I hope every one on DL has a safe and happy Christmas and demon-successful 2025. Many thanks for this past years entertainment on DL. And a special thanks to Andy and co for housing this site and making our communication possible.Keep up the great work in ‘25 please.

I’m sure the Master Planners know what they are doing, so I’m not really sure why you are worrying about this. I’m more concerned about winning the toss on Boxing Day. Have a merry Christmas Harv.

Well DP, maybe we could hang onto the lease we have on Goschs and in turn sub lease it to the Pies for a kings ransom until we at least get the money back that has been spent on Gischs. 😀

A sweet ride?

great to see Gus there.

Are you OK Roost? You seem a bit grumpy this morning. Unlike you to have posted a couple of negative posts in a row so a little concerned. Big xmas party last night?

does a really defined 6 pack make you a really good footballer SWYL? If so, pick me now.

No matter your intention, your post comes across as very disrespectful - essentially calling GW a liar or at best, a fantasizer - when you could have so easily said something like " maybe you have misinterpreted what Goody said - perhaps he meant available round 1 not necessarily playing in the seniors round 1". You have a right to express your opinion, but you should also have a duty to be respectful when doing so - we're all on the same side.

idea! What price is Red's horse on Saturday?

Off topic question. Is Kossy still eligible to win the Brownlow this year? (Ie rubbed out last year but suspension carried over to this coming season).My initial thought is yes, but not sure.

Swingman and relief ruck?

FCS it’s not hard. 6ft 7in equates to 200.66cm. So if Kalani was measured today at 200cm, as @Ghostwritersaid, then he is slightly less than 6ft 7in. Simple.

She’s not after you @Lucifers Hero, she’s come back from the dead to haunt DL. im going to change my name to @Ghostbuster.

Is Tayla Harris likely to leave the Dees? I hope not!

We’ve had OMAC, we’ve still got TMAC and now we have SMAC. Quite the unfortunate nickname.

There are probably many explanations for his “perceived” behaviour. One is that people are seeing things that just aren’t there. A second is that it’s the other players that are acting cool towards Trac - perhaps they haven’t forgiven him completely yet.

I think it’s very safe to say that WCW/GW is a pretty unique individual, who has done nothing but provide virtually all of us with nothing but entertainment and joy. DL is such a better place when she’s posting. Why she continually gets “attacked” by certain posters is beyond me, and it is simply disgraceful. There is just no call for it, and why these snide attacks are seemingly let go through to the keeper is also beyond me. She was going to return to DL, but has now - thanks to certain cretins - decided to give it a complete miss. So, as she says, there will be no more GW training reports. I’d say 99.5% of posters will sorely miss her and her reports.

Why would you say that? I think it’s safe to say that you have no idea if it happened or not. But a pretty demeaning post - no wonder she feels better off not being part of DL anymore. The poster also stated that there was another regular DLander present for this event. So a witness to corroborate.

I think he appeared, when interviewed, to be disappointed that he didn’t get to Richmond.

I’m old Saty, but even I get how important social media should be for our Club. It’s obvious from your post that you don’t, and perhaps it’s you that needs to do some research to broaden your outlook.

Haha, where’s the facepalm emoji when you really need it?

I’m not worried in the least as to who we get in this draft. The 2 players we do select will almost certainly be better than 2 players we have lost since the end of the season. So no matter who, we will be a better side. All we really need to know is that JT and team will pick the best two available for us. I’m sure there will be disappointments from some about whoever we choose, but there will be only 2 reasons for that. The first is that anotherClub chose your preferred player before us; or secondly, JT and team know better than all of us.

I think he may have Schache written all over him. We would do well to remember Schache’s U18 qualities, and how he turned out.

Please tell ghostwriter that her reports are greatly appreciated by virtually everyone still on DL. Hope she is doing well.

Is Maysie the most capped AFL player currently playing for Melbourne?
