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 ?

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.

I'm actually enjoying this thread, most people are respecting each other.

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.

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
