Friend texted me and said Kate Roffey was just interviewed on the ABC. When asked about this her response was “I haven’t seen it so I can’t comment”. Can someone here confirm this? If true that is an appalling response. Further to this, I was at the game with two Roos supporters and was genuinely embarrassed when the replays were being shown on the screen. I love Maysie, but this was one of the more blatant stages I’ve seen in recent times, and some of the “whataboutisms” and excuses being hurled around on this thread are borderline delusional.

There are people in the side who are literally a decade younger than him.

To be fair, at eight wins and no losses, they WERE good at the time. And so were we. This season’s been a wild ride. And there’s still ten rounds to go.

Can definitely see this kid getting better and better, and he’s most welcome to do that with the Demons.

You yearn for those days? 2015? When we finished 13th on the ladder? Those days? Yearn? 😄

Yes, I’ll admit I don’t understand 95% of your posts.

The self-awareness levels are staggering in this one.

It’s also the mentality of a gambler.

And beating the previously-undefeated Cats. Which feels like it was in a different season.

You’ve significantly ramped-up your presence here since the team has been on a losing streak, and your contributions are some of the most antagonistic, childish and aggressive posts I’ve seen on Demonland in quite some time. There’s plenty of room here for disagreement without needing to resort to “troll” behaviour.

Oh great. Our resident charmer is back on the night shift.

I meant hell to pay for our club, not the pies.

Absolutely shattered for our star. The club is so damn lucky that the Pies didn’t choose to target his injury when he came back on, otherwise there would be absolute hell to pay.

So many people letting our medic/coaching staff off the hook here. It was beyond obvious that he was in serious trouble, and putting him back on the ground was some of the dumbest [censored] I’ve seen from our club in recent times. Add this to the never-ending list of questions to be asked of Goodwin & co.

If we don’t get what you’re trying to say….WRITE CLEARER POSTS.

There is value, in that it makes supporters feel like they’re not going insane. The delusional, cliche-ridden nonsense that Goodwin coughed up at the presser provided much less “value” than the truth-bombs Schwarz was dropping.

On the AFL Reddit page there are countless posts from opposition supporters who are appalled by the fact that Trac was put back on the field. I am in complete agreement. Has anyone ever seen Trac in that much agony as he was being walked off the ground? No. It was obvious that something was very, very wrong. But we all know the coach has had run-ins with medicos trying to do their job and protect the players. I followed the Essendon scandal very closely at the time, and I was shocked when we appointed Goodwin as our head coach. In my opinion, it was a total abandonment of core values. My opinion has not changed.

You need to go the grip store and buy several grips.

Exactly

A coach

I’m turning off and going for a walk. Sick of this club being led by spud who can’t string a sentence together.

That was a rubbish call.

We all support the same team, but that’s where a lot of our commonality ends. People who make comments like this are lacking cerebral power. Also that particular poster should be booted off the site entirely.

Just Google it. He’s not very bright.

Apparently he’s a good bloke who the players love or some such garbage. Ever since I read his text messages to Stephen Dank I’ve had him figured out. Takes a lot of other people considerable time to figure it out apparently.
