Demon Tattoo
The most important question here is what tattoo will Tim Taranto get if we win the premiership.

If we beat Brisbane, I will ...
Start thinking about which state to quarantine in.

Game plans, tactics and all that jazz
I've read we play Langdon on the same side every quarter. The opposite side to the bench because he never comes off so I don't think it is a side thing. My understanding is the defensive wing is more of a positional role where they block spots you don't want the opposition kicking to and run back to defend and give extra numbers in defence.

Welcome to Demonland: Taj Woewodin
Slightly off topic but I love the father son rule. Jeff White's tweet on the MFC website said he had a face chat with his son after the epic win and it was a special bonding moment. How old is he? I've heard he can play and heard he is breaking school high jump records. Back on topic I hope we get Taj. I'll back Jason Taylor he doesn't get much wrong.

The 2021 All-Australian Team
I think the way our forward line works is the forward who has the defender who we don't want getting involved leads to where the ball isn't going. We are playing selfless football. Some of Frittas "quiet" games are because he is doing the team thing and taking the best defender away from the footy.

What will you do if we win the flag this year?
Invest in crypto currency and put it all in coin jar then take out life insurance with Zurich to protect my assets. I'll also hire Hertz to go on my next holiday. I'm supporting anyone who stood by us.

POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Geelong
Did anyone else notice, Oliver, who busted his gut and almost single handidly dragged us over the line raised up and jumped the highest into our outburst of celebrations. Right over everyone. I don't think the league knows what it has coming this finals.

Is it too late for Bowe to get hbf? He's never lost a game

POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Geelong
After Goodwin wins 3 premierships he will have the smarts to start succession planning after seeing what Roos did and the contrast to what's happened with Clarko. Daisy's old man was a legendary coach.

POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Geelong
There is nothing more than I love seeing than Petracca bring tagged. He just sits back at centre bounces and lets the best opposition deensive player stand back with him, Oliver can beat the rest of them by himself.

POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Geelong
I think we have been happy to concede shallow clearances all year as long as they are rushed clearances. May and Lever generally mark it and repel. Selwood and Dangerfield had a 15 minute burst and we were destroyed. They both got centre clearances where they got deeper F50!entries. It helps on shorter grounds. We won't fall for that again.

POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Geelong
My young daughter who has number 6 on her jumper can't understand why people ask if it was for Jordan Lewis. She responds back in disgust it's for daisy. I don't think people understand yet what an impact she has had and is having on this club When the inaugural women's draft happened she said she wouldn't play unless it was for Melbourne. It reminded me of the famous clip of Norm Smith saying he is Melbourne and won't go anywhere else.

I assume you are talking about Daisy Pierce and not DaisyThomas? She is a gun and breath of fresh air in the over crowded commentary circles. Someone worth listening to.

Ways to get to Adelaide
Who knows. I'm not trying to turn this political either. Just joking about trying to ride a horse across the border like that bloke

Ways to get to Adelaide
You should just ride a horse like this bloke did today in a NSW protest

How I feel about other supporters who want to jump on our journey
I can understand the sentiment. I went week in and week out when we got thumped every week. When you are down and out out and get txts from people hanging [censored] on you. They won't be coming to my party. There are lots of mates that sympathized with me over that period. They are welcome on the bandwagon and are jumping on.

@Supermercado I cannot wait to read your Demonblog post when it comes out. You could be up for a record number of views this week.

Sacred terminology
I don't like being called the Melbourne Demons. We are Melbourne, the dees or the demons. Combining the city / suburb and team name is an NRL thing that a largely Sydney base media fail to recognise is not traditionally what happens in VFL / AFL. Sydney Roosters, Melbourne Storm are what they are reffered to in NRL but it has crept into AFL reporting and I can't stand it.

Who wins over the next month?
I'm betting on the side that has had a season with a player who took the most intercept marks ever during the season and another player who had the most contested possessions ever in a season. Two pretty vital stats in the modern game. Go Dees!

2021 ABC Footballer of the Year - Clayton Oliver
If Clarry wins the norm smith this year I beg to differ. I loved Robbie as does every other Melbourne supporter ever. This is not a knock on him.
-
Top of the table
It was like watching Brad Green and Cameron Bruce snatch that final off Carlton from know here. Clayton Oliver is the best player in the game and big Maxy is the best captain.
