one of the clubs i truly envy

meth coke have an amazingly strong record of being a finals side  - they've only finished outside the 5 / 6 / 8 nine times in their existence (twice in their first three years), and even then they've only dropped into the bottom few on half those occasions (and used that as an opportunity to 'bounce' back up the ladder quickly with good drafting and trading)

they've already been rumoured to be 'into' tim english from the dogs and logan mcdonald from sydney, have a heap of players due to roll off big salaries soon, and are, arguably, the wealthiest club in the competition

 

Did they win the 2021 flag though?

    So, the Demons have finally been knocked off their perch after the Dockers thrashed the Eagles yesterday. The thrashing in Perth assured Freo of top spot on the 2022 pre season ladder with only today’s Richmond v Geelong blockbuster replay of the 2020 grand final to complete the opening round. 

    Fremantle 1 - - 141 44 320.5 4
    Melbourne 1 - - 132 44 300.0 4
    Brisbane 1 - - 138 49 281.6 4
    Collingwood 1 - - 111 45 246.7 4 *
    Gold Coast 1 - - 76 55 138.2 4
    GWS Giants 1 - - 126 95 132.6
    Carlton 1 - - 67 60 111.7 4
    Essendon 1 - - 81 75 108.0 4 

    ————————————————————

    Western Bulldogs - 1 - 75 81 92.6 0
    St Kilda - 1 - 60 67 89.6 0
    Sydney Swans - 1 - 95 126 75.4 0
    Port Adelaide - 1 - 55 76 72.4 0
    Hawthorn - 1 - 44 111 39.6 0 *
    Adelaide - 1 - 49 138 35.5 0
    North Melbourne - 1 - 44 132 33.3 0
    West Coast Eagles - 1 - 44 141 31.2 0

    * The anomaly of the round was the Collingwood v Hawthorn game played over six quarters (sixths) which ended in a 141 all draw but I’ve only counted the serious part which was the first three quarters that saw the Pies well in front at the not so final siren. The rest of that game was a bit like this series - somewhat Mickey Mouse.

    If the eagles are chasing Tim English then maybe Jackson has already told them no, you would think west coast would want Jackson before English

    And their supporters are insufferable. And 1990, 1991, 1994 & 2018 - that's why they're one of my most hated club's.

    I guess it is pretty early to make judgements but having watched most of these 

    practice games all the other teams apart from ours looked very disorganised.

    Our systems are looking strong like our playing list

    As someone mentioned on this thread the only team

    I thought had outplayed us last yr was GWS. They were cruelled by

    injuries last year.

    So good to see West Coast struggling. 6 key players injured. Shepperd retired early. Darling and anti vax tard.

    Watched the highlights of Cats and Tigers. Geez the Tigers looked like they took a step back in time. Cats have seriously adjusted their game plan too but not sure it will be enough. Both look the goods for 2022. I get it’s only praccy matches but I think On that performance they are both a top 8 side.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
