A lot of people have made some very stupid comments here on this thread and they should be held to account! Next Wednesday night blame will be apportioned, those like me who were right all along will be vindicated. Those who made the wrong call get to choose between the Ricky Nixon or Peter Bell avatar for life. I think the blame apportioning should be carried out by committee and expect it could run for a week or two.

Biscuit fools begone.This is serious business. I have had two hours off, a quick bite to eat, a 15min power nap and am now ready to go the full remaining 72 hours.

Or over defence (and out)

I am on happy pills and have been for a number of years..they're quite good and after the last 50 years as a Melbourne supporter, my doctor regards as a requisite. Where was I.....pick 16 goes to hell where all the inmates are Demons and pick 16 lives happily ever after. I reckon with 3 days left...we can make the 500!

People here are just grasping at straws. This has happened to me because I am quite short and the counters at KFC ...quite high.

I have a secret sauce. Freo get pick 5 from BNE for Neale and Hogan goes to KFC for pick 6, 17 and 68, (family bucket) which he swaps for picks 22, 223 and 2 (spicy wings, nuggets and a coke) Bell refuses the wings but cleverly swaps the nuggets for a packet of darts which Hogan accepts and becomes a Marquis player. (nice Moustache and boots.)

Hogan flying back to Melbourne on the weekend...........will we get a comment from him?....press hounds will have to be waiting.

so it is over...like really.......perhaps freos exit is fake news

yep reckon freo will trade whitfield and suddenly give us 5 and this is not over.

So this is not over? This is a negotiating ploy by Freo? The Afl web story seems to imply this. The trade period has days to run. I'm seriously confused...what's next?

Great outcome! Didn't want this to happen. Fantastic result. Watch Hogan kick 50+ goals and sign a new contract with us next year. Errr..or is this real? I mean is that the end of it...really?

Yet another day........so whats the situation with Neale? Going not going?

Looking forward to May on Hogan at the G next year.

This is madness. We have a shot at a flag over the next few years and we are going to lose one of the best forwards in the game. Are we? Why would he leave now...to go to a bottom side? We should do all we can to retain our stars. FCS the boy is only 20 something. He would make a better backman than May...put Hogan at CHB.........If this comes to pass never ever draft an interstate player again!

You know I reckon Biff just wants to see me on 'Border Force.'

I'm on the bus to Adelaide Friday night. I have done bus trips in the past and they have all been Horrible! Now I hear they are selling flights here for $285......I could just scream........From Adelaide I am catching an aeroplane as I think its s a bit far to Hitch. The cheap option via Adelaide was all Squirrels idea...

The oldies will remember the bloke who used to run out onto the ground. in the finals, before the game, and plant a Demons flag in the turf. Around the half forward flank Gt S stand. He would get a huge cheer. Also I can't forget the bloke in the Melb cheer squad who carried into the ground a big hand bell..like a school bell. When it rang out we would all smile. I would go to the games ready to play fully kitted out in my Demons jumper shorts (Home or away) and boots. There were other kids as well and we had the freedom to run around anywhere. There police were on the field but they let us go....kids were allowed to run around then pretty much anywhere. I would go down the race and into the rooms and run out with the team. It was a different time. Two grounds I would take my jumper off to enter and put it on when I was over the fence and on the ground. Widy hill and Vic park....dangerous territory for little demons. I would often turn up in the long room in the mcc because I could get under or over every fence in the G. I would stare at all the trophies...once I came across the room with all the Premiership cups in a big trophy case....it was like I had reached heaven! The MCC bloke would eventually chuck me out Ha!

I'm working for Biffen....as a courier. It's like Uber food except the packages are smaller.

I'm Level 3 section 333.....hopefully this forward flank/pocket is all Demons sections 333 and 334. These are category 1 tickets and about the best seat in the place. Bought them at Greensborough newsagency. Lined up with all the Collingwood and Richmond supporters. At 10.30 they announced all sold out! Some very unhappy people there then....and outside a whole mob lined up in the carpark for the 2pm public sale! As soon as the ferals were sold out we (me and the one other Melbourne supporter) waltzed down to the front of the line, after being cleared by the shopping centre security as real Melbourne members (no trackie dacks), and allowed to wait at the sale point for 11am to arrive. I was actually pleased that we were going to Perth...for the first time. As we were casually having the operator find the best seats for us at Optus stadium a ruckus erupts in the car park when the AFL announces the have suspended the 2pm public sale. We ran out of there!

The last 5 minutes was agony....we were gone. I was sitting right behind the Punt Rd goals up in the great Southern stand when Gabelich ran with the ball from about 40 -50 m out on the members flank/robbie flower side. He wanted to make it a cert so didn't go for the kick but ran and bounced towards the Punt rd goal. I was literally dying...this is 25 minute mark of the last qtr. The forward 50 was deserted...but Barassi was after him absolutely flat out! ....maybe Ronald Dale was 20 metres behind him...but gaining fast. Every bounce Gabelich took he only just managed to recover the ball. The crowd was going nuts. I was standing on my seat....screaming get him Ron!....but he kicks it from the square...its a goal and we are devastated. Nobody was seated at this point. Collingwood are now in front by something like one or two points. I was out of my mind at this point.....its the bloody grand final we are going to lose at the death.....everybody around me is half crazy as well....could only be two or three minutes left.....when out of the blue, maybe at the 27 minute mark , Frog kicks that beauty ..........I went from one kind of delerium to the other in a split second. If god had burst through the clouds accompanied by a chorus of angels I wouldn't have noticed........the next ...two minutes?...........It was like I was on acid...standing on the wooden seat yelling blow the siren! Blow the bloody siren! and..........there it goes...we win! From the death to being saved!!!!! It remains perhaps one of my most vivid memories.

I'm going .......got a flight from Adelaide Sat 8am for $315 ... Virgin ......purchased this Saturday morning.........gets in to Perth 10am Sat........out midnite to Sydney.......$265 with Tiger.....really these prices are not bad. Overnight bus to Adelaide....the horror trip but I just have to go.

I've been in jail again Colin....don't think badly of me.

BBO is taking me in his Merc. I'm just a bit worried about being locked in the boot that long.

Squirrel reckons I've got cancer so I have to go too! I just hope i don't die at the game. www.givusyerferkinmoneyorillbashyafacein.org/handsup/imleavintown
