To be fair. David King & Luffy (esp luffy) have been Pro Melbourne all year. Big believers!

Kingy started on us on 360 before last season. When we missed in round 23 last year he was disappointed but flew our flag again and again. He's basically a demons supporter now.

Gerard Whateley's agenda setting is cringeworthy. He created that whole state of the game momentum on AFL360 with that footy forum and his overreaction to Gaff was ridiculous. Needs to pipe down a bit.

Wonder if Gerard is working on a book about Australias greatest ever mare......

The Winx Story.

It was at its worst during the Steve Smith debacle.

Kingy has been Driving the bus for just over a year now, since the win in Adelaide in 2017.

In the pre-season diatribe he was very subtly pushing our case. I got the feeling he didn't want to have to argue the point, as he knew people would scoff at him picking a side who's been so disgraceful for so long. But he was using his stats nous, and list build theories to put forward the case that we're a side built for finals. Not a perfect side, but a contested/clearance side.

Has love us for at least 18 months. G'day Kingy, if you're wandering through here. Appreciate the support.

Yeah we do but 24 hours is like a safe zone where I don't even want to think about the next game, team changes, finals aspirations. NOTHING. At some point soon I will but not right now.

Weird feeling. Hated/admired him as a player. Very punchable face.

I find opposition players easy to hate but I alway admired David King. Hard and skilled and strong: a great combination. He'd have looked brilliant in red and blue.

I think I might just have my first. Good suggestion.

Yeah. Bit of Ballantyne to him though. As he says often he wasn't as gifted as his team mates (who was?), so he had to resort to other methods. Back in those days though he was just what we needed. Had that angry little nugget attitude.

He needs a voice coach, to teach him to stop sounding like a whining poodle.

He is a little right wing butt kisser. And his voice [censored] me.

Has got way ahead of himself and his self importance. Can’t listen to him anymore.

I like him to be honest, whilst he can come across a trifle pompous he looks at sport differently to many of his contemporaries.

Loves the sound of his voice (which ironically is freaking annoying) way too much. I’ve switched off.

Kane Cornes is better and that’s a pretty low bar to set

    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. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    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.
