Closing the thread might be a good idea.

Agree,

Its getting a bit messy now. Isaac has chosen the cats. So I think its time this thread gets locked for good.

Of course there's always the possibility that Smith is duplicitous. 

Well we can take the second one then.

Brilliant. And good fun.

... add Dr.D and drdrake to that auspicious list.

But not Dr Stephen Dank as it seems he is now a fugitive from justice.

Back on topic; Smithy will indubitably add a suave, urbane, ever so slightly debonair edge to wing play at the 'G just add the red V and navy blue long sleeves.

and guilty by association Docs Demons...

 

 

Addendum: Is Isaac Smith a closet goofy footer? the appeal of Dad's Army in hoops down at Kardinia Park won out.

Isaac would have been very good for the Demons both in terms of leadership and his footy attributes. He is a quality person.. 

At the end of the day Isaac made a lifestyle decision. He wanted to get out of Melbourne and live and play in a different environment. Melbourne could not provide the live style change that Geelong offered.

With the 20 minute QTR coming back and less rotations,  the grandpas will need their walking sticks. Geelong have missed the boat, Smith is not this great winger anymore, just like Ablett was no better then a good ordinary football when he came back.

Kardinia Park may not be the smug stronghold it once was. With some spilt milk rather than the collective self-satisfied licking of the ? ‘s whiskers. Be backing a bus load of younger up and comers to turn up and spoil the celebration. It will not be Collingwood, Richmond, or Carlton as they it seems are never fixtured west of the Yarra.

"That's one of the white hottest teams I've ever played in a game of football" Isaac Smith on the loss to the Demons ... he would know having played in a heap of high pressure finals before ... we just need to come with the same level of intensity again ... next time a mismatched Brown kicks 5 or close is my prediction

Honesty seems to be a quality of his. After round 23 he said “Lever and May made us look like fools.”  Clearly some at Geelong were none too impressed by his  frankness.

Don’t mind the honesty, at least he didn’t use the poo excuse like his coach did.

Honesty? He did commit to us and then change his mind. Not sure he's one for honesty. Or perhaps he's feeling bad about that one...

He gave them excellent service which is  ore than you can say for many of them.

Issac is a great bloke! and i think he was genuinely considering coming to the Dees but at that stage it would have been 2 years knowing he'd be having a crack at a flag vs 2 years of maybe scraping into finals if he was lucky.

I also think Geelong the town was a pretty big factor in his call. 

Nice to hear from a bloke who's won a few flags that he thinks we're in a strong position though

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year.
