Can anybody name the other Grand Final Coach who never played without looking it up?  (I couldn't)

    I hope his goggles fog up and he trips over himself, falls flat on his face, breaks his nose and never plays again.

    Another year and we don't have to wonder where our post match celebrations will be held.

    Can Collingwood still use Victoria Park and how about the Lions at Brusnswick Street Oval. Olympic Park does not have the same feel.

    I see the Pies are trying a fan site at Olympic Park. These have never really worked in the past. A pity.... I wonder what would attract people.

    I thought our post premiership day at the MCG was well done but I hope the next one is even better

    Some returned tickets from the MCC ballot become available tomorrow. I'm not bothering. 

    FWIW, I was again attacked by a freakin magpie while riding today. That's 4 times in the past month.

    Death to magpies!!

    Joyce and Hafey both played VFL footy.  It's a great trivia question!

    so hard not to google it. certainly a cracking question 

    it’s actually surprising there’s aren’t more coaches that’s haven’t played at the highest level. Jose Mourinho types

    The last one I can remember is Wayne Brittain at Carlton.

    edit:  Add Brendan McCartney and Neil Craig (who did play 300+ SANFL games).

    I didn’t know Chris Fagan never played VFL/AFL. Now I’m wondering why I oftentimes heard Brendon Bolton being criticised as a coach because of the fact that he never played at the highest level. I’ve never heard this sort of talk about Fagan.

    And there's another one!  Forgot all about him, even though he coached as recently as 2019.

    Dammit, this still hurts. We absolutely should be playing this weekend. Anyway. Go Brisbane, I guess. Purely because the alternative doesn’t bear thinking.

    Cox getting a medal will mean the nausea going into effect.

    Maynard getting a medal will mean a churning feeling in the stomach.

    Howe getting a medal will mean chunks and bile all over the tv.

    I'll watch it, but the TV will be turned off if the unthinkable becomes inevitable.

    Won't be watching. Not sure why anyone on here would. Picking up a new car then watching our 2021 finals. Will be a great day.

    What car @Clintosaurus? Take a video of picking it up and put it on Demonland, I’d rather watch that than the GF.

    Anyone painting? Good viewing (relatively) there, too.

    No, but I could always stream one of Bob Ross’ painting sessions

    Had to look him up. Nice Catoggioid hair!

    However, I had the drying phase in mind. Warm day, but I reckon there'd still be 4 quarters plus presentations worth.

      The Demons hit the road for their last practice hit out before the start of the 2026 AFL Premiership season when they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.

      It's finally Game Day and the Demons, under new head coach Steven King, will run out onto the field with a new looking lineup and a brand new midfield when they take on the Kangaroos this afternoon at Casey.
