Finally... a breadcrumb! 🥁

Brendan McCartney was 'relegated' to the bench in 2018, perhaps you're confusing the two?

On the one hand Ouch! But on the other hand; Ross Lyon has been jealous that a club like ours and its leaders went all the way and broke their premiership drought (Unlike him, Hayes and Riewoldt) - He tipped against us every week of the 2021 finals on Classified and never rated us throughout that time. And im sure is more than happy to now be sticking his boots into that same on-field leadership, now that we're back in the cellar.

Thank god we still have our F1, the future first rounder and the sport

Well at the time of said offers, I thought we needed the pick/s to package it for Harley Reid. Although it would've been denied, and that's probably why we did not do it at the time, we still could've added some good draft talent!

We should've traded that bag of noodles for the couple of $100 peking duck restaurant vouchers we were offered

Simon Goodwords

I refuse to believe they need to be told that, but it sounds correct haha.

.

There were two bench signs held up with a hand making a 5 and a 2, maybe has something to do with line formation and the gooses forgot it doesn't apply at the centre bounce? I wasn't at the ground so I dont know though.

We got our eye on some buffed up headless chook running around in the forward line of a WAFL club that we can take for Pick 22 instead of Pick 25? #Tank

Is Petty a proven forward at AFL Level? Applying that same principle to AFL level, the selection committee would look at the wider body of work than just the one or two great AFL games Petty has played. So maybe the 9 goals from 20 games last year, or the 12 from 14 this year?

Laurie has had more than enough chances, whereas Dunstan was never even given a game? Although it was understandable at the time, given the plethora of inside mids and we were contending. But with the season done n dusted and a need to bring in the next generation, how are we still kowtowing to the same senior players and not debuting more players? Get the feeling there are some big ego's in the club that are running the joint to the detriment of future development of the rest.

Is Culley being Dunstanned?

Yup. Hope Petracca was watching the final mark at the end with Darcy jumping into him with both knees. They're not your mates, you naive boy.

I'm a paid up spiritual donor for the Simon Goodwin Healing Journey, and I couldn't give a stuff about players, lists and game-plans. It's all about self improvement, connection and love! But no, seriously, I had a similar feeling early in the season. He was talking a lot about himself and the journey he's on as a person and coach to get better. I had a thought at the time: Am I on this persons personal journey or am I the fan of a football club?

The one part of the AFL that is lagging behind sporting codes around the world like the EPL or NBA, is that we hold onto coaches a year or two longer than we should. Owners and GM's over there are prepared to make the tough calls because they will not accept a protracted period of mediocrity. 2 years of failure after the highest of success and you're done. For some reason, AFL clubs need to see 3, 4 or even 5 seasons of poor performances before it's over. Holding on too long with the hope that it will turn around. I wonder who will be coaching us in 2027 eh.

Was 2021 the only season the umpiring wasn't corrupt or fixed?

Spoke too soon!

We should be beating a team with Jagga Smith on the sidelines

Only way we get back our 1st is if Petracca is traded

It was rumoured ages ago. Are there only a handful of demonlanders that heard it and have since been watching his poor efforts through the lens of him having one foot out the door?

And Essendons!

The episodes with Ryan from the Demon Army are the better ones. He's very measured, articulate and non-reactionary, while still being passionate.

Maybe he can be our forward coach after getting a degree in sports management
