Give Lewis his 300th game this week and retire him.

Start getting some games into the players

on the fringe in the next 5 weeks to see what we have for next year.

Lewis is not going to play in a Premiership at this Football Club, 300 games well done great career and join the coaching team.

Nice, Sweet, efficient move on to 2019, 2018 a complete waste of everyones time and energy.

Terrible comment. 

We are playing the next 5 weeks to play finals, not worry about next year.

Exactly. We aren't a bottom four side that needs to blood the kids. We had a set back last night but we are still right in the frame to play finals.

Whaaaaat?

Anything other than maximum focus on winning every game is madness. Lewis has had some less than stellar games this year but is overall a pretty good contributor who is in the current best 22, particularly with the injuries we have.

Are people really already sooking their way out of trying for the rest of the year? More comfortable to fail if you just say 'oh, never mind, there was never a chance anyway'? I mean, I'm a pathetic loser myself in most things, but to wish it upon your football club is just bad form.

Not trying to win every game this year would be 'loser mentality'. We have to be better than this now. We may not win enough games to make it this year but we do have the ability if things go right.

In 2019 I will do something I haven’t done before.

put on some decent size bets on demons for the premiership, top4 and top8 and no13 to win the Brownlow.

Forget 2019.    We are going to make the finals this season, and we are going to win a final.

Its going to be glorious.

Watching Footy Classified tonight I nearly fell of my chair when they mentioned the AFL are considering giving out three priority picks this season Carlton, Gold Coast and St Kilda. No words could describe how [censored] I will be if any of them get a priority pick let alone all three.

For real?? St Kilda??? Did they give reasons and what they are basing this on?

From 2012-2017 Saints have won 50 games and we have won 39.

Caro said that the AFL feel the Saints list is in worse shape than Carlton’s. Which to be fair it probably is. But all we were told when we were rubbish was get your culture right put the right people in place you shouldn’t get rewarded for your own mistakes. It’s absolute hypocrisy, but I guess that is the AFL.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
