He’s getting a reputation as a sensationalist.

I’m surprised he hasn’t got North Melbourne and Brisbane in his top 4.

Most of the new boys (ex footballers) on the block seem to be taking this route. It's how you get noticed and sometimes it works wonders for your career to be the one that people love to hate.

Looking for a headline.

We allow too many teams to score long runs of goals against us to finish in top spot.

Would require many of our youngsters to establish themselves as stars. Don't believe we are there yet.

Cant see this happening, however if we come close the post game match day threads will involve consuming a lot of bath water.

And Joe boy will still cane Dom in the three word analysis, which will give me comfort that the earth is still spinning in the right direction.

If his comments were for the ladder after the Bye he may be on the money.

Our draw means we should be 10-2 when we turn for the second half of the season, with my money on us finishing with 16 wins +/- 3 wins, so Cornesy could have pulled a smokey.

Shut up, Kane. Haha.

Rohan Connelly's prediction is the sweet spot. Top 4. That should be our aspiration. Finishing top of the ladder is too much pressure.

Kane is trying to take pressure off Port.

Would love to see it happen, but we have a long way to go before that becomes a reality.

Injuries permitting, we're top 4 this year.

We have a really well balanced list with depth.

From a top 4 position in September, anything can happen. It's all about momentum.

Good onya Kane. Possibly a sensationalist prediction but I'm happy to wear that - it's infinitely better than reading that we'll finish 9th, or last, as has been the case in virtually every other season in living memory.

You would not believe how good life was when the Demons were on top and were unshakeable. Those were wonderful living memories.

Spinning? I read some ground breaking scientific paper a few days ago that the earth is flat after all these years

Yep. Apart from the birth of my children my most cherished memories are of seeing the 56, 57, 60 and 64 flags. I went home very unhappy in 58.

Oh to once again go to the footy expecting to win and rarely being disappointed.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
