Amazing what an academy and father son picks get you !!! 


Still smart recruiting. No second rate scrubbers.  Neale. Cameron. Daniher. Dunkley.  Take note !!!

    Absolutely Oscar McInErnery's energy in the medal presentation.

    Pure goofy, loving joy.

    Suspect that has been a big part of keeping the team upbeat during some rough early times.

    Apparently he was very upbeat all week & didn't moan about his injury or missing out

    Absolutely putrid grand final. Game was worse than the pre-game.

    That was my second life lesson, don’t whine, feel sorry for yourself or give time being negative about something that you can’t change. The Big O’s excitement during and after the game (especially for his replacement) was beautiful.

    11 players played every game. Consistency helps. 

    But they also had the depth to cover for McInerney, Coleman and McCarthy (plus Gardiner and Doedee).

    Fantastic list management and fitness. Not a coincidence.

    For Sydney, when the going got tough they fell apart and you’d think the scars of 2022 has something to do with that. Their tall forwards are barely better than ours and they couldn’t compete aerially against Brisbane’s defence.

    All the more reason to believe that if we get some of sh*t together in terms of game plan (Bassett) is a nice inclusion, then we are right in the thick of it.

    Last 2 premiers aren’t absolutely dominant like we were and other great teams before us. Brisbane are still far from invincible in spite of a flag.

    It's a bad movie on repeat for Sydney.

    The Buffalo Bills lost 4 straight superbowls in the 90s, by the time the last one came along the loss seemed a forgone conclusion. Are Sydney too traumatised with this group?

    Well the only logical conclusion from this is that our boys need to have a wild footy trip, and a poorly managed WhatsApp group.

    I thought we had enough of the media bashing us up.

    If ever there was a year to do it, this was it. Such an even season. Top 4 made up of seriously flawed teams.

    You could argue it was the worst top 4 in years

    Watching Brisbane today made me realise how bad our skills are at times.

    Brisbane just run hard for each other and create space, they don't fumble and there forward line is open & they don't get in each other's way.

    Happy the Lions and Fagan but worried about them when they add Ashcroft next year

    They bat so deep. Blokes like Ah Chee are their 10-15th best player and is so skilled

    Could be the case if they lose another one within the next few seasons. But at the moment, I put it down to a lack of experience on the MCG and larger grounds in general. They also have a heap of flashy type players that play for themselves.

    Four lost GFs in a row

    How do you even rock up to preseason?

    Fans must be in pieces. But they only have themselves to blame

    Blokes like Heeney Warner Gulden completely choked on the big stage

    Going out in straight sets for us two years in a row.

    Yep.

    At least we made a fist of it.

    And came very close despite injuries at umps.

    Swans have no excuse.

    The most lackluster effort in a granny by any club for eons.

    In it for twenty minutes then went to sleep.

    Going to haunt them until they lose another.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • 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.
