We once had a mate called dogga

Who turned out to be a list clogger

We wished him the best

Shipped him off west

And hoped his replacement wasn't such a flogger

Still a Premiership hero for mine. Won’t ever forget the 45 mins of joy he brought after 57 year winter. 
Homesick, still a kid - we did same with Jeff White. 
Hoping the return game is not like Jeff Farmer’s

Me too mate. I got no beef with him.

Just killing a few mins on a Thursday arvo, and there aren't too many other words that rhyme with 'dogga'

Hey Daz, is that Kandi from Two and Half Men, the actress April Bowlby?

Nope, Amanda Seyfried

There once was a boy named Jackson,

That by 2022 went missing in action,

He headed back West because that’s what mummy thought best,

And from that I still can’t get no satisfaction

We used to have a player called Luke,

Who's natural talent isn't a fluke,

He helped us out to finally break the drought,

But to see him in purple makes me puke

There once was a boy named Luke

who looked dopey without a tooth

He won us a flag

but his mum was a nag

So he went home to the purple puke

 

There once was a ruckman called Dogga

With a chopper the size of a logger

He could handle the axe

But was no good without Max

And his next club will be Wagga Wagga

Farewell Lukey Jack

We'll miss your ground ball attack

Though you're 6'9"

We swapped you for a Pie.."

 

(Apologies, Aunty Jack).

 


There once was a man named Luke

Whose departure made us all want to puke

The rumours were a distraction 

He was missing in action

If only he was more like Touk.

Layzie, your work inspired me (well I actually plagiarised your good work ‘cause I’m also lazy):

There once was a lad named Luke,

Whose talents were certainly no fluke

We asked him to stay

But he left anyway

His departure made us all want to puke.

Oi! Pretty close to mine from 17 hours ago! 🙃

Of the warriors on D’land, there are some,

Who take issue with young Jacko’s mum,

Family loyalty it seems, is seen as a weakness,

Their gnashing of teeth, and the onset of bleakness,

Say this transgression will haunt them for years to come.

Sorry mate, it seems I plagiarised two people, not just one. I'll share my royalties with both you and layzie.


I don’t think I’ve seen a MFC player not play for a Melbourne jumper as much (or as little) as Luke Jackson did in his final outing for the club on 9 September.

His half hearted marking contests in a high stakes final was something else.

If Paul Roos was still coach of Melbourne, Jackson wouldn’t have played the final few games of the year.

There was a young man from Fremantle

Left the Dees for reasons financial

No worries I reckon

We found a new weapon

Grundy’s impact will be much more substantial

I went over to the Collingwood forum to see if they were writing poems about Grundy, but looks like Pies supporters prefer to express themselves using the visual medium.

This was from their ‘game-plan and tactics’ thread.

Collingwood supporters are still livid we gave them Woewodin so they take great delight that Dawes, Kennedy and LaBamba ranged from average pickups to down right disasters for us.

There was a bloke named Luke Jackson 

Who was not a patch on  Ricky Jackson

One was small

The other was tall

And unfortunately wanted no ConTraction

If only he found a homely Dees chick

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 05

    Gather Round is here, kicking off with a Thursday night blockbuster as Adelaide faces Geelong. The Crows will be out for redemption after a controversial loss last week. Saturday starts with the Magpies taking on the Swans. Collingwood will be eager to cement their spot in the top eight, while Sydney is hot on their heels. In the Barossa Valley, two rising sides go head-to-head in a fascinating battle to prove they're the real deal. Later, Carlton and West Coast face off at Adelaide Oval, both desperate to notch their first win of the season. The action then shifts to Norwood, where the undefeated Lions will aim to keep their streak alive against the Bulldogs. Sunday’s games begin in the Barossa with Richmond up against Fremantle. In Norwood, the Saints will be looking to take a scalp when they come up against the Giants. The round concludes with a fiery rematch of last year's semi-final, as the Hawks seek revenge for their narrow loss to Port Adelaide. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
