I can forgive Jake Stringer for his past indiscretions however will never forgive him for that haircut. Seriously, that should be an offence.

All class, a perfect fit for the Bombers!

Notice how the media is again all over the Bombers with good news stories. Also the Tigers.  

You wonder "who pays the Piper."

 

EFC: welcome to Essendon, Jake. We do things a little differently here. Get these ... er ... "dietary supplements" into you.

Jake: duh .... supper? suppel ... duh ... what for I eat dial supper?

EFC: don't worry about the details, mate. It'll put hair on your chest.

Jake: duh ... okay

Man.    I thought that tattoo was the worst thing I'd ever seen,  only to scroll down and see the haircut.....

Hes off the rails.

Our club picking up Lever rather than this tool showcases why we will get a premiership before those muppets

Nothing article. I say good luck to the guy - he was a decent player and, I think, a decent person.

GetSwift’s corporate governance perhaps needs to improve, but there doesn’t seem to be any suggestion of impropriety here.

But then again...

Poor old Joel, down to his last $40 million!

It's uncanny how companies with phantom clients and phantom income end up getting into strife.

I read Joel McDonald’s player profile one year in a footy record where he said his idol was Jordan Belfort.

Grimes is a hack. 

Sorry but I'm still bitter about us recruiting Joel MacDonald over Dylan Grimes. Just cannot get over it. Add that to Paul Roos saying that Toby Green & Shaun Higgins were available to us for loose change a few years ago - what might have been !!???

Had a chat with Barry Prendergast about Grimes.  Was never in consideration for us to draft him.  Not talented enough to make it in the AFL.

Some positive news for Joel's company Getswift (from the Age 22/5/2020: 
https://www.theage.com.au/business/companies/former-afl-player-s-getswift-makes-comeback-with-revenue-boost-20200513-p54sfp.htm

"The gyrations of Australia's tech stocks over recent months has hidden a remarkable comeback by one of its former darlings, last-mile logistics provider Getswift.

The stock has soared to a multi-year high of 90¢ this month. This is the highest it has traded since the disastrous share price crash in February 2018 which followed the company's confirmation that fewer than half the contracts it had been publicising were actually generating any revenue.

The 500 per cent gain since May last year represents a remarkable comeback for the company which was started by former AFL footballer Joel Macdonald to work out the best routes for his booze delivery service...."

 

Needs to show that they have legitimate contracts and revenue. Have some cash reserves, bit still yet to nail it's core business, which is last mile delivery logistics for businesses like food and beverage, such as Pizza Hut 

Given the COVID-caused explosion of home delivery in every Western country, I'm suprised Getswift aren't thriving and are only showing moderate success.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
