Must be almost time to turn the TV on. Is all the pre-game bullshirt finished yet?

Screw JJ. He dumped us, don't forget. Yes, I'm being very mature and taking the jilted lover approach to this game.

Errr ... minor question without notice. These reports and match previews always seem to be posted on the main Melbourne Demons board, necessitating their transfer to the AFLW board. Wouldn't it be easier to just post them on the correct board to start with?

You reckon you had it tough? I was raised by my father as Mum left home before I was even born.

Our entrant in the Grand Final sprint is ... Oliver Sestan. I imagine you'd get reasonable odds on him winning. Gamble responsibly.

PETA has a history of organising stunts like this to get publicity. They always make outrageous, unrealistic claims/demands that inevitably evoke a knee-jerk reaction from the gullible and perpetually offended. Don't take it seriously, just have a chuckle then ignore it and the whole thing will disappear very quickly.

I think it's less to do with "woke" (whatever that really means) and more about attracting attention and publicity - and it seems like they've already succeeded with that objective.

You shouldn't sign the contract unless they include the tomato sauce, @hardtack.

The Brownlow Medal, for all its faults, still retains much of its cachet. I could name many, many Brownlow winners but very few winners of media and other awards over the years.

According to some, it's the AFL, the umpires, the media, other clubs and footy fans in general. It all comes under the umbrella of MFCSS, for which there is apparently no cure.

I'd have him just to hear the MFC fans yell "Praise the Lord" whenever he does something good.

I'm bucket if I know.

Oh dear.

Jamaine's now been delisted by two clubs. There's probably a good reason for that. Pass.

The Brownlow has become a bloated borefest and is best avoided, but I'm looking forward to the GF and hope it doesn't turn out to be a one-sided affair.

Nailed it!

There is also no doubt that some will get hammered tonight.

You can stop flogging. The horse is well and truly dead.

Check with @old dee. Pretty sure he was one of the 4800 spectators.

Did you forget last year? I can understand why if that's the case.

The question is not "why" 5.15, but "Who".

He's not a list clogger. He's a medical room clogger. Can't see the attraction of a perpetually injured player taking up a spot on our list.

* whose How long before somebody suggests we pick him up as a cheap back-up for Max?

Derksen would fit right in at Demonland. People are already stuffing his name up.
