Jarrod Wade? 

...who used to look a bit like 'you' Ethan? Could be him, but a bit of weight and facial hair loss has been achieved:

Absolutely tone deaf clueless thread 

Agree.

Please Jimbo read Angus’s lips and public speeches over nearly exactly 18 mths are clear and consistent. 

Take notice of them.

Now you're interpreting Angus' wishes for him & telling us what he wants. 

Really reaching new levels of tone deafness.

You Cranky are notably deaf but Dumb as well.

FYI Angus agreed to a role early in 2024 to being a bench type assistant on game day but found after about 2 weeks he was not able to handle the role and was not keen and not  seen again.

the second indication of Angus not wishing to be involved was after his magnificent speech at the 2024 BNF night when he spoke and indicated he would not be around the Club in “his own way” at the end of his speech. 

If I am wrong on this then I apologise to Angus but I totally believe this is the correct Angus situation as of now ( and at end of 2024) 

So please don’t accuse me of being deaf and making up plans for Angus to not be seen around the Club. 

His speech on behalf of the Retirees at the AFL Brownlow as another opportunity to show his hand also resulted in a comment that he is uncertain about his future and could still be vague for a while yet. 

At the risk of typecasting Angus I feel that he has undoubtedly involved his 2 other loves in life ie a game of golf and of course his recent marriage to his sweetheart Danielle Frawley which is fact in case you have been away or on a sabbatical since late last year, but alas you have still posted your very forthright or quirky opinions of recent dates. 

Happy for you to check my post for accuracy but No true Demon fan would ever be in doubt what our Former No 10 great thought or said. 

My overlying memory of Gus will be the privilege of seeing him play in the GF at Optus Oval, and seated on the outer wing which I saw close at hand how he so magnificently kept us in the game with that heroic third quarter. 

We have been very lucky with our wingers over the years I have followed the Dees starting with Bluey Adams, Brian Dickson, Stan Alves, the great Robbie Flower,Stephan Tingay, Lingers and now The Duke if he doesn’t go to the backline ( or centre position as I believe he should. )

However that third quarter that greatly helped our magnificent Flag win in 2021 when the game was in dispute by Angus tops my memory above all those greats of the past or potentially the future as a vital team contribution in winning a game. 

I am 76 now but value Angus’s career as a most valuable one in our rise to the top and are so sad that  bad luck and a mongrel act has robbed us of our no 10 for his footy and his club and team ethos and spirit which was hard to replace last year. 

As with all of us we would like Angus to be back in the fold but we must respect his wishes and in time this may happen.

Lets cherish his memories and not embarrass him when IMO he has unmistakably stated his position at this early stage of his  retirement.

A bizarre response - thanks for the history of Dees wingmen.

The point I am making is that given what happened with Angus it is inappropriate for anyone to be commenting or second guessing what Angus is thinking or planning or what he may or may not do.

These are private matters for Angus to decide on.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
