    Tom and Garry (maybe all of SEN) were counting down the days with interviews with people who wore that number, or related to. Say 12 days to go, Todd. 11, Sam Stynes.

    I'm actually surprised CS hasn't come out of the woodwork yet. I thought he'd be all over this like a cheap suit by now.

    Ron Barassi would be a ripper

    Still remember seeing a photo of him in a Richmond scarf at the 2017 grand final..

    Hopefully it stays that way.

    He’s been doing paintings about us. Good luck to him on that front.

    I just don’t want him calling up giving comment on radio or TV. If he does, I pray Mario from Doncaster rings up to give him a burst again.

    Sadly, I’m not sure Ron’s mental state would allow an extensive interview… 😢

    Anything on Daniel Cross? I just wanna know who he's Barracking for. :laugh:

    EDIT:

    Another former Bulldog, Daniel Cross - who did not taste premiership success at the club before finishing his career at the Demons and then working in the football department there - said he was finding it difficult to decide who to support, but he would be pleased regardless of the result.

    “It is going to be really hard for me, to be honest,” Cross said.

    “It’s a win-win for me. I have got guys I have played with at both clubs, some really good friends in terms of being teammates and working with guys at Melbourne in high performance. I also know staff members at both clubs ... you could see it unfolding as the season went on. It was great to watch for my family.”

    Cross played alongside Tom Liberatore, Lachie Hunter and Easton Wood in his final game with the Bulldogs in 2013, while Christian Salem, Max Gawn, Angus Brayshaw, James Harmes, Tom McDonald, and Jack Viney played in his last game for the Demons in 2015.

    Those nine will play in this year’s grand final, while Christian Petracca and Alex Neal-Bullen were also at the Demons when Cross retired.

    “The talent was obviously there,” Cross said.

    “It was pretty obvious to see. It is no real surprise to see where they have ended up as a group.”

    Interesting in the Bob Spargo interview that he said he thinks Dogs will win because they match hardened, then said on a hot GF day in 1961 they, the Dogs were beaten by a fresher Hawthorn who ran all over them in the last quarter. Predicted 24 in Perth Saturday.

    He was a guest at a virtual work workshop I was at a couple of weeks ago. Was frank about the past (Richmond and Melbourne), his firings, depression, life in general and life after football. No comments as you’ve described, but a lot more decorum than you.

    So I assume he didn’t call in and call you all a bunch of ignorant plebs which he virtually did on here post round 2, 2012?

    Acknowledged his role was unlikely to continue when you get beaten by 186 points. Showed and read his diary entry for that day he got axed. Certainly didn’t get on Demonland 9 years later to have an unrelated pot shot.

    Removed ‘nope’ at the start. Was referencing his recent presentation

    24 not really hot and by the time the game starts it will be well under that figure. Fremantle doctor will do its job.

    Not as good a job as the Richmond doctor would do.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
