    Vids to come shortly.

    More importantly… all-time favourite songs:

    Bowser: Sweet Lies - Fleetwood Mac

    BBB: The Car Song - The Cat Empire

    Clarrie: I Remember Everything - Zach Bryan

    Langers: Heroes - David Bowie


    Same question, totally different ways of answering: 

    Bowser didn’t have to think. I had barely finished the word “… song?” and he blurted out his choice.

    BBB gave me the beautiful backstory of how when he and Hester first met they bonded over their love of The Cat Empire and attended many of the band’s gigs.

    With Clarrie it was like getting blood from a stone. It took so long to get an answer that I was almost in the rooms at AAMI, and we began the convo at Gosch’s! At first he called out to Max “Hey Gawny! What’s my all-time favourite song?” Maxy said a song title and Clarrie said, “Nah it’s not that one anymore.” He kept saying he had several in mind but he  couldn’t pick just one. In the end it took for me to say, “If I had a gun to your head right now, what would be your FAVOURITE BLOODY SONG???”

    Langers didn’t have to think long about it. He said, “Heroes, David Bowie.” I asked, “ Bowie fan? Or just a fan of that song?” He said, “Huge Bowie fan.” I showed him my Bowie tattoo and he was like “That’s so cool!” And I’m not 100% sure but I think we’re engaged now 😝

    edit: two years ago I asked Goody the question and he chose My Happiness by Powderfinger. I asked him today if that’s changed and it hasn’t. Guess he is stubborn after all 😉

    Can't believe they've dropped Laurie after his game last week.

    Didn't think Tholstrup was playing great footy to be an automatic inclusion and if Hunter comes in off poor form and recent injury then it's just baffling. No disrespect to Hunter but would rather see Woewodin or Howes on the wing than him.

    Where are you hearing Laurie’s been dropped?

    No, it’s a baby born after miscarriage or stillbirth.

    Just going by your videos. He was training with the seconds team in the bottom two videos you posted and I didn't sight him in any of the clips with the senior team.

    I like him, don't get me wrong. But his freo game was well below the standard before he got concussed. Expected inconsistencies given its his first year. Not an automatic selection for mine at this stage of his career. I suspect he'll be a permanent best 22 player next year though.

    Well most people usually melt when he's in the team so I'm predicting generalise apathy with a hint of confusion.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • NON-MFC: Round 14

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
