Well Demonlanders I will be departing soon on the M1 from beautiful downtown Berwick to Goshville! 

I am fully prepared with Snake anti vax kit (not that I plan to get that close), anti Yowie mating cream, Gossamer hairspray, sunscreen, Vegemite sanger and fishing glove! 

Hopefully I can bring you incisive report in the genre of Robert G Barratt, Stephen King, Lachlan Mc Culloch, Enid Blyton and H.G Wells! If you see me, I'm the one up a tree with binoculars …

Stand by😎

    All good WJ, I’m across it. Anyone who forgets the Aerogard or sunscreen is welcome to hit me up. I’ll be the one who’s not swatting flies away.

    High flying KPP. I believe he’s signed on with the Casey Demons for 2025 in the hope of getting a list spot at Melbourne in the SSP if a position opens up.

    The 191cm, Johnny Weissmuller comes from another sport (swimming) so I would contend, he could be recruited as a Category B rookie. His age could be a problem.

    I don’t know who I should forewarn first… Jeffo or the Yowies.

    All very well but a fishing glove? 

    In the words of a fish shop owner, Please Explain!

    Forget the Aerogard, there are far better insect repellents out there.

    Bushman's is stronger and more effective as it has a higher DEET content.

    However,  the best I've ever used is an organic product called Nature's Botanical which requires only a small application and which flies absolutely hate.  It's active ingredients are rosemary and cedarwood.

    I find Bushman’s too strong as in when inhaled.

    watching Storm training rn. They look in great shape but not as fit as our boys. I’m the only spectator which is surprising. They’re super friendly people.

    Don't let the fact that he died get in the way of reincarnation as Tarzan or Jungle Jim.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
