Engorged Onion

It’s ok chook, I was extracting the urine.

What does any of the trade conjecture matter... it's not like it destabilises the players or the team, just the supporters who are particularly invested...

I like my revisionist history of that time, where historically it was spoken about how instinctive Jackson was, and what leadership it was by him, "he is such a unicorn". On further reflection, and inspection, it was clearly the Dogs midfield positioning (looking at you Bont and Treloar) which Melbourne as a team capitalised on, it could even have been Mark Jamar rucking (no disrespect) and the ball still would have been fed out to our marauding midfielders. The mythology of Jackson rests on him merely being at the right place at the right time, as Gawn needed a rest.* 🫣 *not that I am bitter...

Touché

I've only heard people use [censored]ming Dumpster in terms of degrading women... is that your angle on the nickname?

Perhaps we can start a thread, about how upset we get about the people that push trade rumours about people that we find important to our club?🤷‍♀️ I do forget that AFL long ago moved on from it's tribal nature (not the supporters), the corporate bohemoth that IS the AFL and how it views itself as merely entertainment and a product for the masses. And that includes the media snippets and articles and airtime, that we digest from the marketing machine that is the AFL, that perpetuates our anxities and causes us great distress. So much time wasted on Clayton, will he go, will he stay? Charlie Cameron 3 weeks?? WTF ,oh it's 0 Weeks still WTF?? Jack Crisp, will he break Jimmy Stynes consecutive games record? What a grub! Random random clickity baity bits n bobs...

Must have being high or [censored] as @binman The Collendina is in good ol' Ocean Grove. It was a classic stop for, Midnight Oil, The Hoodoo Guru's, Hunters etc etc...

aaannnnd??

Which Pod is this mate?

I thought dazzle was adamant and said he was definately called Silk?

I think that this is the first acknowledgement I have ever seen on Demonland in the maybe 8 years I have been on here, that someone has acknowledged you can perform well and still lose. It’s typically not that nuanced and rather binary. Bravo 🙌🏼

He’ll need to meet certain physiological criteria + biological markers and then his own internal sense of where he is at. If all are positive, it’s a straight forward answer. If one is negative, it’s a straight forward answer.

Bit like Darwin's 'Theory' of Evolution.

It's EXACTLY when I expected it... game was dead... provide entertainment value.

Oooof! I'm slightly pleased

Good one, champion 😅

Or fatigued 'cause every game is an 8 pointer' 😁

[censored] you and your pedantry @Demonstone, and adore you alliteration 💪🤩

Did love Fritsch's final goal, with the poise to finish on the angle playing on from around 25 out, whilst an opponent was in front of him. Most players would have stopped and taken the opportunity to kick over the man on the mark.

Some more great writing from Andrew Stafford https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/bombers-exposed-as-unworthy-of-the-top-two-spot-that-was-on-offer-20240713-p5jtfq.html

They expect their entitlement to be met, that’s what they expect.

Here’s hoping Freo are going through a heavy block at the moment… but these things change due to anxieties around how many loses are too many..

Best portmanteau yet. 😁

Is Goodwin the right guy?

Love a Nostradamus self reference 💪
