Delusional demon 82

You know it’s a big celebration in the coaches box when “stone cold” Craig Jennings loses his [censored] ...

Let’s hope this is why pert has been noticeably silent during all of this , he should be already orchestrating this behind the scenes

If we win tonight and next week against the saints then we are back where we were after round 5 last year , but still would then require a run of wins . lose tonight and then it’s a bridge too far I’m afraid , start preparing for 2020 If we need 14 wins to comfortably make the eight , then from here we can only afford to drop 5 more games (after round 3) for the rest of the season , when you look at it that way , it’s a pretty daunting task and we’d need to truly be a top 4 form like team from rounds 4-22 to maintain that sort of consistency. Also remembering we still have to play WC, pies and Richmond all twice !!! And then we would only scrape into the 8 so would need form and a lot of luck with the draw to do any damage in September I feel like I’m getting deja vu from the Daniher years

Let’s face it , Franklin is a poor man’s Shaun McKernan ... right ? I shudder to think what might happen if we are stuck with unleashing omac and frost against the likes of darling and Kennedy

Whilst we are playing well below par at the moment , if we somehow manage to scrap the next two wins against the swans and saints we are still in the same 2-3 position we were last year So all is not completely lost yet, but it’s hard to see how we can dig ourselves out right at the moment, particularly given the defensive structure issues and lever and may still weeks away from fixing that

Not slobbo , meant Russell Robertson, but I see your point though

Maybe instead of a flying eagle , we could get Robbo to paraglide off the southern stand?

Pyrotechnics and fireworks ... are we copying Carlton now Gill would love it

Sorry , but where is Melbourne actually blaming anyone else for being 0-2 ? Click bait article 101 ✔️

1.Richmond 2.adelaide 3. Melbourne 4. West Coast 5. Collingwood 6. Essendon 7. Brisbane 8. GWS 9. Geelong 10. North 11. Port 12. hawthorn 13. Fremantle 14. Sydney 15. Western bulldogs 16. Carlton 17. St.Kilda 18 . Gold Coast

Gill and marvel will be happy , increased sponsor exposure . Wouldn’t be surprised if the afl eventually have a superhero round ... whorethorn can bring back their power ranger top that Thor guersey is right up there with the west coast spew job circa 2000

Well ... you actually can if your club is owned by the afl ... heck you can even roundhouse that Muppet for good measure and it’ll only cost you $1500

If you ever needed a reminder for why you should hate hawthorn .... thankfully we still beat those [censored] that day !

Exhibit A

That’s a great point .... I often wonder if that’s one of our players in the same predicament in the next couple of years whether we would be afforded the same level of leniency.... with a grand final on the line barry hall in 2005 , Aaron Hamill 1999 and Cotchin in2017

Just like when it decided to clamp down on tanking, the AFL again decide to use Melbourne “to make an example of “ for removing indirect head high contact from a player holding his ground... easy target to send a message . I’m glad the club at least contested it and mummy still got off for an intentional hit to the head ... FMD

It was Mick Malthouse shooting from the grassy knoll at Casey , he doesn’t want us to pull out of vietnam (or the dees win the flag)... missing frame 217 will prove it all

Interesting how his head goes back , and then to the left .... back and to the left .... back and to the left are there missing frames that the CIA (sorry AFL) have taken out of the zapruder film which exaggerate the violent head movement we see in the footage ....

Looking at the quote from slobbo’s article it refers to “Subiaco“ ??? I thought it was played at Optus stadium do jounalists actually proof read anything they write nowadays or did he just limit it to wiping away the beer spill on his note pad when he drafted this gem at 3am one Sunday morning

I’ve put my tv on mute , noting west coast supporters booing and Dwayne Russell commentating

Carlton playing their grand final

As long as Robert Walls doesn’t tip us for the flag Malthouse ... ? I though it was about who you actually think (as opposed to who you want) to win the flag

You’re right there Rodney In my supporting memory there has been a lot of bath water consumed , so I never take anything for granted 1994 > 1995 prelim to missing finals 1998 > 1999 prelim to bottom 4 2000 > 2001 grand final to missing finals 2002 > 2003 semi final to bottom 4 2006 > 2007/17 semi final to 12 years of misery but I really do think this is a group that is mature and has a core now entering their prime and ready to take the next step , for once we just need a bit of bloody luck too and these boys might go out and make some history

Interesting to see after ending a 86 year bambino curse in 2004 the Red Sox have now won 4 World Series in under 15 years making them the most successful baseball team in the 21st century Whilst not a huge baseball fan I’ve always had a soft spot for Boston as a team because of some the many similarities to the dees , notably the colours and also given their history and how they were waiting so long to end their drought of success for their die hard fans we can only hope the mighty demons can follow and once the drought ends , the floodgates might then open again
