:rolleyes:

The Coodabeens are fantastic.

Greg Champion's songs are so funny and witty as Rhino pointed out because they are so true.

The more that people complain, the more songs that they will write.

Plus, they know a thing or two about football.

Quite right.They are a football institution..People should not take "the snow jokes" so seriously..Its not as though he does not bag other sides...

I cant for the life of me see why people see in or listen to Rex Hunt.

One of the most self centred, self focussed, hypocritical and dishonest windbags in the media.

I enjoy 3AW's coverage and I'm not sure where you're going with this comment, particularly the "hypocritical and dishonest" part of it. Being self centred and self focussed is far more prevalent on MMM from my listening experience.

I don't find GC's songs offensive, just dull, so I don't listen. Also is the reason I don't listen to the ABC's commentary if I can avoid it. Maybe they need to draft in Michael Holding from their cricket team to give it some life...

Its your choice whether you enjoy 3AW or not.

My comments about Rex is that he has made a number of public statements condemning people for certain behaviours which he has been most guilty of and his dishonesty has been to the public embarrassment and humilitation of his wife and family.

The problem with Rex is that it is all about Rex. I dont find him either incredibly knowledgeable about the game, his comments incisive or entertaining. In fact, its difficult to follow the game because Rex is more concerned about Rex and not the game.

I note 3AW has given him a long overdue kick in the pants.

Agree with the article. It was an eerie feeling at the start of the game. There was no atmosphere and none of the usual noise you hear at the start of a game.

Greg Champion would probably say the Demon fans were "at the snow" but it's still an interesting point. There wasn't much red and blue to be seen at the ground. Melbourne supporters fall off the bandwagon much quicker than most other clubs and it's one of our major weaknesses. We are bleeding financially and our fans aren't showing up or supporting their club.

It's no use complaining about the advantages Collingwood gets with the fixture because their supporters always stick fat no matter where they are on the ladder. That's why the AFL bends over for Eddie on almost every issue.

3AW didn't give Rex so much of a kick in the pants as they did to Ralph Horowitz his producer who I know is a died in the wool Demon supporter from birth. They also sacked Hutchy who was actually not a bad contributor to the programme. They kept the others including Rex who's responsible for most of the anal humour which caused the station's drop in ratings. Anyhow I don't listen to him any more. Unlike most Demon supporters, I prefer going to the game rather than listening in!

When I go to the football I often see people listening to the radio ;)

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
