This is very welcome news, especially for those who might have doubted his dedication. He may not play a game for us, but it seems he is not going to die wondering.

Onya bloke.

    Well played. He is having a deadly serious crack at his last chance. 
    Can’t do any more than that.

    They truly will be golden calves if they fully recover.

    Daisy, could you also include the missing OT reference for this quotation? Book, chapter and verses, so we may make the appropriate inclusions to our holiday reading lists ... Thanks in advance TC.

    TPF39, the festive season in your hood has clearly returned to its pagan origins, although it appears more sodom and gomorrah than yuletide!

    That's good news, I'm sure it must've been a difficult decision but it shows his dedication. I hope he and his family have some good people to be around in the break period.

    Good news.... & given he's had more opportunities than most other players, we shouldn't expect anything less from the player & the club.

    Thank you DJ, that has clarified matters considerably. Unless there is a MFC premiership in the New Year offerings (or next), it may well be that any future scholarly research, will only be able to find brief references to demon flags in the Red Sea scrolls or other archaic sources.  Meanwhile we await with hope that  a new chapter will be written in the NEV.

    That is a good decision considering the issues stem a lot from what occurs around the old stomping ground

    I reckon ( Hope) Pray he can return to Senior Footy. If he does ( and Im growing more optimistic by the day,) this for him and us will be a stellar result!?

    Is this Uncle Bitter, in full ceremonial outfit being carried by his loving subjects across the manor Moat to yet another feast and opportunities beffiting a great man of his unique pulling power of the masses and not forgetting the fair ladies that reside in Romsey??

    I know as the saying goes that you make your own, but surely we are due a bit of luck for something to turn out all right for once.

    I am hoping Harley Bennell gets some luck his way.

     

    He has a huge amount of talent and just needs to get through pre-season injury free.

     

    He can do this if he listens to the medical staff and doesn't over exert himself. Let his body slowly build up steadily.

     

    I like the suggestion of Harley Bennell trying out Yoga to help his posture. It's definitely worth a try at least.

     

     

    I genuinely wish Harley Bennell all the very best and hope he can get the chance to run out onto the MCG to play for the Demons.

    Bubona is the Roman cow Goddess who watches over and protects cattle.

    Does she protect calves too?

     

    Seriously though, this seems to be an indicator of his desire to leave no stone unturned - IF the fatted (or unfettered) calf comes to fruition then we could have unearthed a gem at little cost.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
