Only in Demonland do I trust . . . and only then with a negroni in one hand and a plastic device of one sort or another in the other.

    Whenever I come across an Essendon fan I always excuse them. It just seems like the compassionate thing to do.

    The club went with the narrative eventually, as it was a legit excuse, but we

    a - didn't want to use it as an excuse in the beginning and

    b - aren't the Bombers, who after the drugs scandal get plenty of love from the media to make up for it.

    I just see them as a team we should dispatch of easily and move on from in 2020.

    Just disappointed we don't meet them twice. Would really like to scar them, (hope I'm not getting too far ahead of ourselves).

    Spare me the violins. The season hasn't even started and the campaign is underway to portray the bombers as underdogs. I suppose we will also get the James Hird deserves another chance at coaching narrative at some stage during the year as well. 

    So sick of hearing the same thing about this team, how we should all feel sympathy for them. Please.

    My hatred of this arrogant club and their supporters cannot be understated.

    When we lost to the Peptides, an Essendon mate of mine was raving about how Essendon had won the draft because Parish was clearly a better pick than Oliver. So, at least we got one back.

    But us losing to the Peptides was rolled gold Demonesque.

    Is that why so many sports journalists are barely literate?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.
