I got down to Casey today. It was good to be back watching the boys live. I waltzed into the ground and moved around at will, until Benny Gibson came over and told me I was welcome to stay, but that I

I arrived down at Casey (God's Country) around 9.15am and stayed until 11.30am.  The players began with forward 50 entries, they were about 60 out and delivering it to leads near the goal square

My first visit to Casey since the Saints preseason game maybe three years ago. The place has changed enormously, all for the good. Match simulation was well underway when I arrived at 10.30 (Note to s

Not saying it's what has happened here but it's entirely plausible that a player could change his mind. Heck I can barely make my mind up about what I want to eat for dinner 

I would say he's been given a significant pay rise seeing as he has been nearly best on ground in every game this season. It doesn't surprise me if he has now signed on with GWS. Credit to him.

Not at all Deefiant, the fact that I heard this information between 5 senior coaches and one of them being adamant that he wanted out is no skin off my teeth. I was given information at that time and I reported it to my demonlanders... if people want to throw judgement on me for that than I believe it is more a poor reflection on them than it is me.  

Thanks mate, interesting to hear. Sorry about all the [censored] you are coping

Effective strategy - keen and legitimate.

Unbelievable I, for one find Dazzle Davey36 posts to be logical, well thought out and extremely knowledgeable. He knows his footy and he is one poster that I will always listen to!

Dazzle you talk more nonsense than anyone on this site so I wouldn't be throwing stones if I were you. 

The irony CC is that posters here cry out for rumours, particularly around trade time!  Of course what happens is if you are wrong they turn on you because they are disappointed.  It would also seem posters don't understand that situations change.

And don't worry about Dazzle.  He knows a bit about footy but his one wood is potting posters.  If you're not included you're not relevant.

I love your posts, but jeez that just flew right over your head didn’t it?

No, I just don't get why I'm being tagged and commented on in a thread I had nothing to do with.

You may want to go back and see which 'Lord' you were supposed to tag "nimwit".

Exactly - a case in point was Isaac Smith. There was solid mail he was coming to Melb, but it's likely the dude just changed his mind. The poster (s) were shot down in flames.

The good news is, Isaac Smith is at Geelong with the other silly old coots. Sucks be to him.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
