Should take the media pressure of us.

 

I look forward to the AFL announcing its own investigation  with threats of AFL imposed suspension.

Well hopefully people jump on this now.

Can I just ask what goes through people's minds when they post this on social media? Did he not realise the implications?


It might help explain the brain fades and need for special leave. 

Btw, Lachie Hunter is ready to come back from 'personal' leave after a convenient 6 week break...

The bulldogs are quite adept at using smoke screens and finding nothing after their own investigations. 

Maybe Tom Morris got too close to the truth of what happens at the kennel...

The Bulldogs are investigating?!?!?

The AFL and the Police should be investigating. 

I'm not jumping to conclusions here, but he's put himself into a posiiton where this demands a drug test. 

If guilty a years suspension. He's the most popular player in the game. Do that shiz off line you muppet if you're boring enough to do it.

Talent is wasted on the dumb 

Bulldogs will pull the mental health card and that will kill the story quick smart. 

Of all opposition supporters, I have alway felt the Footscray people were okay. I never had any dramas going to see the Deez at the Western oval in the '70s and '80s. Once again, Footscray people have been noice to us Demons. Thank you for the gift BS.  You are forever in our hearts. 

I recall a few years ago Caroline Wilson said the AFL bans commentators from media reports where it might affect a player's mental health.  iirc it was when Jack Stevens was hospitalised after being stabbed.  She said the media hold back a lot of stories because of the AFL edict.

Watch this Bailey Sniff Smith episode disappear down the same rabbit warren. 

The very same rabbit warren his alleged assault on someone on the GC last year went, after the alleged victim was transported to hospital, police investigated but no charges and the bulldog's did their usual 'nothing to see here' report.

Neil Mitchell's view about footballers is that you're no dealing with Einsteins. Hard to argue with him after this week's events

Edited by one_demon


All I'm going to do is reflect on how proud I am that the first source to tell me about the Demon's dinner fiasco was the club itself.

 

Bailey Smith is, indeed, the new shiny toy. Gerard Whateley will quickly shift his focus from May to Bailey, claiming that everything is disgusting and that the AFL needs to conduct another investigation on top of the May investigation, as well as the investigation that will undoubtedly take place next week when Toby Greene is scheduled to put his foot in it somewhere.

I have been saying for years that because you can play football well does not necessarily make you a rocket scientist.

Disagree.

The narrative is already being shaped:

May - 'He has history this bloke. Horrible look. So much damage. Obviously a trouble maker....'

Smith - 'We need to think about his mental health. Poor fella must be struggling. Needs our support...'

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
