Yep saw him on podcast the other day and ch 9 re keeping blockbusters next year? This is the sort of disrespectful comment that f$&ks this club bloke works his [censored] off for this Club.  Why don’t you seek him out and ask? You are probably scared of your own shadow I suspect Go Dees

btw you should talk to administrators they’ll find you a mate

Well someone just got highly triggered, and kickers in a knot ? I've actually had the privilege of meeting Glenn. Really warm guy.

By the way I really was asking for a mate??

The truth is there is no virus, or very week, in Victoria there are 127 active cases, only a hand full are in hospital, and only 2 in ICU,

I work in abattoirs, person at my work knows many at Cedar meats, out of all the postive test, no one went to hospital, no one had more then a small cold, we live in a nanny state. Say goodbye to freedom, this is the start of the nanny state, they are setting the bar low for lockdowns, be prepared for lockdown every few years, flu kill way more then 100 people every year, that's right over 7400 cases only 100 death, average age 77, sorry to say people die, the price to pay  to save everyone is your freedom 

Except Covid is now the biggest global killer this year.  Please feel free to lick people’s faces or whatever freedom looks like to you.

I do think we got an advantage,  being able to have a full-scale practice match on the  'G'

But is a intra club match conditioning the same as a real match on a 2pm Saturday?

It could go either. We are a bit more fresher in the legs, or we just simply lack good conditioning match fitness.

I suppose time will time against the catters.. eek.

One big advantage is for the players who were not selected for the don's game as they got a 20 v 20 game under their belt, which according to Ben Matthews on the zoom members meeting tonight was 4  x 20 minute quarters

You actually edited this post for clarity?!

Even worse comment if you have met the Pres btw as a woman I don’t appreciate the sexist “knickers in a knot” comment 

Administrators please deal with this rubbish - it is the 21st century!

Also, 4.2 million deaths annually from air pollution... which ironically dropped during lockdown for CoVID.

weird world, and even weirder footy forum thread.

So what are your thoughts on 17,500 people dying in New York City alone?

The reason we are nowhere near that is due to the actions that have been taken

Two points,

1. Wasn't aware you were a woman. When I see the name 'Jack Russell', I would and many other would have though that. So I do apologise for that remark.

2. I've seen some of your work. You'll berate anyone that has an opposite opinion, or might have a construction football opinion regarding the board, right down to the playing playing list. And no its not a "worse" comment just because I've met the bloke. The fact you kicked up a big hissy fit over that comment, says more about you.

P.s If you cannot handle some of the constructive debate that goes on in here then it's best you leave, otherwise you're in for world of pain.

I will leave it at that as I do not want this thread derailed any further. Have further concerns, pm me.

I think you’re speaking for yourself why don’t you go to an AGM or Chairman’s and say that Bartlett would probably knock you out!!!

go figure how someone like Lucifer can say Bartlett agreed to it - if you have the evidence put it up or I suggest shut the f$&k up (see earlier advice)

Seriously - how stupid you all are

Quite aggressive and rude for someone who is so easily offended themselves.

I think that they are holding back on our game as they are expecting others to also be postponed during the season. The AFL could then organise a bye/makeup round for all postponed games. 

Have they thought about how this would work if one team is impacted twice (or more)??

So, McKenna now testing NEGATIVE to the virus!!  So, does that mean they stuffed up the original testing, and the game could have (should have) been played after all??!!!!!

Gravity is also a big hoax, designed to stop the people from rising up.

Try the fish, i'm here all week.

Love your work demonstone. You have similar posting strategy to my my dad joke strategy - fire off as many as possible and by weight of numbers some will hit their target and get a laugh. This one gave me chuckle

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
