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.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
