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.

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.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
