Hard tag?? Hahahaha! I can definitely tell who knows their footy on this forum with just 1 post. He gave him a hard tag for 1 quarter and this is how you defend that tagging isn't is going out of fashion! So many dumb posts on here!

Opinion is opinion. If you don't like tagging, then fair enough. But don't give me examples that are false and misleading to others that are reading.

If you’re going to attack another poster for being dumb, a tip would be don’t then go and agree with the substance of the post in your own comment.

i didn’t say Kelly was tagged for the whole game, only that Collingwood used a hard tag. Kelly had 1 disposal to quarter time and Collingwood set up their win in the first quarter. It worked.

I’m also not saying Harmes should tag every week but there are certain circumstances where it makes sense. Just because something is going out of fashion doesn’t mean it should be shelved completely.

Anyway, agree to disagree.

So he hasn't signed yet for 4 or 5 years....

Interesting

Fingers crossed ?

I am sure I read earlier in this thread that he signed for 5 years, that poster must have been given some false info, who would of thought.

I'll put my hand up and say I got it wrong.

The same thing happened the first time I thought he had signed, he had been offered a contract and was expected to sign and I either took what I was told the wrong way or was misled somewhat. Either way, my fault, and I'll cop it on the chin.

Still waiting on the same posters that are harassing me for this mistake to say thanks for all the info that's been correct, but I get that's not the 'Demonland way'.

Good on ya for owning up mate.

Personally i love that you share your info and i more than understand info can not always be 100% accurate and situations change.

Regardless i support you posting any rumors you hear.

Goodwin - the only coach that doesn't tag and plays players out of position.

Quality as always.

 

 

That is completely incorrect

Not everything gets posted, some things I message to a few quality posters, too many trolls and psychos get fired up otherwise, as evidenced above.

 

C'mon guys. Let's not turn this to another slinging match. 

Good on you for owning up @Lord Nev . Respect for putting your hand up. Though i hope it doesn't stop you from posting further for the future on here.

Agreed, was going to say respect for owning the post that appears to have been incorrect. Then I get named dropped into the ensuing garbage, seriously.

Jay Clark said on triple M that Viney hasn't given a confirmation to Melbourne whether he's staying or going, but the club are really confident he'll stay.

I think Geelong don't want to pay him more then we are offering, they just expect players to go to Geelong because they are Geelong. On Thursday night the cats played the oldest side in history in a final, the last team to play the oldest team in a final was hawthorn in 2018.

Love your work Wise, but I reckon you’re giving Nev a rough ride. Pretty credible poster imo, not sure why you’re so tough on him. Personally I like hearing info that’s well informed but not fully baked - it’s like getting a progress update and helps you understand the approach the club is taking even if the cards don’t always fall.

Anyway, as you were ?

and they're going to be older next year when they add higgins and potentially goldstein to their list

You do realise i was being sarcastic.

As long as Viney re-signs for 4 or 5 years, who cares when he signs above the line.

We're all nervous until he does that. 

Could be worse - some of the rubbish posted on Demons fb groups is out of this world!

Come on mate no need to cry , he didn't even mention you.

I'm sure you've broken some good stuff here, I've personally never seen it but I'm sure it's happened.

You must have an awesome life if you feel the need to come on a footy forum and take personal shots at people you've never met.

*Adds another one to ignore*

Just keep posting what ever you hear LN I love your work

Its a forum right?Rumours are an important part of our combined theatre

Gee if we were limited to known facts properly sourced and double checked no body would post anything

Lighten up and enjoy the place for what it is

 

A lot of poster on here would not have lasted five minutes in the Public bars of days gone by when footy rumour, bluff and bluster were all part of made inner suburban working life bearable for hard working men during miserable winters. Its all part of the game.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
