Same prefix. Different suffix. One painful. One not (well so far).

I also think Tmac is the obvious ruckman fitness wise as it just CANT be JVR, but seems as though it’ll be Petty/Turner combo as TMac likely needed for 2m-Peter or Jones.. 

Petty back would be only way TMac plays ruck — I’d prefer this based on how fwd line looked LW.  

I thought tmac still had issues that allow him to play well in defence running forward.  But manoeuvrability still a problem preventing him being effective around the ground and forward.

Jvr won't be hitting the scoreboard if he spends more time rucking.

A fascinating game coming up.

I am preemptively declaring this as the worst umpired game of the season. 
The list of umpires is as inspiring as a wet sock.

Checking in from a music festival in Basque country. (#not a humblebrag, but maybe a bit probably ). 

The last two days I've seen Massive Attack, Air, Underworld and Prodigy (and Grace Jones). 

There has to be some tea leaves among that lot. ? 

I don’t think so. 

But maybe to avoid a teardrop the sexy bit of the team can be born slippy and smack my [censored] up. My [censored] of course being the Scott brothers…

We must be careful to not be slaves to the rythym however…

As a rule, I have worried about our form trailing to the 'also rans'. Our new look (that DL enthusiasts begged for, for months and months) has finally seen the penny drop as far as the coaches are concerned, and including our personnel loses of late, it is possible to feel confident that we can beat Essendrug whose ability is inflated. Dees by about 20 points. (Channel 7 commentators, commenting on tonight's game stated clearly that Essendrug would win the match, as they need only teams with large memberships to make it to the finals. This explains much of their commentary this year and perhaps, the influence that the bigger clubs wield over the media expenditures, umpiring decisions and game conduct assessments for the majority of the competing teams). 

Last night showed how low the Pies are at the moment c.f. last year so bombers still haven't beaten anyone yet on which I'm hanging my confidence hat tonight

McDonald warming up with the midfielders, likely he will be doing a bit of the ruck work tonight 

The drizzle looks enchanting under the lights.

there wasn’t an appropriate emoji to respond to this

eye roll would be handy!

don’t get me wrong, I love a terrible joke! just ask my wife

My phone is saying no rain, it’s dry, no precipitation. How come I’m getting wet? 

Symphonic Smoke on the Water FTW.


Best of luck dees from the west coast of Ireland.

They use one of those pizza cutters. 

Oh no. Oh no. I was not ready for Kozzie Pickett's tiny baby in a full koala onesie to keep warm in the rain.

That is superb and no matter what else happens tonight that is getting the 6 votes from me postgame.


Am I calm because I’m quietly confident of a good win by the boys, with likely a big role played by our kids, or because I’m blissfully ignorant of being taught another lesson by the bombers? 

Guess we’ll find out soon!!!

(i think we win tonight, big game from Kozzy and Clarry and Petty will play a big part as well).

let’s go!! 🔥💙❤️

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
