If

the AFL was worried before the Demons' presentation to the commission on Tuesday ...

then

it is even more worried now. And unlike the Suns, it won't be offering priority national draft assistance.

 

Anyone care to take a guess what he's talking about. Why are we back to being a basket case in the space of 12 months?

I read it and I thought; "WTF is that supposed to mean?"

The won’t be offering priority national draft assistance gets me, what’s Purple on about?

Did we disclose that half the team wants out or something? 

Pretty easy, aging list, no superstars or few coming through, on field, sale of pokies, revenue comes from?, a coach that is useless, a head of FD that has more lives than a cat, near certainty to lose thousands of members next year..........


Barrett is a tool. His grasp of the English language is limited and his intellect is worse. He just likes the sound of his own voice.

Ageing list?


Only guessing, but there's plenty of rumours around about big name players requesting trades. So that, potentially combined with the terrible financial forecast for this year could have painted a pretty bleak picture.

This is a rubbish . There is no truth to this article. This is more reflective of the clabrre of the journalist than the facts.

Lewis, Jones, Hibberd, Jetta, May, all not getting any younger then you have the bottom tier which are VFL players. If we end up being 5 years away, it is relevant, then you have Gawn 28, how long can he be the battering ram? I'm willing to give them a good pre season under a new regime but there are certainly many red flags, especially if key players want out.

Seriously - how stupid you all are. Why woudl be believe what some oen writes. One with logic woudl ask how would a jurno know the detsils of a confidential meeting that had nothing to do with what he is writting about. Wake people

AFL House leaks like a sieve!  Barrett is an AFL employee.  Join the dots.


There's a facebook parody page called 'If Damien Barrent said this then', this could have seriously come from that. He's a massive [censored] which is why there a re very few clubs who actually talk to him, so he makes most things up. 

He has always hated us, but kissed our [censored] last year. Back to hating us again. He is a Norf supporter which says a lot.

Journos constantly make up stuff and get away with it.

Only a week or so ago the rumours were Coniglio was leaving for the Blues, then all of a sudden he signs a 7 year deal to stay at GWS.

The fact is they have no idea and use words like 'alleged' or 'according to sources' to make up stuff and put it in an article.

They are leaches.

This doesn't bode well, I'm anticipating a big name such as a Petracca or a Brayshaw to be requesting a trade 

Already have a bad sense about Hunt as well

Of course the AFL are furious ... the Demons are playing the wrong code... The players drafted, the coaching and style of play is more suited to Rugby League.. NO wonder the injuries piled up.

Barrett has only provided a launch pad of a “I told ya’s so” here if anything does come up. 

It’s just a nothing comment in his ridiculously immature weekly dribble. 

No Anzac eve, no Queens birthday, no pokies, particularity poor attendance in the run home. I suspect that will equate to a massive financial loss. If I was the AFL commission I'd be worried about that too.

May be so but fair chance he has been 'briefed' by someone at the AFL on what our problems are.

 

WOW - people falling for this [censored]'s tricks! he says vague BS to start people panicing and thinking up what could be wrong.  he is often found to be incorrect and there are zero consequences when it happens.

either say something concrete Barrett or [censored] off!

Usual cycle happening here...

Dees are terrible.

Dees fans complain they're terrible.

Journo says Dees are terrible.

Dees fans turn on journo.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
