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.

Chook in Perth gets the respect he deserves around here.

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

Quality as always.

 

 

That is completely incorrect

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 ?

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!

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.

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.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
