Unfortunately I won't get a chance to listen as I've family obligations but I'd be very interested to hear his views on targetting either Sloane or Gaff as FA this year.  Who would he choose (assuming we could get either) on the assumption we could afford them. Or is there someone else he'd look at?

    Good question but unfortunately we interviewed Roosy yesterday in order to accommodate for his busy schedule. We will be airing that interview tonight prior to our discussion of the Queens birthday game.

    The interview as well as the full podcast will be available from tonight after the podcast airs.

    Subscribe to us on iTunes or stream it on Soundcloud. The interview itself will also be posted to YouTube.

    Good work DL. How did the interview go? Great i would expect. Hopefully supermercado got some nice stats in. 

    Looking at the tiles of the podcasts it is really impressive library of interviews you are building

    It is 1 hour of awesomeness from Roosy.

    @Supermercado was great too. I was above average at best.

    From Roosy? Or us after the interview?

    A little from Roosy. Mostly talked about his time at the Dees with spill over to current day. No spoilers. You'll have to listen.

    We'll talk about the Pies game after the interview.

    If anyone would like to join the discussion about the QB game or any other issues then call: 03 9016 3666 or Skype: Demonland31.

    I think next week we'll give our mid year review perhaps doing a player by player review before looking at our one and only Friday night game of the Home and Away season.

    Sorry about the half an hour delay. Don't know why my program that streams the show live just wouldn't connect. I was going to delete and redownload the program straight away but didn't and that seem to do the trick. Lucky we didn't have Roosy waiting on the line. That would have been embarrassing.

    Just discovered the podcasts and I’m blown away Demonland!

    Great questions and responses. Good journalism IMHO

    When Roosie said his biggest legacy is seeing kids turn up with Mel FC tops at QB I went to tears! My 6 yo girl wears her Demon stuff to school, my 11yo boy hats footy.

    BTW

    Did anyone else notice that Roosie referred to Melbourne as “us” on multiple occasions?

    That was not lost on me and for me personally it was the perfect answer to his legacy question and not just for the kids.

    Roosy was great and very diplomatically hinted that it was time to cease the NT arrangements

    As many have said I can reluctantly live with the game in the Centre but Darwin has to go.

    In fact I could learn to like the game in Alice... This year demonstrated that with work it can be made into a showcase game.

    Takes to much energy out of the side. 

    Top 4 sides wouldn’t go near it, which is why it was thrown to us.

    Wonderful insight and a fantastic interview.

    Loved every minute of it, one of the things that stood out were the comments about Grimes and Trengove. High praise for both of them even though it didn’t work out in the end for both of them. 

    “Lunacy” used to describe their appointment as co-captains at such a young age.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
