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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
