If Syd Stack comes to the Demons he’ll have the dubious title of “Only Demons Player I’ve Had A Cigarette With”.

Ah yes, as Stuart Wagstaff once said "When only the best will do, and isn't that all the time"??

    Officially he’s not. But in every other way he is, or so it seemed. He and Goody are clearly really close friends, he [censored]-stirs Goody mercilessly. 😂 But yeah, he was involved in this particular training session as much as the other coaches. 

    Thanks for info. Much appreciated and I'm happy he still has some input into the culture of the place.

    Can someone tell me how many list spots we have? I thought only 3 with the 2 draft picks and the chandler promotion. How would stack fit on the list

    Now I don't have to hear Richmond supporters when they play us saying watch out viney Stack is nearby. I mean it was a great bump but I've seen better.

    Did you deliberately pick JV because SS will remember his great tackle/ bump on Jack in the 2019 Anzac Eve game which put him out of business for a while. 

    Stack  May ask for Trac or Ollie or Hibbo on that basis TEIN, having seen Jack off already. 

    Picked deliberately, due to him never again taking the field against viney. Was dropped the next year for the game against us and hasn’t found himself in form warranting since.

    If he’s quick, we could give him the lengthy nickname of Smoke Stack Lightening.

    Really, typical of the pessimism on this site.

    Meh, I’m not fazed at all if he leaves. I would’ve welcomed a trade with open arms this year if it could’ve been facilitated. If anything, that’s optimism. 
     

    I think he’s one of the most inconsistent and overrated players we’ve had in years.

    @BLWNBARe Pickett….

    Look, I know he’s played an interminable three years with us which only included one premiership, and having just recently turned 21, is getting on a bit in his years, but just try to be patient.

    Don't understand tobacco users, if your going to smoke you should get something positive out of it

    Yes, I’m incredibly aware of that, don’t worry.

    God no.

    It’d be totally in opposition to our culture, choosing talent over character and work ethic.

    So is that pessimistically optimism or optimistically pessimistic if he left?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
