Anti sausage roll propaganda.
It’s Un-Australian, and I won’t stand for it.

It's a tough call on the humble snag roll, agreed. I once lived near a great bakery that made huge phlegm sandwiches (vanilla slices) really well - after a year of having a couple each week, I stopped this treat and lost nearly eight kilos within 5 months. Diet does seem to be important, heh?

    Sounds like depression to me mate.  You need more sugary treats to cheer you up.

    I'm thinking you did get the allusion, Bin, but, just in case...

    An allusion directed at me by my parents in my dietarily carefree youth.

    Insert yummy foodstuffs.

    Saints have snapped up Norwood's grand final / premiership BOG, Harry Boyd, who I, and others, promoted on here.

    I'm thinking - or at least hoping - we've now upgraded on that prospect with AJ.

    Prove me right, Aidan! 😄

    Boyd will be a good backup ruckman for the Saints.  AJ brought in for a different role, one which should free up JvR which will be integral to our 2025 campaign. 

    I think (am hoping) AJ the better jigsaw piece even if he may not be the better player of the 2.

    Agreed. Boyd looks like his only position will be first ruck and he is very undersized for that at 198cm. We've got Campbell as our back up ruck, who I think is the better option for the short term.

    Johnson was brought in to play as a forward who pinch hits in the ruck.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
