Nup not accepting it

Fair enough - lets not let facts get in the way of an argument - that's the Demonland way 😁😁

    Bennett was wonderful, so were Jakovich, Shwartz, Green, and Jurrah. Neitz and Robbo were not bad either. But I will place 1) Garry Lyon 2)Bayley Fritsch and 3) Jack Watts over most when it comes to kicking. Watts was a beautiful kick for goal.

    They should be showing kids that video in school. The most uncomplicated kicking stance and beautiful art.

    And if you wanna talk stats then you never seen AJ over a 3 year career.  Crushes Liam. Loved Liam Loved Allen even more but if i was asking for a goal outside 50, or from any angle inside 50, i would say Brad was a chance during a 12 year Career and the closest I've seen to as good a kick as Matty Lloyd. Apologies if you feel I'm bickering. 

    Actually Jackovich's goal kicking accuracy (not including out on the full) was 54% while Jurrah's was 63%.

    It's a regret of mine that I never went to Windy Hill.

    As a youngster in the 70's, I stood in front of the grandstand and women who looked my mum would use language that even me and my mates would think too filthy and strong.  I went home dazed and confused. And I was there for the goal.

    Not to mention David Cordner and Weidemann last year.

    I have a Bombers work colleague who is mad that we fobbed Weid off on Essendon because his hands are as bad as I told him they were.

    Are you a masochist?  lol

    Worst ground for opp supporters in the VFL. Terrible out of the way place.  Worse even for dees supporters. We rarely won out there.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
