  1. Listed as 180 and I presume would have lost at least half an inch with the alopecia . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Lovell
  2. It's actually pronounced Skuit.
  3. Here's a collection of crystal-shaming from an entire decade ago from the willing folk still overtly present here on Demonland: Dappa Dan: Yze to win the brownlow. Little Goffy: Into the eight with about 13 wins, win a home MCG final against an overated Collingwood titan-uranus: Jones, McLean, Moloney to become the no. 1 midfield in the comp Praha: We'll make finals. Clint Bizket: Melbourne to finish 5th. Please note: Melbourne finished 16th in 2008. Adam Cooney won the Brownlow ahead of Simon Black. Paul Wheatley finished in approximately 65th place as the highest MFC player with 5 votes.
  4. Sorry, I forgot to include you. SWYL will choke on a bitter artichoke.
  5. The Demonland MFCSS crystal balls-up. Little Charlie Spargo will collapse into an on-field coma after being denied a well-needed rest before round three, to be later diagnosed with late onset narcolepsy. The AFL will reintroduce a condition-specific sub-rule to cater to Charlie’s condition, only for the other clubs to take advantage of the new clause by pumping warm milk into their under-performing players through an IV drip at half-time. While the Bombers prove to be well ahead of the game, scandal will rock the AFL when Jay Kennedy-Harris is discovered with a tell-tale milk-moustache after exiting the main-break huddle. Although Jayden Hunt will be banned for two years in the subsequent investigation after testing positive for Nippy’s, Clayton Oliver will escape sanction, with the judicial panel finding the submitted visual evidence of Clayton sporting a milk-moustache to be highly inconclusive. Oliver, however, will be one of the first humans on Earth to be officially recognised as a victim of global warming, succumbing to the 0.00000134-point rise on the ultra-violet index. His ashes will be left on the MCG in a moving but practical response to the tragedy. Pundits will say he should have altered his zink to banana-boat ratio. There will be calls for Alex Neal-Bullen to be dropped before Easter. The proletarian MFC selectors will finally succumb to the demands of the self-anointed Demonland High Council, but when they approach Alex to inform him of his demotion, ANB will just run away, and just keep running, from coast-to-coast, an unlikely protagonist in all the nation-forming events to occur in Australia for the next 30 or so years. Sadly, Alex’s fumbly hand-eye co-ordination will prevent him from ever rising up as a world-champion talent at terrestrial ping-pong. The MFC is like a box of snakes. As a senior leader of the club, and otherwise unavailable for the next 18 weeks due to an on-field incident which effectively ends Sam Frost’s career (of which the majority of Demonlanders will accept was a reasonable act under the circumstances), Jordan Lewis will be sent to chase after ANB, but will immediately and inexplicably fall over. As a senior citizen in general, the broken hip Lewis suffers in the fall will prove especially unfortunate, marking both the end of his own career and the beginning of a rapid terminal decline. Stay tuned for further MFCSS crystal-ball updates direct your psyche in the coming pre-season weeks. Go Dees!
  6. A skuit is a woman's suit worn with a skirt in place of pants. Pretty self-explanatory really.
  7. Snap. I've always maintained that Hunt was nowhere remotely near as poor a kick as what he is made out to be on here - based partly on - and I can't be bothered going back and retrieving old posts - my conviction that the footy department were encouraging him to break the lines by run and by foot. Some shockers, sure - but in my mind he had been asked to execute much higher degrees of kicking difficulty - with the full support and expectation of Goody. Wasn't dropped for his disposal, but lack of confidence and getting his hands on the ball. Build that back up and he'll be one of the first selected.
  8. As was mentioned by a few posters here during the season in defense of our often lamented supposed lack of defense: Points against: 2018: 1749 2017: 1934 2016: 1991 2015: 2024 A cursory glance at the ladder shows that at least nine teams conceded more points than us during the regular season. Maths says no.
  9. Viney tanked out the season for those debating his relative coaching merits. Check the interviews and footage.
  10. Except as mentioned before: when the Dees have met Collingwood since his departure, Dunn isn't a 0 with the senior players. Some strange bad blood going on there.
  11. Genuine question WJ ?
  12. Kicked the most goals last season - from a gazillion i50s - and probably have the weakest pack of ten goals of any team in the comp when it comes to sheer individual brilliance. This is exactly what Simon wants. Not in the highlights: the high number of exceptional running team goals last year and moments of line-breaking brilliance in delivery which led to regulation goals. Go Dees.
  13. Your metadata is probably being analysed as we speak.
  14. Sorry BBO. I get a bit mixed up sometimes.
  15. Neville Jetta will probably go down as my all-time favourite player.
  16. And even then I still hadn't heard of them. For some reason I thought we were sponsored by the electronics brand LG.
  17. Pre-season training not much to go by but it's helped to dampen my own initial mild confusion as to Preuss's motivations. Seems keen as mustard to push himself to be part of a successful mix and is being treated as an genuine element of such.
  18. Love that Lever was on his case about coming to the club. I suspect the same would have gone on with Max and Preuss. Says a lot to me that these guys want solid teammates around them and are welcoming challengers into the fold.
  19. To paraphrase just enough: There’s a backline that features Jake Lever, Mitchell (er, Michael) Hibberd and Neville Jetta, as well as former Gold Coast co-captain Steven May (plus Christian Salem). The engine room is led by the game’s premier ruckman in Max Gawn, who consistently dishes out hits to advantage to the likes of Clayton Oliver, Angus Brayshaw, Jack Viney (and James Harmes and Christian Petracca). That'll do me: I'm the envy of every other past Demons' supporting incarnation of myself.
  20. I'm so much more excited holding out unfounded hope for Braydon than I have been for that Dyson bloke the past couple years.
  21. Who the hell is Jake Lloyd?
  22. 100 divided by 18 is 5.55555555556 We're well ahead of the game.
  23. Loving the intensity of these November training threads. Every DL session is a step-up on the last. Long live Jeff.
  24. So Dr. D's assessment was accurate? Only three sessions in and Bradkte is already going backwards.
