GC Suns of recent times (admittedly, most requested to be traded): Prestia, Dixon, O’Meara, Hall, Saad, Lynch, Lyons, Wright, May, Brodie, etc. And now Bowes and Rankine

Because Eddie always wanted Olympic Park and saw the perfect opportunity in 2005 to effectively steal it when he was appointed to the board of Athletics Australia thanks to his mate and former Pies player Rob Fildes. This article explains half the story behind the "acquisition" of Olympic Park: https://www.smh.com.au/national/collingwood-secretly-lobbied-for-park-20090811-egz0.html The real question is how did McGuire get on the board of Athletics Australia when he had no involvement whatsoever in Athletics up until then and what negotiations did he have with Brumby. It is just another classic example of ruthless opportunism by McGuire, one of the luckiest [censored] on the planet. It was also unfortunate that at the time (2007-2009) we were in our darkest period and had no hope of seizing the opportunity. That's what makes this current period in our history all the more important in finding a home.

He will say anything to bring us down. Has hated us from the day he was born.

Relax. Gawny and Jacko versus Fort and McStay. I think we'll be okay

That is truly awful

As selfish and as melodramatic as this sounds but I almost cried when Elliott kicked that goal at the 20 minute mark in the 3rd quarter yesterday. I honestly thought I am never going to see Melbourne win a premiership in person. Last year still doesn't feel real because it was on TV. For what it's worth, I predict we will make the 8 but we will go out in straight sets. Unfortunately this year the curse seems to be hanging over us again and we are not handling and absorbing the pressure in big games, unlike last year. Hope I am wrong

Lynch getting off...again. That's also a disgrace

Yes, some commentators in the media also comparing us now to Richmond 2018: https://www.sen.com.au/news/2022/04/11/be-very-afraid-unbeaten-demons-have-huge-scope-for-improvement/ Can we hope of matching our club record of 7 consecutive GFs instead?!

Can't believe no mention whatsoever of Burgess or Taylor or Mahoney. And a one second reference of Peter Jackson. Those guys were pivotal in our rebuild and getting us to where we are today, in my opinion

Hope so. But maybe his knee is stuffed

Ronald Dale Barassi and the 2021 AFL Premiership Cup

Damn, couldn't see the picture of the naked lady on his wall again -
Going to be interesting next year when we go to the footy, expecting them to win all the time! Strange times ahead

Heaven knows we have all wavered over the years here on Demonland but most media "experts" are particularly whimsical and inconsistent with their predictions. Take the guy who presented the cup for example: https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-2019-melbourne-great-garry-lyon-labels-demons-2018-season-an-aberration/news-story/11adfe12baf08bd32ec2849f34f483fd

Yes, just got the email. Go on sale tomorrow at 10am

Lucky Collingwood didn't win. Can't imagine their premiership knife range would look like this: https://shop.melbournefc.com.au/premiers/accessories/custom-chef

Yes, snake: "Melbourne marketing manager and furniture retailer Bill Guest acknowledged at the weekend that up to 60 of his staff had submitted proxy votes supporting the merger" https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/from-the-archives-1996-rival-factions-clash-over-demons-hawks-merger-20190913-p52r1o.html

Paint my truck red and blue and splash MFC advertising all over it. Personally though, I would cry for Robbie.
