I popped back into the big footy link.

we are called ‘shemons supporters’.  Lots of comments about how insufferable we are, we don’t have a home base, tanking and the failed merger.  Oh, we overlooked Dusty twice.  Smashing these flogs would be particularly enjoyable......

Hawks supporters are not all that unlike Melbourne supporters (as much as some here may hate to admit it). Very similar demographics, up and about when they're doing well but very quiet otherwise. Tigers supporters have always been nauseating: if not for their hyperventilation when they were crap then for their "GOAT" rhetoric post-flags. Theyll never let anyone live down this four year stretch. And if they win it this year well then god help us all because they may well be the GOAT.

See now the way to fix them up is beat them this week then ensure they don’t win the GF let alone make it. Dees tigers prelim.

they barely got going in the fourth as well if not for Dusty. He pretty much led every single charge forward. you could see it coming though. by the end of the third we were running on fumes. and if I remember correctly many of their goals in the last came on the run out of our forward line. 

just found it funny that this week some of their supporters are calling us the weakest 5-0 side ever. They were gifted a dream run to start the year in 2017, faced teams on a short break and played Carlton, Brisbane and Collingwood, who finished 16th, 18th and 13th respectively that year. Then JUST overran a Melbourne team with no rucks and 1 player on the bench. Moral being that regardless of who you beat, if you string a good run of wins together at any point of the season you're setting yourself up for success. which is exactly as they did. I hope their complacency this week turns into a wakeup call. All good things must come to an end. A changing of the guard must start this weekend.

Then got belted by the Crows in round 6 by almost 80 points before going on a run of losses (4 losses in a row).

Speaking of Richmond supporters, does Mario from Doncaster still do the rounds on SEN? They were more appealing when their fans mostly had his mindset. :pj:

What the [censored] does 'shemons' even mean?  

  Tiger supporters are as bad as Collingwoods, if not worse.  The kind of mouth breathing scum that would write an angry email to the Department of Home Affairs demanding that Dustin Martins daddy be allowed back in the country as they cry over their keyboards

How is it I remember the times Richmond supporters seem to have forgotten?

The tin rattling for the Save Our Skins campaign when they were dead broke and an endangered species.

The delivery of chook manure by disgruntled fans.

The returning of membership cards or the burning of them when another unsuccessful season was unfolding.

Ah, yes, those were the days. Richmond supporters should not forget where they came from and be a bit more humble.

They were a joke even half way through 2017. That loss on the siren to Freo, the media went them, and rightly so, for their soft underbelly. That same team has now won 3 flags. It can turn quickly.

The great Geelong side were similarly flakey and unreliable in early 2007 and we know what happened after that.

Given where we've been for almost 60 years, I would be very surprised if the vast majority of Melbourne people weren't humble if we went on a similar run.

To be humble, I think, is one of the more important traits in life and in sport. It sounds like Richmond supporters have little of this, and for a club that failed to make the finals for almost 20 years and then when they eventually did get there, choked at the first asking, is pretty rich I reckon.

That call he made comparing his lot as a Tiges supporter to Jacquie Kennedy post the JFK shooting is one of the funniest things I've ever heard. Wonder if he still has the petrol station.

Or Whorethorn, Essendrug or Filth. I find all these names disturbingly juvenile and unbecoming a supporter base I like to think of as more sophisticated than the average.

It's a deadset guarantee that if we have a run of success, our supporters will overnight become arrogant, entitled and insufferable. I for one look very much forward to seeing that happen.

I also dislike these nicknames.  But I make an exception for Essendon.  The other names have no real proven basis and so are pretty silly, but not so with Essendon.

Wet Toast is silly but harmless. Calling us Shemons has clear misogynistic undertones. Whoever started that is clearly a boorish oaf.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
