i disagree; he's no daisy but he's better than ling, bartel, or most others

i wonder what crowd this dreamtime game will get given the weather?

amazing how meth coke just keep winning despite not looking good; sure the umpire's helped but they know that they're never out of it

each to their own, but his interviews at the end of games are not even up to Ling or Richo level.  His comments add nothing (in fact, tonight he simply repeated what the main commentators said about the ball dropping short in the wet.)  Zero added value or insight.

and forecasts are notoriously wrong....lol

Actually they are bloody good compared to what they were when many on Demonland were young.  There was a time when the most reliable prediction was tomorrow the same as today.  Fast computers, better models and more input data have made a big difference.

Ling!? I'm sorry but this moron carried on last year down at the cattery after they beat us by a kick as if they had won a granny! I respected Ling as a player but as a commentator, he is a [censored].

Richmond is just simple.

I like McAdam, doesn't get involved with the pathetic immature banter that the likes of Taylor, Hamish and other [censored] themselves over.

Ablett can’t keep his hands down. Nice little jab on Miles’ chin. Let’s see how this plays out.

Miles clearly chin-butted Ablett’s fist. He should cop a week downgraded to a fine along with a written apology to Ablett.

I bet on the tigers to win the wooden spoon over a decade ago, had a fair bit on it as well and with about 6 rounds to go Sportsbet paid out. Tigers ended up winning a few and getting off the bottom.

Sportsbet do it for the publicity. I’m still talking about it.

My guess is Christian will deem it as insufficient force. Nothing to see here. 

Next week, Ablett roundhouse kicks someone’s head off.

Christian will say Miles was staging and practically call him a sook.

No way did it look like 80,000 plus at the G from the TV, a Richmond mate at the game isn’t paying it either. Did they take pre sales into account?

What's up with Ablett, it's like after the first one he's got a taste for it - he's got the bloodlust.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
