Demonsone

10 years and the only key forward who we produced was Hogan, sure we won flag with hybrids but are we missing a Curnow or a McKay

All BS aside tell me teams getting less travel are not more advantageous… imagine this in a finals, tell me pies playing last 5 games in melb before the finals wasn’t a clear advantage our club is cursed Tom Morris & Follow @tommorris32 Not ideal for@melbournefc following last night's loss... 20 minutes into the flight home this morning the plane had technical issues, forcing it to turn around & land back in Sydney. Now the Demons are awaiting another flight, likely in the early

What hurts is seeing a 70mill training start of the arg centre within walking distance of the SCG in a rugby state and the mfc getting kicked around looking at Caulfield with zero confirmed

Chandler, Laurie & Schace are not afl standard …our fwd situation issues haven’t changed since Hogan, sure won a flag with Brown & Tmac but are past it yet still on our list! Our recruiters have done a great job with gems in defenders but can’t believe premiership team not been able to attract a few agent fwd or get a trade done!

Correct both flags by tigers & Dees were difficult to win considering no home ground advantage and living in hubs away from families with babies & young kids the mental strength needed .. the references to covid cups is BS

Can’t wait to see the Giraffe on roller skates Brown who’s knee will blow up & Tmac slowness had their time and will be 0-2 after the dogs game Petracca great player no question but needs to get mongrel in him too nice, all for playing the ball not the player but seems to nice

Whilst it’s the 1st game some questions need to be asked in the 7 yrs with 8th coming up of Goodwin he’s had 10 finals with 5 wins 2 x straight sets & a Flag which most teams would take the Flag. Not sure what the hurry was in extending his contract after it was extended in 2022. Our game style after 1 game looks the same, they haven’t been able to fix our fwd issues in years and only Hogan in the last decade looked like a forward, Tmac & Brown bodies have been done since 2021 flag yet as team in the premiership window we haven’t been able to attract a power fwd & yes hard to find, instead we invested in Grundy who is now gone which was a poor blunder buy the club and who will replace Max?

I don’t think you fluke winning flags they were emphatic for the season plus their finals, correct our 2 key fwds Tmac & brown are gone and we haven’t been able to replace them, they provided great contests, vs young Jvr & schache just can’t present. The loss of Jackson has hurt who would have taken over Gawn, Not sure why they didn’t try to get hogan after his departure from Freo. Not sure why Goodwin was extended beyond 2024, yeah only first game but since the flag 4 finals loses… maybe the cliff is coming

Watching & hearing the same bs lines from Goodwin presser yeah it’s the first game but still can’t convert, got smashed in the middle, must feel great watching Grundy killing, I hope I’m wrong but another 2yrs of this?

The whole Grundy trade was a disgrace the way both Goodwin & club handled this! I just wonder did Max loose the selfless & become selfish?? I luv max is our only living premiership ruckman and a champion but I just wonder was either it’s me or him you choose???? Yet he’s 32 and 1 bad injury from retirement

Stafford was there in th flag .. I think it stems down to no brown or Tmac who were no match winners but created contest .. loss of Jackson is starting to hurt

Can you believe Schache was a sub over Grundy in the final v Carlton .. how the hell is this guy getting a game

Since 2014 yet produce a fwd! Schache should never play again Jvr i can excuse as still young .. Goodwin can hang his head in shame with the Grundy trade

Oliver no way his ready

Well done goody Grundy is valued at the swans

Unbelievable [censored] first 1/2

Great see the missing of goals continues

Anyone explain why we would get Billings & start him as a sub??

Only a practice game ..

As dees supporters we need to stop banging on about Maynard. What’s done is done let’s not give the filth supporters ammunition

His Journey & story should be plastered all over the change rooms and be a mentor to young players to show no to take their time for granted & what can be achieved coming from adversity. Makes my blood boil when dumb decisions are made by players who take their time for granted and not only hurt themselves but the club!

Troy Chaplin said they were focusing on other parts of the game not on the fwd line

Was asked the question so needed to answer.. very honest .. I agree with u only if they are saying how good things are etc

The jinx & curse continues .. our forwards have had the injury curse for decades, Schwartz, Lyon, jackovich, brown, Tmac,

Nice move dees Grundy was useless hey
