Best footy podcast around, it's a never miss for me. I haven't noticed the "um's" but even if there are too many remember these guys are not pros, they are doing it for the love of the club and to provide you content!

One day I will get around to that 5 star review...(Sorry don't use iPhone).

Better check with @Binmans PA and check we’ve got elocution sessions in @binman’s diary rather than electrocution sessions….

Yep, all booked in, in amongst the interviews for the forthcoming biography.

Thanks @binman, I hadn’t noticed that.

You might need to have a quiet word with your assistant, @Binmans PA😀

It wouldn't even let me add an apostrophe. But you're right, I buggered that up.

This is close to thread of the year so far. Really brilliant content peeps.

As others have noted, I see the poster has not put his/her/their hand in their/him/her pocket. Immediately disqualifies she/he/them (whatever) from having an opinion.

(When Parkin was coach of Carltank in the 1980's, he used to get lots of letters providing 'feedback'. He said he responded to the letters that came from paid-up members of the club only.)

Seriously???

And I have an opinion as well . . . for all three of the podcasters.

Could you please dumb-down the pod? It's way to intellectual for me. Can you be more like that nice Mr. Robinson on Foxtel maybe? It's all very well having stats at hand Rubbish Binny (name said with affection), but can you just tell me each week if that number 36 is going to kick any goals? And for next week's pod, can George tell me if he thinks Harmes from Melbourne can win the Brownlow this year? And Andy, May is my favourite player. Do you think he can win the goal kicking this year?

I haven't noticed, but I listen at 1.5 speed all my podcasts. 

The podcast producer could run it through Descript, really good at moving all the filler words and spaces in the final podcast version.

I have tried similar "remove" filler words and dead air apps before and they have always made it sound unnatural and creates a lot more post production work for me than I have time for.

Also I love the irony of a double post with advice on brevity. 😜

It's a baffling aspect of today's world that people get free content with hours of work behind it, yet complain as if they're a shareholder or something.

You do terrific work fellas and it has really grown beautifully over the years . If the pod had a flavour it would be umami 😘👌

It's also free to listen to or not.

Might be free to some - I pay 5 cents an hour to my ISP for the stream. Therefore I'm entitled to demand a high quality usage of my precious megabytes.

Some posters have said that the plodders podders are not professionals. I vehemently disagree. I know of no other place I can get consistently high quality, intelligent, thoughtful and insightful analysis of the footy, not unembuggared by blokeyness, mindless product placement or just plain old imbecileness.

Maybe he doesn't identify as a proper noun.

Improper noun then?

A long time ago but weren’t there proper nouns (capitalised) and common nouns though it probably now regarded as elitist or classist or colonialist or demeaning to use such differentiation. 


4 hours ago, whatwhat say what said:

i thought it just required three consecutive dots?

from first gogol search result (and thus, the only one that anyone will pay attention to):

An ellipsis ( ... ) consists of three evenly spaced periods and is used to indicate the omission of words or suggest an incomplete thought. In general, an ellipsis should be treated as a three-letter word, with a space, three periods and a space.
 

Scholars like my good self insist on little ums between our dots. Unspaced ellipses are for the likes of John Ralph, twitterists, and @WalkingCivilWar after too much caffeine.

Yes I was. Speaking of any ‘Mr Brains’ foods is strictly forbidden at Demonland.

With all due respect to the contributors, there’s absolutely zero doubt that the podcast would be twice as good if it were half as long.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
