Please explain. Does Ed Langdon (surely you don't mean Eddie McGuire) have a business which involves coffee?

Yep. Definitely Lingers and his bro.

Yes, premium instant coffee apparently. Sounds like an oxymoron to me.

Au contraire.  Just think of instant coffee as a completely different beverage rather than a poor imitation.  Then quality matters.

It's called Lay Day or something. I've had it once. For instant coffee it's excellent and I would definitely take it bushwalking where weight and space is at a premium. It's very expensive though. I haven't bought instant coffee for decades, so not sure the relative cost.

I watched the first half and Bedford was good. Had to go out and saw the scores so didn’t bother with the 2nd half. I presume he dropped off in the 2nd half?

The whole team did. Bedford retains his spot.

Great interview from Goodwin there, explained what happened very well. 

Ross Lyon was just recently bemoaning the fact that clubs could not make their players do anything substantive when not training or playing football. He claims when he was coach, he wanted every player to either be studying or working part-time. I can recall when Peter Rohde was coach of the Bulldogs he also required it of every player.

Do we know whether all our players are working or studying part-time? Langdon has his coffee business (and, I think, is studying Commerce), Brayshaw and Tomlinson are studying. Who else? And what are they doing?

I was speaking to a well known author who wrote a book with Gawny last year, and he also wrote the Tigers premiership books. He was saying the expectations on the players time is really intense, and it shifts and changes every week depending on game times.

I imagine it’s very difficult to do anything too structured that you can’t control during the season.

Which is a step up from Petracca who keeps robbing Brighton houses and selling items to Cash Converters

I know of a few...

Max Gawn owns East End Wine Bar: https://eastendwinebar.com/

James Harmes owns Fat Nutt Customs:  https://fatnutt.com/

Jack Watts owns Skwosh: www.skwosh.com.au

The most successful is probably Thomas Bugg with his "Zooz" Influencer marketing business: https://www.zooz.com.au/

Dom Tyson owns Clutch & Co with his brothers: https://www.clutchandco.com.au/

Joel Macdonald, Rowan Bail and James Strauss started LiquorRun, an alcohol delivery start up business but I don't think it exists anymore. 

Matt Jones and Max Gawn had a furniture business called Max Jones Co but it may have been a joke. 

And Bayley Fritsch is a sparky:

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    2024 Player Reviews: #10 Angus Brayshaw

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
