My hatred of Collingwood is enough to say that today is a great day for football. Nathan "FIGJAM" Buckley retired without a premiership.

The bloke left Brisbane to lose 2 premierships to them! And a 3rd for good measure.

May he always be remembered as the bloke who left a triple premiership side to play for the filth! Amen.

All together now, in case she doesn't get it :P

Ha Ha ! I wonder how many messages can be posted at the same time. I wonder if we could all post that we hate Carlton at the same time. We could go for the record.

Despite all the love being shown to Buckley in this thread, are we at all interested in getting Buckley to the club in a development/assistant role?

id take him. he knows his football. and those taking pleasure in the fact he never won a premiership, bit harsh considering we know how sad it is that Neitz will never win one.

Hopefully he'll also be remembered for smearing his blood on Ling.

I'm a bit disappointed with everyone. Sure, he's up himself and thinks he's the best thing since sliced bread. BUT above all that is the fact he was a sensational footballer. I for one congratulate him on his career. And if the opportunity arose for him to become an assistant at the club, I would jump at it.

No you are not evil, you are sane, for that is how we all should feel!

Suck balls! 01, 02, 03 could have been yours and possibly 04.

enjoy your 2 runner up medals!

Quite possibly the most despicable act in the history of football.

Lewis biting Viney fades in comparison.

A special 'Bucks moment' was in the GF when he won the Norm Smith medal in the losing side against guess who.

It's infamous now but worth repeating.

The judges put their votes in at the 15 minute mark of the last quarter to be ready for the presentations. FIGJAM ahead by a whisker over Voss at this stage. Voss dominates the last 15, swings the game, shows leadership etc etc. BOG performance when it counts.

Oops. Too late. The votes are cast and on their way downstairs to the dais in the wings.

I think even FIGJAM was a little embarrassed in accepting the medal, but then again hubris is not a word not in FIGJAM's vocabulary.

All that said and done, I wouldn't ever doubt his ability as a footballer.

nothing beats that

8 weeks wasnt it?

I can't remember.

But the high accolades attributed to this guy in the media are unbearable. Robbie Muir is considered a dog but has nothing on Bucks.

Don't want him anywhere near the MFC - would just go back to Collingwood anyway.

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
