Pity you’ve missed the last decade. In that period, we’ve won 3 flags, made another grand final, and featured in 2 prelims. Missed the 8 only once - bad draw, and horrible run with injuries.

We’ve played truly dynamic football for most of this time. It was quite an incredible 11year period. Without doubt, we’ve been the envy of the competition - other club officials and supporters have been praying for us to collapse on the basis of our remarkable success.

And yet, some here don’t seem to think we a lock for the top 4 in 2020 ...

 

Wow that’s awesome!! How many brownlows have our number 1&2 picks, Scully & Trengove won between them? So happy we didn’t select that good for nothing Dustin Martin kid hey...

Is Cale Morton and that All Australian CHF Lucas Cook kid still playing??

Assume Burgess has been given the first call. His opinion will be critical. 

The Burgess/Bruckner factor looms large as the key to a successful season with getting 95% of our players on the park.

A fit and full list will give depth and run and class plus versatility to the flanks  wings and midfield.

The following are ABSOLUTELY musts in this regard viz. 

Hunt Vberg KK Bennell!! Langdon Tomlinson Petracca Salem Baker Lockhart Harmes Hibberd Jetta Sparrow Jordan Nitschke Wagner boys even Joel Smith Hannan Spargo new boy Haydn Young Jonesy Milkshake oh and  Tommy MAC for a Wing burst at the start of the game!! 

Roll on 2020 the land of the super fit and brave Demons with resurrection on our minds!

And Ron’s been hitting the acid pretty hard. 

Scotch.

And acid of course.

It’s been a great decade.

 

 

If signing Bennell is going to happen at all, is there a chance it'll happen today? Or is there still a lot of water to go under the bridge? A blow up two days ago has fizzled to nothing being reported at all. If he is going to be signed up, it sounds like other clubs have cooled.


His signing doesn't need to be done for ages he's going to be put in the same rookie rule that nabbed us Wagner and Lockhart.

I'm taking that as after effectively 5 years out of the game, a first seemingly successful surgery in July and a second (other leg) a month or so later,  her will be back running in November, taking 6-7 months to slowly ramp to fitness, get some kms in the legs and a block of VFL under his belt. 

I really don't think that is a surprise. 

Imagine the value and spark he could add in the back half of the season coming into finals. 

Finals? You’re dreamin’

That's right, won't be able to play until the next DECADE!!!


We should get a farewell game out of him

Damn you, I didn't know it had got to 50mill again and me not getting a ticket ?. Had to go check the numbers, phew jackpoted to 20 m next week. Accurate as ever Dieter or just lazy?

Neither, just metaphorical.

That's Santa Claus territory, yeah, Christmas is coming too...

With all the noise from Journo’s a few days ago I would’ve expected confirmation by now. Gossage, Ralph, Stevens and the other less well-known tweeters had it all but over the line, a matter of formality. 
Where there’s smoke these blokes just assume there’s fire.

Keep hopping there will be news soon? Or do we have to wait until draft night?

 

Bennell has probably decided to join us but the very professional AFL will make us wait 4 weeks to announce it on draft night for ratings.

Edited by JakovichScissorKick

JT said on the podcast Road to the Draft it would take a while to happen if it does. Lots of checks to be done.

I’ve only seen that mentioned on Demonland and nowhere else. (Unless I’ve missed something)


We definitely look to be considering small forwards in the pre season draft which makes me think they have others they'd like to consider in the draft

That accounts for your rapid mood swings particularly the rapid excitement and bold statements you are famous for. 

Now that could also describe the Donald.

Looking forward to more big statements Ron so kept up the magic cocktail.

I think we will need you in 2020.

What confirmation are you actually looking for?

The latest I read was that he was invited to train with us starting December 3rd?

It's in his best interests to not train with anyone before that date to leave his options open at other clubs and be able to sign as a delisted free agent at any club.

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
