I have definitely been through each of these this season and can clearly remember each one. Fortunately, am now we’ll and truly in acceptance. 2019 is gone and there’s nothing I can do about it; may as well enjoy Brisbane playing some exciting football. However... I am quite confident that we’ll bounce back next season... so it’s possible I’m in ‘bargaining’ still and don’t even realise.

Gonna be tough to make the 8 now...

All a bit strange. There is zero chance of Roos taking a senior coaching position next year- MFC or Carlton. He may take a consultant role at CFC to top up the super, but nothing more. Roos wasn’t fired by the MFC; he left. He didn’t want to be a senior coach anymore due the the overwhelming demands it put on him and his family. If the club doesn’t want Goodwin, we don’t have to hope that Adelaide will bring him in; the club simply fires him. With that said, you don’t fire a coach 10 months after a preliminary final. Next year he may be under pressure, but it’s not there yet.

The hyperbole here is next-level ridiculous. Save the bemoaning our loss until after the match. Dees by 20.

This is a big get for the club; a genuinely world-class practitioner. Well done to everyone working behind the scenes.

I'm not as well versed on this issue as many on here, but this latest proposal/rumour seems a lot more realistic. Would plant us right in the heart of the Melbourne sports precinct.

Lever, May, Hibberd, Frost, Jetta, Lockhart, Salem and co need some continuity and game time together. The remaining rounds are invaluable in ensuring that we hit Round 1 2020 with all guns firing.

This is a stretch... and that’s being generous.

FWIW, I can't remember a year when those 'reports' haven't done the usual media rounds... not convinced we'll finish bottom two at any rate.

We've been after Langdon for (at least) 3 years, if he's keen, I think we'll snare him. Bit of negativity on him recently, but the kid can play and still has his best years ahead of him.

My take on Preuss is that he is a number 1 ruckman only. If we had a player of his calibre on our list in 2017 when Gawn went down with that bad hamstring injury, then we would have played finals that year. Preuss is insurance for Gawn going down; something that is definitely going to happen from time to time over the next few seasons. When Gawn misses a match or two, we can’t just forfeit the ruck contests, we need someone with the size, strength and experience to step right into that spot. If we can find a good ruckman through the draft to develop alongside them, then we’ll be very well placed in that area.

Zero chance of a 1st round PP for Gold Coast. Gold Coast’s issues have nothing to do with a lack of young talent and Brisbane’s turnaround will be looked upon as the model.

The guy’s a jet and we’ve been ‘linked’ with him for a while. He’d be worth a first round pick- don’t know about a top five pick though...

I’m sure we’d find something in the 2017 pre-season drink driving thread.

Jakovich traded or delisted? Including free agents like Rivers? Andy Lovell was an underrated loss.

Demonland does not have a good strike rate for predicting contract renewals. There wouldn’t be a single player on our list who hasn’t been a ‘delist’ or ‘trade for zero or nearest offer’

Or the selection of an overweight country kid who couldn’t even get a guernsey for the Nationals Champs at pick 4.

Always room for discussion, but I would think that the Melbourne and Carlton football clubs have conclusively put this question to rest.

Still we un-sighted... should we worry..?

FWIW... that's literally exactly what he did (and many would say, continues to do 2000 years after his death)

Saw him commenting on the Demonland instagram this morning - great to see a past player contributing.

I assume Winmar was being a divisive, virtue-signalling, social justice warrior, provoking a crowd who were exercising their freedom of speech in the spirit of true blue fun and banter...

Well outside 50... wonder if the team rule is to put it to the top of the square or to have a ping..?

Being available for finals is outrageous. When I first read the headline I though it was the whole season, which is swift and appropriate action. Being available to play finals for a top 4 team is completely unjust and sends the wrong message.

You provided the example - I'm asking for the context of your example. Godfrey retired 2007, so I'd suggest that your example has absolutely nothing to do with the booing that Goodes received in the last 18 months of his career.
