Are we are slight chance of stealing top spot now?

Pretty poor coaching by McCrae today

The original was the best, especially the opening scene with the Pointer Sisters and the truck (no CGI in those days):

I thought he was just their development coach?

Our greatest #39 pulling on his boots for the filth:

Great player Suma but he has been eating too many of his hallucinogenic peppers from his veggie business: Peter Sumich: West Coast Eagles could target Melbourne Demons Jacob van Rooyen and Brodie Grundy

What a joke we didn't get fixtured against the Bullants this year

When was the last time a VFL side didn't score a goal?

I guess this thread can now be put, well and truly, into hibernation. After the events of today, we haven't got a hope in hell in securing any funding whatsoever from the current state government for a home base

Hope he is not dropped this week like last week's nomination (Seamus Mitchell)

And Simon Madden only had 5000+ hit outs and kicked 575 goals for Essendon

You've got to admire his determination: https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/a-responsibility-to-get-better-demons-coach-explains-shock-grundy-axing-20230714-p5dof7.html I have yet to see him play a bad game for us

Already happened: Brodie Grundy VFL updates: Dropped Melbourne ruckman struggles for Casey Demons in practice match

Jeremy McGovern always said he would have been happy as a “fat tradie” playing for Albany

Nothing to read. No substance as usual

Thanks to the AFL’s unbalanced fixture, there are five different pairs of clubs that are yet to meet a single time during that span. The Western Bulldogs haven’t played West Coast or Essendon at any point in that time period, while there have also been no match-ups for Carlton against Port Adelaide, Collingwood against Hawthorn, and Gold Coast against GWS." Just shows how ridiculous the fixture for the number 1 sport in Australia is. Major sports around the world must laugh at AFL fixturing, if they even care what happens down here at the ars* end of the world. Why can't we have less games where teams play each other once (rotate the home match every second year) and supplement it with a state of origin tournament? Surely a fixture like that is less comprised and "unbalanced".

He should be dropped

So why can't they train at Victoria Park and leave us on Gosch's?

That's funny because I saw Collingwood training on Gosch's Paddock this morning. Maybe they got kicked off their AIA Centre (the old Olympic Park) for the World Cup and in turn, kicked us off Gosch's Paddock?

Adrian Burns for Essendon was filth. Elbowed Jimmy in the head that day. Then broke the collarbone of our GM Alan Richardson in the 1990 semi (in a sling tackle) which caused him to miss the premiership win for Collingwood that year

Yeah a few fights that day on the hill with the ferals. Scary place for kids
