    Bobby are the Western Demons heading to the Paddington next season for game days or do they have a new venue?

    Sorry my good friend who gave me some free tickets a few years back. I can't help you with your question/. I haven't been to a Western Demons event for a long time. Yes, I am a little ashamed to admit that. Cheers, Ethan.

    I bet you were. I’m on Fairfield, the pub being on the corner of Fairfield and Scarborough Beach Rd. Do you think with two kids under two I ever get there?! I was going to try to get down there next season if the Western Demons still use it as their venue, the kids will be a bit older so should be able to fend for themselves.

    Probably correct demonstone I doubt the gentle nature of most Dees supporters would appreciate this rather coarse brew. Probably more to the taste of the average Pie supporter.

    While I don't know the gentleman in question - other than from his many sordid posts - it doesn't surprise me one little bit Moonie.

    But if you said he usually guzzles chardy with his brie on crackers - now that would have really shocked.

    That would be a stretch too far for our Uncle Bitters. He might look 'fancy', but on the inside he's just a rough, uncouth bogan

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
