It’s their home game so they control all the ‘activations’ pregame and halftime. Even if it was our home game it wouldn’t happen anyways. The most we were free to do in round one was to all wear Gussy helmets, but we can’t wear them on Monday since we’ll be wearing this year’s Big Freeze beanie.

I’ve been PM’d some awesome banner content suggestions from posters on here. Thing is, I doubt they’d even be considered. Remember, the AFL don’t want the Gus travesty highlighted, for obvious reasons 😑

You’re saying that some thing gus related would be kyboshed by the AFL stasi?

Of course! Pretty much everything we do has to be signed off by the AFL. They don’t want attention drawn to this, attention won’t be drawn to it. End of story.

Unbelievable. 
 

Be fked if they get any more of my money. 
 

[censored] that. Rather give me money to the Augusta National for spectator entry fees, or any of the Open courses. 
 

And people laugh off conspiracy theories

We are hurting 

an unMelbourne like performance 

looking like JVR will be fit to go 

no training loads 

missed Lever but Tommo and Tmcd covered the prior week ok

pride Ourselves on contested footy 

lots of spin 

goody lost me with the “lean in” phrase … another new corporate phrase like “Hands-in”’aka a team meeting or “pivot” aka to change something

Simon … if you must, please “pivot” the team away from overhandballing overhandballing overhandballing !!! Killing us with turnovers and skill errors and cut off so predictably

I love our boys, but the filth people just do my head in. 

I presume you're a paid up member of the club?

i was never going to make it down and just found out that Bridge Road Brewery will have the match on the big screen here in Beechworth.  Ben Kraus ( who has led the brewery since inception with Maria) is a bombers supporter, and interested in seeing how we perform and how the bombers can match up to the best, so has arranged for the coverage.  I did have a BBQ planned with a blues supporting mate who always supports the dees against any other side. He is still sufferable. But I will be a poor loser tomorrow should that happen and concerned that the brewery might attract some Collingwood supporters, Ill be trying to direct them to the Nicholas Hotel where mine host is a rabid Collingwood supporter .

Any other Demons in town coming down to the brewery?

I get conniptions on hearing some of the terminology Goody uses. I really hope this isn't how he speaks to the players and is just reserved for media conferences.

Yes - annoying. I’m now able to go, but can’t get any tickets at all, even with Trident membership, which I think gives access to GA tix for away games in Melbourne? Looks like it wil be a 100k blockbuster?

Really interested in selection this week.

Why the delay and goody saying let's take 24 hours more and sleep on a possible decision.

I sense something big?

Isn't that all the more reason to do something.  Doesn't have to be official cheer squadn action, surely?

In Moyhu here enjoying the sunshine. Lots of breath testing stations around this weekend. Last night covered all exits/entries Snow Rd-Wang Whitfield Rd. Lots of wineries and Breweries open for their big weekend. Enjoy the brewery and the match!.:)

Incredibly unlikely IMO. Clarrie has been going OK, just not at his usual sensational best.

With the bye one week away I will be amazed if anyone is out "managed". When was the last time that happened at selection for us?

Im really hoping the Kolt comes in for Mcadam. Think he deserves another crack.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
