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.

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

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
