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: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
