BB had been warned multiple times not to bypass the profanity filter. Perhaps that rule will sink in over his holiday. 

The filter is there for a reason yet BB continually felt the need to show everyone the exact curse word he wanted to use. 

That is your right as owners/ controllers of Demonland.

I know you are very controversial at times OD but I never took you as being so provocative it would result in BB getting banned!!

Not sure what to make of that RN.

2019 is a strange throw back year.

The MFC seems to have regressed back to the bad old days both on and off the field.

Oh well it is not as though it is a new experience.

There is always next year.

an advocate for getting rid of Hogan.

We did do the correct thing in this.

Unfortunately Hogan was not the answer,  for Us.   We will come out of all this,  a stronger team and club.

Anyone can see now,  that even with Hogan playing with us as he did last season,  we would be nowhere near the top eight,  with so many players down and injured,  or NQR in fitness.

All of our players including Gawn have been off in form early this season.

We need this Gap season to refresh our list...  and add to it.

I think a topic is dead when Nazis, Hitler or Eddie McGuire is mentioned. EG, Some posters are like Hitler and they think Eddie is a Nazi.

That should do it!

If that where the criteria Mr. Shadow most threads would be closed after two pages.

I’ve said in other posts I have a cousin who played at GC in same era and he was told he knew what he was doing and given no training program.

Hey Wrecker - I'm struggling to comprehend this post. Can you rephrase and switch out some of the pronouns? Or just like if my assumption is correct: I’ve said in other posts I have a cousin who played at GC in same era and May was told by the MFC that May knew what May was doing as a professional footballer and given no training program by Melbourne?

His Cousin played for GC and was told (I’m guessing during the off-season) that he knew what he was doing and he didn’t need a training program given to/created for him (whilst it was off-season). This is how I read it.

Thanks for highlighting my deficiencies in English. My spoken language.

My cousin played for GC with May. I see my cousin a few times a year and every Christmas Day. A couple of years ago when he moved from another club to GC, he told me on Christmas day, (over a few beers! that he had been told by GC to just continue what he was doing. The GC had no program for him. My cousin was professional the Gold Coast weren’t.

That this is a ‘breaking story’ is the stuff of Working Dog’s Frontline television series. It seems pretty clear it was not actually ‘a big drinking session’ as claimed by Tom Morris on OTC.

I reckon Steven May will turn out to be a bloody good player for us. And this is not a big deal, albeit it is an issue that the club seems not to have not handled particularly well.

It all points to a quiet news day in Melbourne on Monday.

 

I loved Frontline. There should be another series done now. There would be an overflow of good material to choose from. The culture of media is getting out of hand. Some people with a phone in their hand think they have a right to spy and report on anyone who is in the public eye, no matter how far down the "celebrity" chain they are.

A few losses and Mr president of the mfcss old dee says we are doing bad of field. How are we worse off field then last year?

Sorry to be the odd one out MR but I actually like Eddie, pity we did not have someone similar for the last decade.

I agree, when you’re hated by the opposition ( including myself) it means you’re doing something right

Yes look at the hate for Hawthorn, I would love to be hated that much with all those flags over the last 50 years. Remind me how many have we won in that period?

Ditto.  Eddie occasionally blubbers on a little and puts the odd foot in it but mostly rolls ok and has good intentions IMO.  Some just talk the talk (yes Eddie does that with aplomb) but Eddie walks the walk.

Speaking of drinking sessions, thought this might lighten the mood a little...

Brilliant. Deep, concerned, focussed conversations. Absolute mutual respect maintained. Good to see blokes having an exchange at this level of thoughtful communication. Thanks, Beetle. 

When even the 'Nosy Vicar' of the AFL, Damien Barrett, says an behaviour incident is being blown out of proportion, you know there's not much to see.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
