You can stop waiting. I’m done pleading with you to ease up on the relentless bagging of the Club, publicly as well as privately and in every thread. I’ve wasted so much time already. Because that’s all this is… a waste of time.

I thought you were thick and didn’t understand why I was upset. Now I see that you DO understand but you’re gonna go ahead and continue doing it regardless.

You see, it DOES matter where comments are made. I (at first, politely) requested that we leave off bagging the MFC in this NON-MFC thread. I think that’s a fair request. Clearly, you don’t.

And to think I went in to bat for you when you were banned from DL. I practically begged the mods to give you another chance. The irony… you’ll be the reason I eventually bail. 

Give it a rest, this is equally as tiresome. Consider putting WYL on ignore or use the report function.

It's a footy forum, not War and Peace

    No extra technology was needed in this case. Just some old-fashioned honesty.  Did the TV commentators even say anything when it was replayed?

    Yes there is that too. All these Commentators are employed under the “AFL” umbrella, so they are not going to rock the Gravy Train too much. 
    Whateley goes harder than most, but even he is not going to jeopardise his job

    We almost caught Carlton. Think we were down 35 points at one stage in that game.

    not currently shadow of ourselves   Something is going on and its not good  Doomsday if loose to North     quite possible  How can wheels fall off so bloody quickly.   As for the Filth    ...     armchair ride from umpires as usual  God I hate them

    I honestly cannot understand how that Norf mark wasn't paid 50m in the last 2 mins. Two guys three steps over the mark. Clear as day. The sort of vision the umpires boss would use to explain giving a 50. Clarko will go bizerk at the AFL over the umpires.

    It's too easy to say that Norf only have themselves to blame, but had the correct decision been paid, we would be congratulating them on a victory well deserved. The difference was a wrong decision by an umpire.

    me too

    the commentators said he went to play on but he didn’t.

    Very begrudgingly, you have to admire the Pies’ determination and belief. Incredible. To do it time and time again. (Umpiring aside)

    And the tackle on Crisp on the boundary just before WHE's releasing kick. He just let go of it in the tackle with prior opp. You could hear the commentators groan when it wasn’t paid.

    North played like they were scared in the last quarter.  Some didnt want the ball to come to them for fear of making a mistake.

    But if he did play on then it should have been play on, not 'go back and have your kick'.  99% of the time in  that situation it is either play on or 50m.

    Why is it your responsibility/business to beg the mods to bring that person back? Seems unnecessary.

    Well you’d best be getting used to the tedium. If I have to see a Dees pile-on in the NON-MFC thread every week you’ll have to see me asking people to stop doing it.

    I don’t put anyone on ignore because it’s pointless when you still have to see their cr@p when someone quotes them.

    Also pointless to report SWYL’s posts because as far as I know constant disparagement of the Dees in a NON-MFC thread isn’t a breach of Demonland rules. Hence, I asked for this to stop, that being my only avenue. If I could report him I’d have done it ages ago.

    So, I guess I’ll see you back here on the NON-MFC thread next week.

    Can you not see the irony of what you are writing on the "NON-MFC thread"?

    Get help, please. I'm concerned for you

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
