Brad Scot thinks we are done with lever going down

How am I going to sleep tonight knowing that Brad Scot thinks this ?

And could we care less what Brad Scot thinks ?

Remind me again, is Brad the likeable Scot.

    I'd like them to stop giving us credit.
     Richmond snuck up on the comp last year and no-one thought they could win it last til the siren went in the prelim.
    We've blown our cover real early, the opposition coaches have plenty of time to turn their attentions to us and we're gonna find out how good this game plan and our execution of it really is.

    It could be worse.

    If you were a Collingwood supporter you would be identified as someone who is not too bright, unemployed and illiterate. Someone with questionable dental hygiene and whose family all have intimate and practical knowledge of the criminal legal system in Victoria. 

    As a Melbourne supporter you get to drive a Range Rover, eat cheese with all your teeth and you have a winter holiday home. 

    But I dont do any of those things.. Maybe I am a Collingwood supporter deep down.

     

    Edit : I do have teeth.

    Frankly I dont give a rat’s clacker what “the media” think (if I fact they do actually think or in some cases are sober enough to think?) or say. 

    And, as another has posted, neither twin is in any way likeable, ranking at about zero  or minutely above on the open ended Goddard scale where BG is  zero.

    Didn't know where to post this but listening to SEN yesterday, David King was talking of the top three teams (West Coast, Richmond AND NORTH). Sorry D.H. but last time I looked at the ladder WE were 3rd and North were 6th. Let your bias go David and talk facts. Always respected his comments but this was stupid. Oh and now we have lost Lever we will go into free fall. And they actually get paid for this sh_t.

    Speaking of snow, I’d like to see this headline after QB. “Pies buried in avalanche after Demon blizzard. Dees schuss away with the 4 points”.

    Just saw AFL360 and they were on about the free kicks to West Coast at home. Currently 96 to 39 and umpires have intimated to Chris Scott that they are influenced by the crowd so the free must be there. Alan Richardson was also complaining about the frees there but not paid to opposing clubs. Robinson said that Fox will chase the AFL up. Haha   Dead end there I feel.

    Someone posted a few years ago at a VFL game where the opposition supporters were sticking it to the Demons fans for being rich etc.

    One of our blokes finally answered back with "Shut up or we'll put your rent up".

    "OLIVER’S HANDS WEAPONS OF MASS DISTRIBUTION"

    This headline in the HS here this evening

     

    Personally I am not phased who writes what about us...however it is lovely when good work is recognised.

    mind you, it was all of about 3 weeks ago that he allegedly handballed too much...tee hee hee

     

    I dont subscribe to the hun, but someone may be able to shed some more light about what the article was saying.

    Who’s worried about us getting ‘credit’ now? Where exactly does people saying nice things rate on the list of what is important?

    Think about this next time you want to whinge about what media think about us.

    All that matters is winning.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • 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.
