I think the question should be Why do we need footy calendars at all. The kids are into ipads these days so I think their day has passed.

btw the Collingwood calendar is probably worse than Norths

    Treloar was in the Pies calendar

    Never thought I'd go without a watch but haven't worn one for the last five years.

    Calendars are so last century

    For those who are into such things perhaps you could sell a digital wallpaper that changes by the day or month that could be used as a screensaver for your TV or computer/phone.

    I'm looking at buying one of the Samsung Art TV's that make the TV look like a picture when off. Not sure I'd want a 70" grinning Gawn on my wall though.

    Surely nobody buys one of these for themselves. The market has to be 99% throwaway Christmas gifts and Kris Kringles.

    The Wagner's sharing a month was a poor decision in hindsight

    ...with him holding the premiership cup aloft.  I think I'd almost get an A0 size framed poster for every room.

    If I got a 2021 Collingwood Callander from a KK with Treloar in it, I would rate it as the best Christmas present ever

    Next to Treloar there should be a pic of Weid just to remind them of who they should have taken with their first pick in that draft.

    I usually stick my calendar over my desk at work, and just as usually forget to turn the month after about March.

    To be fair, you could ask that question over many things available for sale. The better question is, if someone believes there is a market for this product (and presumably there is), why can't they find a way of witing to print said calendars after the trade period concludes?

    I agree about calendars being out of date.,  ?.

    Years ago I asked the marketers at the MFC to stop sending me scarves (you know the ones, the ones pictured flowing out of a dumpster one year). I suggested they send out just the year every season as a patch to add to one of the 30 odd scarves I already have.

    This would be a far more attractive scarf with a line of years on it rather than trying to come up with a new design each and every year. LESS WASTEFUL TOO. But they were having none of that. As a supporter - you know, the person who pays towards keeping the machinery operating - you'd hope to be listened to. I don't know why I thought that!

    Anybody who wants to support this idea could contact the club....................   (I 'm not sure they pay much heed to Demonland though, unfortunately.)

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
