Casey Demons v Geelong VFL Qualifying Final
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to KC from Casey's topic in Melbourne Demons
It's a pity Casey have the week off now. We lose some of the advantage for the Seniors of having the Twos in the Finals. Hawthorn are lucky Box Hill came third. Now they can give players striving for firsts selection a go next week. We can't. At least it'll help the firsts if they get through to the GF.....fingers crossed. -
Casey Demons v Geelong VFL Qualifying Final
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to KC from Casey's topic in Melbourne Demons
No-one answered The Great Pretender. Does anyone know if it's on TV? I think Coll play Sunday, so that increases our chances. -

I wonder if OMac came into consideration. -

I thought JKH was unlucky to be dropped. Or was he injured? -

Did you hear Brian Taylor say someone was a “piority [censored]” yesterday!? -
Was the win against West Coast rigged?
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to joeboy's topic in Melbourne Demons
I'm so accustomed to being outraged at the adjudication, that when we get a fair run, like last Sunday, I actually feel guilty. It happened on QB 2017, when we seemed to get a charmed run, and I felt guilty( but happy) after beating the Pies. The "snot-green maggots"* more than made up for it in round 23 2017. (*I liked this description from a previous poster! I've forgotten who it was.) -

Hopefully that brute OMac will concuss that thug Cameron early in the game next Sunday! -
POST MATCH DISCUSSION - Round 22
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
I can’t find any reference on DEMONLAND to the small contre-temps between Jetta and LeCras after the final siren. Does anyone know what that was about? -

Has any Melb based club ever won 6 games interstate before? -
POST MATCH DISCUSSION - Round 22
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
Has any Melbourne based club ever won 6 games interstate before? I presume interstate sides have, but I doubt if Melb clubs have. Admittedly 2 were “ home” games, but to win in Adelaide and Perth , plus the other four,is a great effort! We barrack for a good side. -
The crowd pressure on the umpires is immense.

Free kick stats kept secret

Tanks very much, Richmond.

Umpiring v West Coast in Perth
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to Rolling Stone's topic in Melbourne Demons
WA umpire Dean Margetts is very much influenced by the “ noise of affirmation” Let’s hope we don’t have him! -
Wanted: The Hail Mary Kick-in with 1 minute to go
Jumping Jack Clennett replied to TGR's topic in Melbourne Demons
Spot on,TGR. My mind went back to the Geelong game last minutes when Henderson sent it 60 m straight up the middle. I’ll never forget the last half minute of the ‘87 prelim. After our last behind, they torped it right up the centre, and ended up with Buckanara’s goal. But perhaps we should follow “Go the Biff’s” advice, when we’re a goal down with a minute to play. Don’t try and get it down the other end, just lament the way you’ve been playing all day! -
My 3 word player analysis V Swans

We must have lost by 20 goals!! They were all hopeless according to Joeboy! -
Coldest AFL Celebrity Couple Award Nominations

Darcy and Brodie -
I can’t hack those two thugs pontificating on the Gaff affair. Gaff’s gaffe was a one-off shocker from a previously fair player, and he was lucky to only get 8 weeks. Matthews repeatedly perpetrated cowardly ,behind the play atrocities ( Giles, Smith and McMullin for us, and every team can quote similar incidents against their players) Even worse is Judd, who on two occasions was found guilty of attacking the eyes of opponents.....the EYES! Obviously delicate, sensitive, and important structures, crucial to a normal life. Not satisfied with that, he “chicken-winged” an opponent with a known shoulder injury. He was also guilty of deliberately standing on his taggers abdomen, and twisting his stops into his guts. The guy is a vicious, heartless hypocrite, and should never comment on unfair play.

If we want to threaten for the flag next season, we MUST play one, hopefully two ,finals this year.

Perhaps there will only be seven in the eight!

His father, a top amateur footballer with Uni Blacks ,is(? Was) a dead keen Demon man....so I have a soft spot for him, though I hope he has a downer next week.
