Langdon? Huge.

Judd McVee was huge.

Best win of the year for me. Our young players are guns. There is a future.

I kept my mouth shut. Proof was in the pudding. And by [censored], was that a tasty pudding.

Let’s do this Demons. Pressure has been immense tonight. Keep it up.

Where was Bowey’s pressure then??

Come on man. Footy’s no fun with that attitude.

That “mark” that Kos got the 50m penalty for was from an 8m kick. Sorry I know that was ages ago but I’m still fuming.

It’s heartening to see Geelong finally have some success after their tragic downfall and gruelling three-week rebuild. But maybe that does tell you something. Do I dare keep hope alive?

Wondering if the selectors googled Tom Fullarton then quickly realised they’d made a huge mistake….

And right on cue, he’s just announced a five-year contract extension with Ch 7. 😒

This is all speculation, spoken with a questionable degree of certainty.

I can’t tell how serious this is, but stadium/airport food prices aka the captive audience tax, are one of the legitimate things people should be complaining about.

It’s actually a golden opportunity to completely revise the commentary and adopt the UK Premier League’s one-commentator approach. Or bugger it, just crowd noise!

You’d assume as much, given he’s one of two of our only ruck options.

Will be a sad day when free-to-air footy goes. Particularly for the many who can’t afford to watch via any other means. Murdoch’s dunderhead kid will eventually have the entire competition in his grip, jack the prices up (even more) and the sport will eventually become accessible to only those who can afford it.

Could place a mid who’s only job is to tickle the opposition ruck as he goes up for the tap.

Good to see Max getting stuck into the Clearasil Kid.

Beautiful day here. I can feel a smashing coming on, and I’m not normally one to say such things.

Great idea.

Haha! Look that’s a valid question, but no I’m a guitar/keys player who’s really letting my crew down today. Gallows humour incoming: I spent a good chunk of my week at my Mum’s new aged care place helping her settle in. I texted my (football-averse) wife on my way back from “the game” today asking “Is Alzheimers contagious?” She replied “No babe, you’ve just got Dee-mentia”

Put on my Demons scarf around midday and hopped on the train to Jolimont. Big thanks to the people on the carriage who told me the game is tomorrow. It’s been one of those weeks, folks.

As a side note, Crisp’s three goals in the first quarter tell you that automatically benching a player after they kick a goal is a deeply overrated coaching trope.

Like any sensible human, I can’t stand the Essendon fc, but I love the fact that the Pies players and supporters have to watch Travis Cloke hand out bottles of water to the Bombers’ players after they kick a goal.

Did you see Trac’s interview on AFL 360? He very much made a point about him and Moore’s friendship, and the level of concern Moore showed in the aftermath.
