Iā€™m convinced Dodoro has compromising photos of someone high up at the Bombers. The bloke has Teflon shoulders

    Let's pray that DoDrito never learns to milk a draft using the same elasticity with double pike, triple twist and tight tuck he applies to the shenanigans in the Essenscum boardroom.

    If he can survive working at Essendon then anything is possible, It's a good move for him.

    I loved what Josh Mahoney bought to our club and was disappointed that he ventured to Essendon, I am so happy for Josh that he has been picked up by the AFL he will help make it a much smarter and fairer footy place and I like the changes Ā that Ross Dillon is making within the AFL.Ā

    I'm sure we all know who you mean. But it begs the question...is Ross any relation to Andrew Dillon?

    Many years ago now, I was a member the mfc, year after year. Joined after a passionate public plea from Jimmy. Then one year after having some financial struggles I was slow to renew. A cold call from Josh Mahoney himself seemed full of genuine spirit and desire to retain each member as every bit of help would have the club turn the corner soon. Whilst I was low on funds I had just found work and agreed that on the next payday I could make it work and would sign on again for what would have been a 10th year. He said he was excited to have me back and would personally call me that Friday to get me signed up once more. A decade has since passed. Iā€™m beginning to think he has forgotten me.Ā

    being hated by the peptide's people would surely have to be a badge of honour and a good guy endorsement

    Just because they claim to be rebuilding but also didn't have a single player in the 22-under-22 team doesn't mean there is anything wrong with their drafting and development. Just ask dodo.

    Escape is survival! Basically Essendon club politics is a Resident Evil spin-off.

    I thought there'd be more discussion of this here.

    Glancing at his responsibilities, which include vague portfolios touching umpiring, mystery operations, ball-tracking technology and other things, you'd have to say his time at the palace hasn't been a success. I do wonder to what extent it is his own failures and to what extent he was simply handed the [censored] bags to carry.

    If there's any possibility he'll get cranky and spill on all the trash going on at AFLHQ, I'd be keen. Could Demonland invite him for the 'great historic podcast which brings down the regime'?

    First lets get him back as Football Manager...he's very good in the role.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, weā€™ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: ā€œThen came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.ā€ Today, weā€™re back in the same place although oneĀ difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, ā€œIt was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, ā€¦ā€Ā  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
