Trevor Marmalade, Sam before he became the old man yelling at cloud (and when it was still cool to be a sexist old flog), and it being the quickest way to find out who was in the team are my memories of TFS. Don’t reckon I’ve watched an episode since the early 2000s at best.

Some years ago I knew a girl who attended the same high school as Jacko. She told me he was exactly the same at school as we saw him playing football and the way he spoke in public. No way did he put on an act. That was his true self. (According to her).

He was certainly a character...  & really,  I'm glad he started his career with us.

I think we should celebrate that fact,  and one of the biggest characters in the game.

I stopped watching the same time The Ox copped a cream pie in the face. 

That was a turning point for the footy show and it said clearly,  that it was about media players,  and not about Footy.

Sam took two tumbles at the same time,  in that show...  one was witnessed...  and one was on a parallel universe...  the subconscious universe of respect lost.

All downhill sailing,  from that point.

A Peter-Hillier-esque level of comedy but was all eyes when teams were named.

Short of seeing a premiership, I think Wacko Jacko's handstand protest after remenstrating with goal ump is my greatest footballing witnessed moment - was anyone else there?

The Footy Show died with Gary Lyon's departure in my opinion. All down hill since then.

They kept the show treading water with Gazza, but only just. 

It was just Sams mirror,  me,  me,  me,  me.  and so on... .  geez that bloke has stooged Ch-9  for  $quillion$.

 

I'm just glad its over,  now maybe footy can make a comeback.

Lets get rid of  Gillnet McL...

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
