When the Dogga leaves

When Peter Bell speaks

When I'm feeling sad

I simply remember the Ed Langdon trade

And then I don't feel so bad

And in retrospect, I also feel similar about the trade we did with Freo with Jesse Hogan effecticely for premiership full back Steve May (and possibly another first rounder we turned into Dogga or Kossie?).

    We got May and Sparrow for Hogan

    I care, I want Freo to finish stone cold motherless last in 2023 so that in addition to another flag we get the number one draft pick! 🤪🤪🤪

    Not that I'm bitter or anything, but I wouldn't mind seeing this a few times in weekly line-up:

    Freo

    In: Corbett

    Out: Jackson

    The most important thing right now would be that Luke and his family have a Merry Christmas, that's all.

    Freo finishing last would be nice - of course we'd all love to see that 

    But it won't be happening. I was terribly disappointed Jackson left. I have now come to terms with his leaving and feel we will actually be a better and more consistent team with Grundy as his replacement

    To me he is the biggest loser - he's walked away from a great team, a club with a huge amount of history and the opportunity to play alongside the best ruck and arguably the two best midfielders in the competition

    I still feel he will regret his decision in due course

    Does anyone know for certain what dopey is getting paid by Freo and how long his contract?

    I dont recall seeing anything in the press after they signed him up.

    They've made some shocking decisions recently i hope their form continues.

    Good luck to Jacko in Freo and I note other players who have given Freo (not just the team/ area)) the heavo...

    7 years !!  Thats a huge risk for a player thats barely started his career. Surely he must be on light coin for the first few years and then loaded up later.

    Oliver and Petracca didnt get that same deal until they had long finished their apprenticeship  in their mid twenties.

    Whenever I get a new smartphone, without fail the screen gets scratched inside the first year of having it.

    It might be the light in this waiting room but I can clearly see it while trying to read this thread.

    If anyone has any fixes PM me. It's not a deep scratch but is noticeable.

    I broke a shoelace last week :)

    Hate that, not the easiest thing to replace quickly.

    FWIW my Asics Kayano runners came with the worst shoe laces that knotted up all the time, undoing them was hell so I replaced them. Not putting up with inferior shoe laces..

    Why not…he is in Bali for Xmas with his good mate Trey Ruscoe, from the Pies. I guess family time can wait until the season starts. Real stench of Jessie Hogan about where this is all heading 🤪 welcome to the deathride, Dogga

    yeah,  Jacko fed us alot of BS in the end. Kept the club in limbo all season and shot through at end of season after playing bog ordinary.

    im certainly not in his camp like alot of other  posters here.

    I’m genuinely staggered that Jackson’s in Bali at the moment.

    Thought he’d be spending  every minute of every day with Mum and Dad to make up for lost time…

    And I would say Melbourne supporters will show Luke Jackson the level of fondness that Dogs supporters show towards Jake Stringer.

    I.e - not a great deal.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
