I couldn't stop smiling watching him yesterday. He was AWESOME!

I was thinking the same thing hardback. They use 'streamed' for Kayo and 'broadcast' for Foxtel. I am hoping it still means we can see it live on Fox. I read it as a huge marketing push for new Kayo customers. Time will tell.

My Foxtel guide doesn't reflect that. Of course, they have been known to be wrong when looking a week ahead. Did you see it somewhere?

Daisy Pearce calls time on a stellar career
Palace Dees replied to Redleg's topic in Melbourne Demons
Thank you DIO. This the most astonishing Aussie Rules playing record we will EVER see. Playing at the top level possible for her whole career. On top of this, she is my favourite commentator, has a genius level football IQ, articulate and seems the most wonderful human being. All posters here know how blessed we have been to call her ours. The AFL community has also been blessed and I sincerely hope her multiple skills will be best utilised for the betterment of the game. More than anything I wish her a happy and contented retirement. She so deserves it. ❤💙 -

Death Riding Fremantle 2023 - Feathered Cap Edition
Palace Dees replied to adonski's topic in Melbourne Demons
I think filming Luke with his mates was a bit much. https://fb.watch/i1WDV3MneB/ -
Ah Geelong.......Victoria's Adelaide 🤠

I like Turner but surely Petty has to be in the team. Either way, we look well placed to be a huge threat this year.....

Cox was a damn good footballer. Gawn is a Hoover Damn good footballer.

This is a forum based on emotional bias, not facts. Shame on you!

Our interesting mix of talls for 2023
Palace Dees replied to deelusions from afar's topic in Melbourne Demons
Coincidentally, so am I. Got more time due to Covid 😷 One thing I read yesterday was the credit Max gave to Luke Jackson re improving Max's footwork post stoppage, his ability to spread quickly. He speaks of getting power into the first 3 steps after a ruck contest. He was always a great ruckman but It definitely improved his all round game. He wouldn't have kicked a 55m goal on the run like against Geelong in the PF 2 years before that game. This in something Grundy can improve on and if he can, those 2 will be even more formidable together. -
Geelong and Collingwood also have had the biggest duckers (you can swap the d for an f if you like) in recent years in Selwood and Ginnivan. They practice turning the legit chest high tackle into a free. Heaven forbid they let it happen to them!

Kozzy Pickett Re-Signs for 4 Years
Palace Dees replied to Timothy Reddan-A'Blew's topic in Melbourne Demons
Thanks Lord Nev, on bestowing your 961st facepalm upon me (I'm sensing a theme here 🤔) I believe a prize should go to the 1000th which shouldn't be to far away. I'm certainly going to give it a crack. -
Kozzy Pickett Re-Signs for 4 Years
Palace Dees replied to Timothy Reddan-A'Blew's topic in Melbourne Demons
Sorry Demonstone, your point is well made. This is not the right thread, but may I add just one more point re Burgess. I had a quick review of his super impressive CV. Appointments at the Socceroos, Arsenal, Liverpool, Port Adelaide, Melbourne and now Adelaide. None (so far) have lasted 3 years. That is the point many of us here are making. So glad he came to us and brilliant at what he can achieve in that time frame, but the methodology is just not sustainable and he knows it. Now, back to Kozzy 😉 -
https://territoryfm.com/archives/podcast/smwyg-jay-washington-a-k-a-black-ivy The common link. Maybe Darren Burgess knows the PT from his days at Arsenal and recommended him to Tom. Tom worked with him the previous season too. It also makes sense that if he has 2 AFL players in his stable that they train together.

Kozzy Pickett Re-Signs for 4 Years
Palace Dees replied to Timothy Reddan-A'Blew's topic in Melbourne Demons
By his own admission, Burgess' first love is soccer, especially EPL, that is the majority of his background. That environment is very much instant success or you are out! That is what he achieved with us and he will always be revered for it. I don't blame him for our fade in '22, the fault lay with the coaching staff who though that style of fitness coaching was sustainable long term. Griffiths followed a Premiership formula and to a degree was dammed if he did and dammed if he didn't. I hope there is a highly collaborative fitness approach to this season to ensure we have the ultimate goal as our main focus. A Bart Cummings approach if you like. -

This view won't be popular because of the flag, but I think there is a fair degree of accuracy in this. By all accounts a large degree of resilience was achieved by pushing through pain and minor injuries but it was always highly likely come back to bite us. Hopefully no long term affects for players going forward. -
Demonstone's Juicy January Jocular Jamboree
Palace Dees replied to Demonstone's topic in Melbourne Demons
It was actually Demonstone who advised me Timothy (very graciously I might add). WCW was mentioned only to ensure I meet the EFFS test. I fear your Norm Smith puzzle may put you at risk. 😰 -

Oops......seems it's been done before. All Melbourne Cup winning jockeys. OK, at the risk of WCW letting down my car tyres, I will work on something a bit more unique. -

Timothy has cracked it! I'll leave it open for a while for others to ponder. -

Timothy has supplied an answer that is on the right track, but this team has a very specific link.
