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.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
