NON-MFC: Round 07, 2022


Demonland

Recommended Posts

Anyone ever seen 4 goals in 10 minutes from a player? Plugger would be happy with that

take away the minute in between goals and it’s 4 goals in 6 minutes if play. No feee kicks. 

what a freak. Best player of the last 30 years easily imo

Watching Essendon cop a merciless hiding never gets old. Nor ever will. Go Dogs!

We’ve copped our fair share WCW, so I love it when a mate sends me stuff like this. They have the most arrogant supporters imo.

Lions are proving Sydney aren't quite at the level.

Seeding:
1. Melbourne
2. Brisbane
3. Fremantle
4. St Kilda

Western Bulldogs could make a Grand Final from anywhere in the eight.

I don’t get the love for the Dogs. They hate pressure. They beat up on nothing sides and haven’t improved a single issue they’ve had last year, primarily their defense which is god awful. 
 

Brisbane will absolutely challenge us. They have the only forwardline that will really push our defense. A strong midfield and a good defense. 
Freo are another one I reckon could really challenge us. 

St Kilda don’t have enough talent IMO but we will know more next week.

Mick Malthouse has just predicted Johnny Depp and Amber Heard will remarry.

Lions missed around 5-6 simple shots and were away from home. Daniher injured too

felt like a 8 goal win. Lions not really troubled and would towel the swans up at home

They are a very good team and were probably the biggest threat to us last season.  They are better again this year although I still think they concede too many big scores.  I like Freo defensively.  They need Fyfe up forward and kicking straight.

The Worsfold - Rutten succession plan has been a resounding success thus far. 

Apparently Rutten doesn't rate Goodwin a as coach.  Devastating for poor Goodie.

By themselves? Or with "outside help"?

Cairns is putrid for humidity.

Never been to Alice but no place on earth can possibly be as 'wet' as Cairns. 

Try living at Daintree  100 k north. Maybe Tully 150 sth wettest place in Australia.

For me i think Brisbane struggle against the better defensive sides, we showed in the qualifying final last year that if you take away their marks inside 50, they are so reliant on Cameron and it's just not enough. i honestly think this is why they've failed to make a grand final so far. 

I think Freo defensively are good enough to restrict Brisbane but i have question marks over their fire power up forward, they're the most similar to us but i think they lack the pure quality we have in the midfield, the depth we have, and i think we have more fire power

We play Port in Alice soon… so yeah, glass houses and all that.

Why don't people check the facts?  They assume that because Alice is in the NT it has the same climate as Darwin (and Cairns).

Alice is generally very dry, and the nights are cool / cold in mid winter.  Dew more likely to be an issue than rain / hot humidity.

And the chances of Dew are 0.0013%

Agree but Fyfe has never kicked straight and I can’t see that changing

Why don’t people check the context of posts?

They assume I was talking about the effing weather but I am actually talking about selling games to neutral venues that make it easier for clubs like Port to beat us.

Lachie Neale is as good as his fellow players are on the Day.

He is a constant talker to umpires, looking for favours, I would think. He is a ducker and a snipe by the way he plays. Maybe the umpires like that, I don't know. There are others, Mihocek Coll. Is another one, Selwood and Footscrays  Bontempelli are others, along with Coll Captain..

Melb don't win Brownlows, Flower hardly ever talked to Umpires.

I understand the need for Umpires to talk to players and transfer interpretation.This has been going on for a while though.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
