i was actually referring to a well known satirical piece (bigfooty iirc) about a day with the grog squad where shazza (iirc) was the fearsome head honcho. very politically incorrect

some other poster might remember a link?

Yeah.  It was one of Biffinators unofficial previews.  He wrote some funny stuff and had a particular knack of getting under the skin of Tiger fans.  I think he had one of their irate responses as his signature

Yes one of the greatest big footy posts  of all time that one.  Funny as [censored]

Fists of Fury was a great video game in the 90's.

Now Fists of Fury is a great defender… and he’s all ours. Can’t wait to see him put those fists to work on Monday!

I don’t even know who Miller is. Honestly they’re rubbish in 2023 and I’ll be severely disappointed if we lost to them.

Those on twitter will know that Richmond have some of the most arrogant supporters. They would need to win the wooden spoon for them to accept that their dynasty is over.

I had to look him up after reading his name in this thread. 

He is Richmond's 23 year old regular vfl ruckman. Pick 63 in the 2017 draft 1.98m and has played 14 games of AFL. 

Edit: He is 6-3-5 in those 14 games.

Has played in 3 draws in 14 games, incredible stat.

Some years ago I was having a drink at a bar in The Castro district of San Francisco . Interesting place.

I'm relieved the merits of  "Fists of Fury" didn't come up in the  discussion.

I'm still reluctant to call then rubbish or write them off.

At the end if the day they still have some quality premiership players still playing and on their day they can still win the tough game.

And knowing our form, I'm not entirely sure I have full trust in our squad that we can just win the games we're suppose too. Gotta respect the competition and each team we come up again. Especially now after the Essendon loss.

Actually thought this would be the year where you'd feel pretty comfortable knowing you'd rock up each week and just bank in the ala Iike the Geelong of 2008/2009.

Wait… is this what they’re saying at Punt Road, or Demonland?

Me too. I was thinking Brad Miller retired ages ago?

Surprised to see Cotchin is still playing this year. I assumed he retired already… his numbers and impact back this up! 

I don't watch much of him, but the number of dog acts he pulls has increased.

Yep. Big Shazza. May have been promoted to Queen Shazza in later instalments

    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

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded.

    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
