Are you admitting to a drinking problem Jaded?

It took about 10 minutes of cross-examination of Nathan Buckley before they even recognised that Goodwin was in the studio.

Not a problem. A solution.ย

Good Lord JCB , surely you know that beer is ok at the footy and on a hot summers day ....... but ..... for a serious [censored] up ... Shiraz is the only drink for gentlemenย 

A fine drop, I prefer overproof molasses based rum with dunderย and muck fermentation.ย

Is Robbo a jibbering [censored] or am I a mindless drunk ?

A little confused but pretty sure these are rhetorical questions Uncle

He has got worse, supposedly heย use to watch games and drink at a bar in Fitzroy then write an article on it.ย 

A mate of mine personally sawย the physical aftermath the morning afterย a Robbo session, leftย in the front bar of a certain Fitzroy pub he used to work at.ย 
His description of the trashed bar area sounded like something a herd of drunk toddler elephants would leave behind.ย

This isnโ€™t about me being a drunk itโ€™s about Robbo being a dh!โ€™

Stating the obvious twice in one sentence is pushing the Demonland moderators a bit.

I just donโ€™t understand Robbo. Surely heโ€™s not half-sloshed when heโ€™s on air - how can that be allowed? But if not, then how can an incoherent oaf manage to develop such a high profile? Iโ€™m not fussed about him one way or the other, I just canโ€™t make any sense of what I see when heโ€™s on my TV.

Speaking of half sloshed, I heard Dermie on the radio this afternoon. Declared he wasn't impressed with Melbourne, despite their convincing win.ย 

Dermie, I think there were some sour grapes in that wine you were drinking at lunch.?

His articles are decently written (certainly not the best out there) but heย uses a lot of emotion in his writing which suits the HS. His footy knowledge is really poor though which surprisesย me. Iโ€™ve been watching 360 for years and he just always uses phrases such as โ€œtheyโ€™re just not showing heartโ€, or โ€œx team has to make a standโ€ while completely ignoring any technical reasons.ย

I watched the other night and said why are you yelling. Poor Gerard must think I'm just sitting here.ย

I know you love me Ernieย 

You are my alter ego Uncle.ย Sometimes, when the mood takes me.ย 

Alternatively, I find some of your proclivities distasteful, but Iย enjoy the fact that you do not take yourself too seriously. Otherwise Demonland would be very bland and boring. A place inhabited by demon tragics who take themselves tooย seriously is a bit sad.ย 

No-one could take you seriously, thankfully.ย

Not a gReat fan of AFL360 but enjoying watching Collingwood, cCarlton, Saints Suns getting the living suitcase kicked out of them by these guys, as well as On The Couch. Also content to fly under the radar to an extent after the pasting we have received over the last couple of years.ย

That's fine. Goodwin is no longer under pressure. There's no conflict in his current story. Buckley on the other hand... the press always goes the negative narrative.

I reckon itโ€™s good editing or a ghost writer- or both!

He reminds me a bit of Donald Trump, in that he has the utmost conviction in what he is saying (regardless of whether he makes any sense) and his passion draws people into what he is saying (regardless of whether he makes any sense). I couldn't stand him while he defended Essendon's illegal doping program, but don't mind him now. I think he is alot more switched on than how he comes across (with spurring his words and coming across incoherently) and he does ask some good questions and make reasonable observations. I should also add that Trump is a toxic individual and I don't see Robbo in the same light at all.

ย Imagine, a group of higher ups at the Herald Sun thought it would be a good idea making him their Chief football writer for the next 40 years.

And then he gets a prime time slot on Fox Footy , 5 nights a week.ย  Hes probably pulling in a few hundred K a year for all his gigs.

The sooner the sun swallows this planet the better.

News corp presents him as a "man of the people" so if you ever need confirmation of what Murdoch thinks of the general public there's your answer - beer swilling, chain-smoking, incoherent, semi-literate yobbos.

Technically that is one question, and the response might be: are the two mutually exclusive?

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sundayโ€™s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this yearโ€™s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last seasonโ€™s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourneโ€™s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
