Just getting paranoid about Brisbane getting a ton of percentage over us, even if it’s early days.

If we win more games percentage doesn’t matter

Flew way out west for a friend's birthday celebrations this weekend. Said friend has got us tickets to The Derby today. Finally getting to experience Boo Stadium first-hand (and six months too late).

Dees Premiership polo ready to wear.

Wonder if premiership player Ben Brown is having any regrets about leaving?

With him in the team, they could have gone down by only 15 goals for a face saving gallant defeat.

4 points > percentage

I actually think about a number of clubs ... my anger and dislike of them occupies large amounts of my thinking time. Is that normal? Especially the filth ... and the following (in no particular order) -  Jee-long, Richmond, Essendon (although less these days cos they're pretty hopeless), Footscray. 

I hear you, Bingers. I’ve let Essendon live rent-free in my head for decades. Recently a friend asked me who I think I might barrack for if Melbourne ever ceased to exist *shudder* He was shocked when I said probs Essendon 🤮 (Soz reflex action). My logic being: The opposite of love is not hate, but indifference. Therefore, I think I’d have an easier time converting my intense and undying hate for Essendon into love of a similar degree. The path from indifference to love would be so much longer.
Hmmmm, maybe I need to see a therapist. 

Lol- even text predictor knows how much I hate that loathsome pack of ferals…

Who have Brisvegas played so far…??

I'm about to head to the G for the Bluebaggers/Poos & Wees match.

It's an interesting experience going to a match as a neutral. I suspect the highlight will be the afternoon tea. I know there will be sandwiches, party pies & liquified dust (which is supposed to be coffee). Not sure whether there will be scones ... hope so. I'm joining my MUCH OLDER friend in the 50 year section of the members.  (I don't qualify personally as I am much, much younger than him.)

Likewise SWYL.

Cats at GMHBA this week will be their first test.

They look good but the GF will be at the G in September.

Enjoy the day out. Safe in the knowledge there'll be 1 less unbeaten team at the end of the match.

Your problem will be who to support to make it happen.  or who do you hate least - Blues or hawks.

Really tough decision from where I stand but will be wathcing the game on the tele with that angle in mind.

Today, I hate the Hawks more.

Should be a fun, high scoring match. Carltons defence is looking shaky but they have plenty of fire power

I hope Hawks win today because Hawks aren’t actually good enough to do any real damage and if they win it proves that Carlton probably aren’t either. 
I am a deeply mean spirited footy fan

Essendon were absolutely horrible especially the first half. Dragged us down to their level .

Our execution was sloppy but our structure was impeccable. I was never really worried even when they hit the front. We just suffocated them and they had no answers at all.

Strangle, suffocate then score. The Demon way.

Clearances and conversion are where Carlton would destroy us.

Are you saying they're going to win the flag?

Are the Blues as good to watch live as they are on TV right now? Coz they’re looking  great from where I am.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
