  1. Just pragmatic acceptance... you can't get everyone for a whole range of valid reasons.. No point bitching and moaning on Demonland about the myriad of hypotheticals as to why it did not occur, and then to draw allusions from that, about what it means about the MFC post hoc. But what I am gleaning is, that until we land an acceptable player* - MFC is a rabble. *as deemed by the vocal supporter base.
  2. I'm always uncomfortable slagging off other teams, considering the doldrums we have been in for lengthy periods of time. It's probably useful to consider that Individuals within regimes come and go, and the entire edifice of Essendon, particularly post substance use has been reworked from the inside. Carry on though... 😎
  3. But not legitimate enough for some if you have a surname called Jackson...
  4. 100% - it's ok for the dead week between the news cycles of end of season and finals anticipation...
  5. Things change, that's called being flexible, both practically and psychologically.
  6. looking forward to dozens of these 'when' he plays us again...
  7. Values and priorities are his prerogative to change at any stage of his life, and with that, there are a range of consequences, both desirable and undesirable, that he will accept, and that's ok. Pursue things vigorously, and hold them lightly.
  8. definitely needed it's own thread...
  9. Feels like most supporters are ... anyway @The heart beats true
  10. On the subject of Kozzie - would love the stats of how many times he has kicked the first goal of the game and we have gone on to lose the match. Feels an inevitability from my perspective as it seems to occur every single time. He kicked the goal last night and I went 'Ugh....here we go..." Someone correct my confirmation bias please 😎
  11. I'll certainly be thinking of this match mid way through 2025 as a reason for where we are at...😎
  12. Looking forward to some atrocious football* from the 10th to 18th teams. *This may include limited one way running facilitating enhanced scoring.
  13. It's not just that Ted - it's the fact that it's 2024 and not 2004 or even 1984 where players were loyal to their club ie Chris Grant...effectively no matter what. But even the best player of all time (IMO) Garry Ablett Snr and his son changed clubs. Even Barassi, and even Jakovich Now I don't think a player has to be loyal to their club no matter what at all - > but player movement is now a very accepted practice within the industry and supporter bases have yet to catch up emotionally. And that makes sense as well.
  14. That's all well and good - but then if we lose, it's inferred that we lacked defensive structure and accountability.
  15. Checking in from Cairns Airport, fitting as there are a lot of vacant stares, sobbing and crying and a general malaise, waiting for something to end the boredom. Hi @Skuit 👋
  16. Because that's what Demonlanders do! We never should have traded for Grundy for reasons X, Y Z but now that we had him, we never should have traded out Grundy for reasons X, Y Z people are [censored] [censored] on this site.
  17. Breaking News Employee who doesn't agree with management decisions and tired of tolerating certain work place behaviours of some colleagues, canvases employment opportunities elsewhere. Seems like a pretty mundane and appropriate thing to do if you ask me...
  18. just wait until the off season then 🤷‍♀️
  19. I'm not crying, you're crying. https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/1628214/a-bittersweet-decision-neal-bullens-reflections?fbclid=IwY2xjawEpOMxleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHfTn8gO0maYYZcAb3522wYxvdAj0Y9mrNO9PVB5jYGgMPggDeF0KlmM_5A_aem_wv68pzRg6w582F-U6NvjeA
  20. I’m in strong dialogue with Trac and I’m in preliminary discussions… oh dear - corporate speak. Angus brayshaw was the cultural glue, let’s not underestimate that.
  21. This thread is like having a euology before you die. Brilliant. Good to see the love from most of the posters.
  22. I might crack the 10,000 in 2024- if someone has the urge to click an opinion button, on this or the above thread 😁
  23. Annus Horribilis. Thinking of 2025, it reminds me of this beauty from 1988* it's so good I chose to hide it behind this link.
  24. Are they much like the one's who have a niggle about winning in Perth?
