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.

    They are both unlikeable, he is the kangaroo one

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
