would be if he wasn’t a footballer? A virgin. #Brownlow

What would Dane Swan be if he wasn't a footballer? Inmate 657.

Not far from the truth, a truth of which most people who think he's a knockabout top block, have either forgotten or are too young to remember:

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
