I’ll be at Gosch’s today to watch training. Hopefully *someone else is there and a proper training report will be submitted. I won’t be talking to the boys today, I’m sure the last thing they need is a certified nuffie annoying the bejesus out of them. ☹️

*what a shame Kev had to 86 Demonland.

    The weather yesterday and today is a reflection of how we are feeling here in Demonland.

    Dagnabbit I’m already here. I mean, I have to go to the Demon Shop, but I could’ve done that before the match on Sunday. They clearly decided to change the venue, maybe due to Sunday’s debacle. Oh well I might watch Collingwood train on the other oval here. Dontchya hate it when you are likely gonna see Maynard but forgot to bring a baseball bat?!

     

    JK I’m not condoning violence by any stretch. But if I did, y’all would set up crowd funding to post bail for me, right? 😁

    full on training with plenty of physicality

    Thanks CF, that makes sense. Doesn’t apply to Fritta though, he hasn’t worn a mouthguard since playing in the juniors and that was only because they made him wear one. Silly bugger.

    In case anyone is wondering, they’re not at Casey Fields either. Maybe they’ve found one huge naughty corner. 😩

    Haha that's funny...really Fritta doesn't wear mouth guard?  Geez he's asking for trouble isn't he, thought he would have learned from Jackson getting his mouth all smashed up.

    He refuses to wear one, much to his parents’ and girlfriend’s chagrin. I think it’s coz it makes him gag 🤷‍♀️

    I was of the same mindset  in my teenage years and the regret was profound after attempting to take a Russell Robertson type ‘hanger’ , losing balance , then landing on the steel fence, mouth first😱

    6 months of dental therapy later, I was fortunately able to retain my bottom front teeth , 3 of which had been indented 45 degrees upon impact🤦‍♂️

    I should copy and paste this and send it to Fritta. Or better still, to his girlfriend and/or parents since it wouldn’t be ignored.

    What a traumatic experience for you 😢

    He might be like me and just can't wear them, they just were too uncomfortable.

    I also have a slight underbite so it made it even worse, don't think Fritta does but I've not looked that closely tbh

    It's the least he could do after missing that last game.

    Methinks No. 31 is referring to Eddie Everywhere, not our Ed. Speaking of our Ed, he’s perfectly entitled to attend his sister’s wedding o/s, especially when players miss a game for the birth of their child.

    Of course he is, just being silly.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
