I hope someone knocks out Judd. Thatd what I really want, even more than a win.

I want to see that money hungry [censored] get carried off on a stretcher, to the cheers of Demon fans

do you think we can do it ?

we are going with some carlton fans and they seem to think we are the joke side of the AFL

We are!

We can win, but should we?

If we help Carltank get another Priority pick (they could get poss' picks 1 & 2), I will POSSITIVELY go right off, Fair dinkum, the teams we don't want to help get the cream is Carltank & the Tiges ( who we play twice this year) & the Blue oyster boys once.

The teams I'd like to beat are Freo, Wet toast, & Saints.

We can win because Carlton are at least as shite as us plus they have made losing part of their culture.

Jamar vs. Kruezer- If Jamar doesn't fall on him awkwardly and crush him to death at the first bounce, we're screwed.

He can then do a Barry Hall on Judd and leave the game as "the guy who knocked out Judd" instead of "the guy who got 1 possession a game over 4 seasons".

This is definitely a danger game for the Blubaggers.... without trying too hard they'll probably win and use up one of their games they can win and stil lget a prize !!

They'll be sweating on this one !! :lol:;):rolleyes:;):lol:

please can we win this one to show judd what an awful side he plays for, no matter how much money they throw about. this is the one result i reallly want this year!

btw, listening to the wafl results & votes, natanui wasn't in the best players, got, i think, 16 possessions. the boy rich who plays for subi seems to be considered the best of the WA talent this year.

I doubt it. Who have we got to stop fevolva? Also if we do stop him whos going to kick any goals for us? Still havent found a forward this year. If only we could trade players after completion of rounds like in supercoach.

If i could choose WHICH games melbourne would rop this season, it would be both against Carltank. I cannot sit back and watch them add a 4th number 1 pick into a nice pool of young kids.

I would not mind losing this game, as long as it is not by 20+ points. I do NOT want Calrtank getting the number 1 pick.

In all honesty, I think we COULD win, but I am not sure what our intentions are or Carltanks this season, so anything could happen.

i would rather we play with dignity and actually try to win before its all too late and weve forgotten how to win

its all good to say "lets play the young bloods week in week out and get extra draft picks" but you have to instill a winning culture or they're not gonna be used to winning and knowing how to win...it was like when we played the doggies at TD last year: we were always in the game and with under a minute left, were in front thanks to a great sylvia contested mark...instead of getting numbers in defense with 39 seconds to go, we tried to take risks and the bulldogs got a goal to hit the lead and were then signalled by their captain for almost their entire team to flood back at that stage, something we should have done

anyway, thats a random story but for a lot of of our younger players like morton, who have still not won and are playing every week, their gonna get used to playing in a losing side that is too flat to actually win and are used to just getting by each week and thinking about their own game... they wont know how to play with excitement and flair

what im trying to say is that i desperately hope we can win this one...i really do...for dignity's sake

Not a chance in Hell of us beating the Blues next week

We need to keep playing the kids and get ready for the mother of all Clean Outs at the end of the year.

Not sure its that easy. Holland, Neitz and, I think, White are out of contract, so OK. But Robbo, Green and Bruce are not - Green and Bruce might be trade-able - but not for 1st rnd picks. So who else?

Posted

its easier to trade players IN contract !! lol

Posted

hahaha...i think i might change my mind after this week's carlton effort...i hope we win but i find it unlikely

Posted

If we dont beat Carlton next sunday arvo then you can all say goodbye to season 2008 because the next games we have after the blues are

Round 6- Brisbane GABBA

Round 7- fremantle MCG

Round 8 - Adelaide AAMI

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
