Did I just hear BT say this has been a inspiring start to the season by Ken Hinkley???

Surely there are better alternatives than BT for Prime Time.

Thursday night - Mighty Dees put the cherry on top of their Gather Round experience

Friday night - perversely reading through Dustin Fletcher Hangar game thread.

Does it get better?

So where was the great Essendon edge. It was more like watching thomas the tank engine having tea and scones with emily.

Nothing like beating West Coast, Richmond and Essendon. And then, wait, what’s that? Losing to an actual contender at home.

Not gonna hold that against 'em.
They gave us a run for our money without Horn-Francis.

In his commentary, BT said Stringer was "lurking". I'm sure Stringer has done plenty of that!

I'm a little sensitive about the references to the number of days since Essendon last won a final. While I'm a fan of schadenfreude involving Essendon, I'm not sure I want to be reminded of that match. It was against the Dees.

For all the BT haters, give the guy a break, he just dropped the funniest thing I've ever heard.

"I've done the math Richo"

Had me in stitches.

The worst is when he says something like: 

"I'm an ex tradie, I'll get the tape measure out"

It was still a good game.
And I'll tip it'll be a good game next time too.
Just reckon their little mids got tired of running into our fleet of bulls all night.
They really could've used HF at stoppages.
BOG tonight I hear.

It's a reminder that they're a very good side when they're on, and that JHF makes them even better in the middle (although obviously a fit May makes us better too).

We should be incredibly proud of winning both these Adelaide games.

I think Scott is a flat earther and was referring to the edge of the earth and how long it would take till the Bombers eventually fell off.

Didn't have to wait long.

Round 22:

Which should be the Friday night game?

Dees v Port or Sydney V Collingwood.

Knowing thee AFL that is not a question in their minds. Give it to the favourites up North. OMG just realized the Filth have to travel interstate for this one. Someone in "fixtures" will get a kick in the behind.

I watched the Port Adelaide vs Essendon game last night as a neutral, but also as someone who has a bit of a dislike for both sides. I did however, enjoy seeing Port tip Essendon completely over the edge because the Bombers have been unashamedly promoted in the Herald Sun throughout the preseason and into the first few weeks of the season proper. No coincidence that Mark Robinson, the paper’s chief football writer, is an Essendon fan. I wonder if we are now going to see a change of direction at the HUN and for someone among their team of journos to start questioning the culture of the club at the hanger?

Robbos just an average bloke with alcoholic dementia,doing an average job,for an average paper and an average radio station and tv show with a below average IQ and hygeine regimen.I actually tip my hat to the poor c.nt.He's the highest achieving slob we've had in Australia since Sir Les Patterson and he isn't even a parody.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
