  1. Just on 200 responses now. I wonder if that sample size is large enough to be meaningful. It does confirm my suspicion that we don't have a lot of young (under 30) posters here.
  2. Another fine article about Nathan Jones giving the Norm Smith oration. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/jones-finds-peace-after-grand-final-devastation-20220606-p5argo.html
  3. I'm reliably informed that there will be a big slide.
  4. I think you may be mixing up Longmuir and Longmire.
  5. How many weeks could a Hipwood hip if a Hipwood could hip wood?
  6. So it's just poor old Melbourne that's being picked on, is it? Boo hoo. The AFL doesn't like us or want us to succeed. Like most conspiracy theories, yours is illogical and risible.
  7. Why not? Just this century alone, Brisbane, Geelong, Hawthorn and Richmond have had "dynasties". The suggestion that the umpires are deliberately influencing matches by favouring our opponents and are doing so at the direction of the corrupt AFL is just self-pitying, pathetic nonsense.
  8. Joeboy - rough on Brayshaw
  9. If only our forwards could mark the ball as well as Sydney's defenders.
  10. Injured, having surgery and will miss the rest of the season I believe, Nasher.
  11. Click on "create" at the top of the page and follow the prompts from the drop-down menu.
  12. It feels like it's about 30 degrees outside. Fahrenheit, that is.
  13. Acob van Rooyen hardly touched it today.
  14. Just wondering, Steve. I assumed we didn't have a lot of young posters as most of us appear to be grizzled, rusted-on longtime Demon tragics. The poll numbers to date would support that assumption with fewer than 10% being under 30.
  15. Here's hoping tonight isn't a "Horror Movie" for Demon fans.
  16. I just watched the last ten minutes of that quarter and the ball didn't go into our half. It doesn't help when every kick out of defence seemed to find a Swans player. They were all over us and should be in front.
  17. Had a prostate check recently?
  18. Nobody has volunteered for the "81 and older" category so far. I can only assume that old dee hasn't logged on yet.
  19. There's nothing in the bank but I might be able to conjure up something if I make an effort. No promises. EDIT: I've just drafted a couple of new ones. Stand by for the bye! 😉
  20. Might as well because nobody will be able to tell which vote is yours. I set it up that way deliberately so no need to be coy.
  21. I am curious as to the age makeup of Demonlanders. I suspect that, like our supporter base, it will skew towards the middle/top end. Voters names will not be made public, so don't be shy!
  22. Luke Beveridge claims he "didn't see the incident". Why do coaches of the (allegedly) offending player never see such things, I wonder?
  23. Is Rosman injured or unwell? Haven't heard any such news on him this week. Bedford named as an "In" but doesn't appear in the team, which suggests that he may again be our Injury Sub in the main game.
