  1. Not a joke as such, but a very clever back page headline from the HS (circa late 1950s iirc). It came after a very meritorious Melbourne victory over the Magpies: ” Today’s Magpies, Tomorrow’s Feather Dusters” I loved it way back then, and I still do!
  2. Nice win, running into form at the pointy end. Very even performance, but Paxy and Heath outstanding.
  3. Fantastic season from you guys, and the wrap was in keeping with your outstanding work throughout 2022. Thank you!
  4. Love your work guys ……… huge thanks! The range of questions / issues suggested in the op is spot-on for mine.
  5. If culture is important at Melbourne, we shouldn’t give him a nano seconds thought!
  6. Hunty's pace and 'dash and dare' would be great assets off the wing, but I doubt that he has the tank to play the modern (up and back) wing role. Perhaps this is why he's rarely, if ever, been tried there in recent years.
  7. Thanks again guys. Looking forward to the ‘Season Review’ pod in the next few weeks.
  8. Not a question, but I want to acknowledge the huge amount of work that Andy, George and Bin have put into running the pod each week over the season. Whether or not I agree with the points of view, I value the different perspectives, and love the ‘Demon banter’ that goes with them. Thanks from me guys, and I expect I also speak for the vast majority of Demonlanders!
  9. Well done Clas. You have carried the team on your broad shoulders in 2022. More awards to come, no doubt.
  10. Very strange game with a good result. Next weekend should tell us a story. Strong four quarters needed!
  11. Casey Dees did a lot that the Melbourne Dees couldn't do last night. Ball movement and F50 entries so much cleaner. Some nice young prospects as well (esp. JVR, AMW). Nothing will ease the deep pain of last night, but that was the equivalent of a Panadol.
  12. 6. Petty 5. Langdon 4. Harmes 3. Petracca 2. Oliver 1. Neal-Bullen
  13. Bitterly, bitterly disappointed. Gutted! Heartbroken!
  14. This morning’s news makes me flat and (almost) disinterested. It just doesn’t feel like Gameday. I need a spark. I hope the Dees can ignite it with a thumping win!
  15. Some Demonlanders have a ‘blind spot’. They need to visit their ophthalmologist, and they’ll be fine.
  16. No Dunstan and Tommo suggests Tracc and Rick will play.
  17. Either that, or he wouldn’t have lasted nearly as long as he did.
  18. How much of the $4.5 Billion is shared between the Clubs?
  19. Another enjoyable and informative pod. The prep and effort you guys go to week in, week out is amazing. Thank you!
  20. It was certainly a lacklustre performance by some of our boys. I wouldn’t be surprised if Goody’s gastro impacted quite a few in our team, but we will never know if that was the case. We don’t make excuses!
  21. I’m sure that Tracc is in great hands with our medical team. He will not play if there is risk of further damage, or his performance will be significantly hindered if he takes the field.
  22. I do hate the handbaggers, just not as much as the Filth ………. but l loved your comeback!
