    Shop was open yesterday about 4.55pm I phoned and Premiership Beanie is just at the warehouse for distribution holding up my order.

    No apparently he gave the job to the girlfriend, stole the pet and threatened Mach5 and cancelled his membership.
  3. Ditto 🏆❤️💙🍾
  4. Fully deserved and very exciting. Great season for Fritta who is really undervalued ( prob not anymore after the GF) He now can look to get an AA spot to join the growing list of Dees in this group. Very calm and reassuring player who now exudes confidence class and goals galore. The presence of BBB and T Mac and the ruck resting LJ or Maxy has made our forward line a strength. Bayley has profited through our team approach and his sublime skills. Plays like an old fashioned forward. Another 5 years at least is great news!

    Well it us up to you as the instigator of some alleged dirt or otherwise to reveal why you are now a very lone voice in the wilderness on your "Get and try and remove Perty" campaign. it must be very deep and personal if it occurs that you aren't or won't detail your reason for your attacks. it is plain for any Melb supporter to see the credits and success Gary has been in the role over 3 years and proven to many doubters he was the absolute right choice for the top job of CEO. Over to you Mach --05 as I said put up or .......!!
  6. We as fans at the moment are in danger of undervaluing the quality and influence that our champs have on the game each week. Trac and Clarry are special special talents and think and react about a half second quicker than others on the field. We also have about 7/8 others who are probably undervalued a little bit because of this. They include Maxy JackV Maysie Rick Salo and Fritta and Langers. All are in the top3 of their craft ie ruck forward or mid or half back or winger or actually the top. That's why they are AA players or will be in the future. Just as an example Langers did not effect the game as usual in the first 3 quarters but what about his last quarter full of run carry and superb Clarry like handballs. Watch him and that's why he is a special talent on the wing. Great recruiting as with all of our players. It's a pleasure watching them go about their footy and to see the team spirit and joy is so uplifting to all our fans many who have very patiently supported the Club through some dark periods. That light at the end of the tunnel is hit a lot to shine about for a few years yet!

    Your an embarrassment to yourself Mach 5 ( or should it be Mach --5 ) because that's how low you stoop. If Perty has something in the Closet you are either too embarrassed to mention OR it's just a despicable and underhand fake attack on our Club Administration leader who has plenty of credits in the Bank. No matter how you try to discredit Gary your not succeeding and the likelihood of a very personal and false attack is greater but more in vain and less likely after every success our CEO is ticking as the weeks and days go by. You probably are trying to water down the enormous effects that our Premiership is having as it brings more praise on the Club, our Officials and our players as each day goes by! Give it a rest ie put up with the facts or please SHUT UP.
  8. Put him on the ruck and let him go Jacko !!! Has the skills. BUT do we need 3 ruck/ forwards ?
  9. Is that a condition of having fake blond hair as you get older???
  10. Results do tell that Houli and Astbury may be missed but Balta returns and Tarrant may be a good replacement but over 30 remember!!!
  11. Can't remember perhaps Blues in 1995 or Dons in 2000 Cats in 2011 we're pretty good. But still not quite like us esp as our first finals for half the team!

    Here here I have posted similarly about a few days ago and let's enjoy the way the Cup is bringing us all together including players officials and not forgetting the fans. We have all played our part in this magnificent achievement and it's only starting IMO. Gary was a very worthy role player in Perth and it's time for say RDB and ND to complete the flag furling in March health permitting.
  13. ANB is in no danger His GF performance was magnificent over 20 possessions and was his career best game for our Club. Was on the ball for about a third of the game also.

    The issue is one of that the Club has had 4 years of care and development of this player ( Since Day 1 of our NGA) and he has politely and graciously referred to the Dees very important role in his last 4 years). To do what the AFL has Done is high handed and at least a compensation pick the next draft no. after he has been taken should be in place for the first 2/3 years if that player has been involved in a reasonable period of development. It's another AFL over reaction without looking at the total damage! First your argument is about Mac's ability citing a national weakness of Sudanese sports people as weak competitors. My point is made which you ignored completely about the Indians at cricket and their transformation in the last 10/15 years. The Sudanese will in the future do the same. Then you say we may not take him anyway if he was available. That's not the point. It's that the rule on the run partly because of Ugle Hagan last year that he change occurred. Ironically it didn't turn out costing any one a foot inthe 8!! Yes we can't rescue the rule NOW snd officially only Jason Taylor has commented publicly. He is in the best position I believe to assess the impact in this case of the change in the Rule. BTW I don't think it applies to any of the NSW or Qld Academy NGA boys! Just because we are top of the heap ATM this does not prevent us standing up for what we believe is better for the game. We will move on as no other option is real and I hope that Taj Woewodin is the best No 40odd NGA player ever!!

  16. 58er replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Yes
  17. Good Luck AVB and thanks for your efforts at our Club we greatly appreciate your heart and soul footy despite all your injuries.
  18. Here here this is wrong I think 4 picks and we may use only 3 !
  19. Yes it looked sad really Doesn't the Red and Blue just look amazing with the Cup. Bought the small replica Cup and put red/ blue ribbons on it Re going to Museum on the Sat at noon for photo op and tour as will be so crowded on the Sunday for photo op I reckon.

    THanks a lot DrG.
  21. 58er replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Best to ring Museum and ask.
  22. 58er replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Ring club but sounds like an "Open Day" and op for photo with Cup
  23. 58er replied to titan_uranus's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Any way we can contact WEG for a newly done one now with 2021 on it?
  24. Mac is not as well developed as Dogga in his career. But huge potential for future when he puts on weight and muscle.
  25. 58er replied to Whispering_Jack's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Yes so much so that they will take the risk and further develop his tank etc. WJ think back a decade or so how unfit and physically weak the Indians played cricket. Look at them now !!! Your reasons for not fighting the rules changes and for Max are about as weak as the Gold Coast Suns football after Round 6 or 7? Each season. Some one will get it right and they will prosper. Just look at what he Mighty Dees did this year when they got everything right at last. Success will breed success and countries learn from Oz and our athleticism competitiveness and fitness. The Sudanese will do the same quickly I would think!!
