Happiness, gratitude, enjoy the moment.  Sounds like the Hawks just with a much better list.

We don't have a toenail clipping worth of what Tigers have. Not even a piggy.

This is exactly why certain Veterans should Retire from our list

Ugh yuck. I think if the filth get through tomorrow I may ask Dutton to deport me somewhere. 

Seriously geelong were pathetic in that 2nd half. They just crumbled. Interestingly we didn't see Chris Scott being shown in the box in the final term. But those 2nd quarter misses really hurt them. 

They kicked 1 goal in each of the 3rd and final quarters. This was the team that finished on top. 

Ablett can no longer kicked the ball over 45 metres,  Dahlhaus provided nothing and Danger was not sen in the final term. 

Wonder what Chris Scott will say in his presser. 

GWS please please do us a favour and knock the filth put tomorrow.

Why? 

If Ablett and Harry retire, that won't kill them and they have 8 guaranteed walk up start wins, at their own dung heap. An advantage that no other Vic team has.

When Kelly goes they will get players or high picks.

They have a potential forward star in Esava.

Players seem to want to go there.

I hope you’re right, but Geelong are like herpes, they just won’t go away.

He was brilliant down back in the 2nd half. 

Yep, Houli and Edwards led the second half resurgence; some moments of true brilliance.

He would have left our club years ago. Dusty wouldn't have hung around during our bad periods. 

In fairness Tigers had a pretty poor (mind you not by our standards) few years after he was drafted IIRC.

Because they have a ageing list that will get found out next year.

Houli must be so happy to have left the Bombers before the needles came out.  

A very committed and still improving player.

Our recruiting is very poor..

Tigers have recruited well, Prestia, Caddy, Lynch 

we swap our early pick Tyson, Salem & miss a star like josh Kelly..

I wish it were so, but that bl@@dy team always seems to find some players from under the cow pats in the paddocks down there. 

Bl@@dy farmers.

I was at the match.

It is depressing to think that a team like Richmond, a top 2 side, can top up with Lynch, virtually the best forward in the game. A player like that simply wont come to Melbourne.

And Howe, now an All Australian, walks.

What hope is there?

They're done 'Red'...

Apart from Ablett & Harry,

The end is near for Selwood x 2, Hawkins & Tuohy.

Danger can't run a long campaign carrying the team, didn't/couldn't fire a shot when needed in the 2nd half & a lot of wasted possessions in the first.

Kelly will be a huge loss, kids from the draft won't cover his loss.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
