A nothing article, but if true funny Dogs would be upset about us singing that they sung (which is already song in soccer and the darts etc)

Could have been worse....remember when Adelaide sang

'Oh when the Crows go marching in......"

Someone tall please

Wondering what Chandler would be worth....pick 30ish?

 

Pick 31 but as he is an uncontracted rookie I think he is free to leave.....

The mind boggles....

May he come back to the club one day and follow in the steps of Yze

I don't have any objection to Buckys name been spelt wrong.  Pukenara even better....

Fritta B grade like really? So whoever played on him was C grade.... (and we all  know who they are)

You sure the video isn't just to get me watching someone drawing 'filthy pictures'?

Dan McPherson was interviewed by Sam McClure and Gerard Healy last night on 3AW. When asked why he was shifting from Melbourne to NM he gave what I suspect was a half-true answer. The new job will broaden his experience. He explained that he's done a number of different jobs in footy admin since finishing as a player with Sydney, usually only staying 2-3 years in each role. He's got a business and/or commerce degree and has been mainly doing logistics and admin work. His new job gives him more exposure on the football side (ie, overseeing things like fitness and conditioning, a role in list management, etc). It all makes perfect sense for someone who likely wants to be a club CEO or Head of football operations one day.

Why do I suspect it was a half-true answer? I expect he's also getting more money. He didn't have to say so, but it's not unreasonable to assume that also motivated him to change. 

Was he the last one left of the  team Roos brought with him?

Perhaps there is also a sense of mission accomplished and getting more money is always a motivator.

Shiraz is my preferred drop, and Bleasdale is always very good.  This one will taste like Grange!

 

 

In FNQ a Shiraz is not necessairly a drink of choice after a long hot day.

Are there any commerative whites or sparklings that anyone knows of?

Can we spell his name right?

Paywall.

Anyone want to copy and paste the text?

ANB's. Because after that goal I knew we had won the game and I could enjoy the rest of the game.

 

Same here in that I knew it was won but fav goal is Fritta - land on your feet son.  Gets double points as it was on Easton Wood.

This the year that Garry Lyon in his book says the Dees should have won.

No clear stand out team, Melb had a good team and good record but had to travel to Perth which cruelled their chances.

the 1990 GF was so soft everyone in the finals reckons they should have won.

Further improve our depth over the trade and drafting period.

We'll never have a charmed injury run like 2021 as evidenced by the fact that Tomlinson and Hunt were our only best 22 players to miss substantial games. Whilst they were seamlessly replaced, we need to plan around the fact that we'll be having more best 22 players miss weeks next year.

Cerra would've been a great get to fatten up our midfield stocks.

Hopefully Laurie will be a great addition in the second half of next year like Bowey was this year.

I hope Melksham stays. We've had a bit of depth leave already - Jones, Jetta, VDB etc...

Viney missed 10 games; May played the last 2 games with a torn hammy, back up defender Smith was injured....perhaps a tall with potential (and not just hope) is what is needed.

With Vanders delisting himself and Viney only playing 14 games I assume he is the backup?

Maybe Bailey has some friends at the MFC or he has a desire to join the red and the blue.

Isnt he mates with Tracca?  (Or do I have the wrong Bailey...or Smith)

It’s funny, I just see him as a reasonably talented guy who came and did his thing for a while without really buying in and as we got more and more buy in from other players, probably with less raw talent, he became irrelevant. I don’t feel like we owe him anything. I don’t wish him ill, I just don’t feel like we need to get him to 200 games.

Agree but it would have been nice to get him there.  Sometimes that all there is to a football career.

(I remember Steven Icke finished up on 198 games.  A great football story and a B&F winner, and I know injury finished him off but couldnt we have nursed him through 2 more games?)

Thats 39 players still on the list with Melksham been told he is happy to look elsewhere.

My order says, “awaiting fulfilment.”

 

$36.00

1 × Melbourne Demons Premiers DVD

This product cannot be reordered because it's out of stock.

 

 

 

But then says this. Call me stupid but what did this mean? They can’t send it because it’s out of stock, so they won’t complete my order? There’s no way to send other stuff because one of it isn’t in stock? If they can’t get anymore, why do they still charge me for it?

All my items are still in stock and waiting fulfillment too.  Perhaps fulfillment means on its way as this cant happens til AP recovers from their melt down.

Jimmy Stynes for restoring the relationship with the MCC

The AFL for realising that the MFC was a basket case, bad for the competition, and thus giving support

Previous board members for realising they could be the problem and stepping away

Ensuring Jonesy got the the 300 club (I knew we were something special then)

Is his name down on the MCC waiting list yet?

Good point.  Is it still a 25 year wait?

I've never seen this much traffic on Demonland.  Did something happen?

I think so...the AFL world seems stunned.....
