  1. They just released our first 6 rounds Riound 1 vs West Coast (Perth) Riund 2 vs Brisbane (GABBA) Round 3 vs Geelong (Geelong) Round 4 vs GWS (Darwin) Round 5 vs Port Adelaide (Wuhan Stadium) Round 6 vs Fremantle (Perth)
  2. Everyone here has stood by the team and continues to do so. You can do that while also admitting that they torture us.
  3. I like Michael Jacksons cover version better.
  4. It is. Only one in contention is 4th from the left... so far we have Harmes and Kozzie as the nominess. I will go with Angus Brayshaw.
  5. https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-2021-best-22-line-ups-round-1-teams-jamarra-uglehagan-lachlan-jones-braeden-campbell-will-phillips/news-story/44c824db366f4cbd0ddfcd360dd6d61a
  6. Would prefer Boweys creativity inside forward 50. Will be wasted in defense. Seems like a Goodwin decision to play him down back (see James Harmes). I like Petty as a forward but we are now loaded up there for talls... if he can make his mark as a CHB look out. Has some great attributes that compliment May and Lever.
  7. The jungle drums are beating that President Trump may be pardoning Julian Assange. Not that he should need a pardon since hes done nothing wrong. It is one of the great injustices that he is rotting in a jail cell.
  8. Just love how hes 'standing down' yet hanging around another two full seasons.
  9. His 1996 and 1997 seasons were write offs due to the back problems... a real shame as he was at the peak of his powers having kicked 77 and 79 goals in 94/95. His comeback in 1998 in Round 2 against North was one of my favorite Demon games ever. He kicked 40 goals that season and helped us into the prelim final. I still believe that Gary Lyon is hugely underrated by the footy world.
  10. Irrelevant. Trump already won and will do a 2nd term.
  11. To answer your question - almost all of them. Heres how many clubs have had century goalkickers - Adelaide Carlton Collingwood Essendon Fitzroy Footscray (Westen Bulldogs) Geelong Hawthorn North Melbourne Richmond South Melbourne St. Kilda Sydney West Coast Most of those clubs have had 100 goalkickers on multiple occasions, some have done it many times (Hawthorn 12 times for example, vs Melbournes zero times). Our record is abysmal and yes, being around for 120 years with such a lack of goalkicking talent (and talent in general) to come though is an indictment on the club and a stain on its history.
  12. Will be a couple m ore months at least until people start warming to footy properly again. This year has ruined a lot of things for people.
  13. I should have said if Trac continues on his current trajectory he will be the best. Nothing guaranteed.
  14. Darren Bennett kicked 87 goals in 1990. Thats the most by a Melbourne player since Fred Fanning in 1947 and the third highest ever in a season for a Melbourne player. Great season by Bennett, but an indictment on the 100+ year history of the club also.
  15. Robbie is the greatest Demon of the last 50 years... but not for long. Christian Petracca will take that mantle from him in a few years.
  16. You don't need weapons to be in a war. China are at war right now with the U.S and to a slightly lesser extent, Australia. I was going to call it a 'covert' war but it is so blatantly obvious it needs to be called for what it is.
