Very interesting to know, though; have I come on purpose or have I simply walked here by chance? Raskolnikov.

Raskolnikov?

Thought it was fritter after he found himself in the defensive arc applying some all team defensive pressure.

Not been on Demonland much recently so not sure if this has been discussed anywhere.

Where is Gus these days? I've always believed and hoped he'd continue to be involved with the MFC post his playing days. Although I fully understand if he needed a break from 'everything' after his magnificent playing career was cruelly cut short.

Maybe footy is not part of short term thinking, but he is so loved and respected as well as intelligent and insightful, that he would be a huge acquisition to the club in any role he and the club deem suitable.

Anyone have an insight to how he's travelling and what he's up to?

I went to one of those events where a few players come and talk etc. The one I went to was Maysy, Clarry, and Max. They were asked about Gus and if they’d been in contact with him. They had and said he got into some exclusive commerce or economics program at Oxford that only takes 30 people per year and he was going. They didn’t give a ton of detail, just that he either was studying in London or getting ready to go.

No idea how accurate it is, but I can’t imagine they’d say something so specific if it wasn’t true.

  • 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 The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.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.

  • 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.
