  1. According to the impeccable Demonwiki, Tingay went 52 -> 15 ->2 and Charles 44 -> 18 -> 1. That is also how I recall the sequence. Your source may be incorrect (?).
  2. Don't forget Peter Moore, @Timothy Reddan-A'Blew. He wore #10 in his first season with us before moving to #30.
  3. How about we conduct a poll on our favourite website, Deeland?
  4. The new entity was to be called The Melbourne Hawks. Go Aitches!
  5. We are Melbourne. Our nickname is The Demons.
  6. Suggestion for DA chant, to the tune of The Mickey Mouse Club theme ... "B. R. O. D. I. E. is the one for me!"
  7. I had to look that up. It wasn't what I was thinking at all.
  8. Yeah, why can't he be best on ground like every other Melbourne player?
  9. Poster thinks team named on paper will line up exactly as listed. What the Heck???
  10. Is the bugler available for a comeback?
  11. As if we needed another reason to love and respect Big Benny, he's refusing to have his image used in betting ads. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/high-profile-players-refuse-to-play-ball-on-afl-betting-ads-20230228-p5cobo.html
  12. What's in front of you?
  13. I didn't think we had a vacancy on the list after selecting Kye Turner in the SSP.
  14. This recent incident on the rub down bench convinced him it was time to call it quits.
  15. The five stages of Demonland grief as applied to Luke Jackson: 1. Denial: Dogga isn't going anywhere. He'll re-sign and be a Demon for life. He's a premiership star. 2. Anger: How dare Luke go back to W.A.? He clearly knew this was going to happen all season. He's so disloyal and ungrateful to MFC and as for his mother ... 3. Bargaining: Well, at least we'll get some great draft picks in return and he did help us win the flag (although he didn't really do that much in the third quarter) 4. Depression: Can't believe we didn't get much in return for him. Don't think he was really trying in 2022, either. Was he actually injured or had he already checked out mentally? 5. Acceptance: Jackson wasn't that good anyway. He'll just be ordinary at Freo. Good riddance. Luke who?
  16. Buns are $2 for Geelong members and $3 for anybody else.
  17. If you take off the spectacles of bitterness, it is not unusual that a player who was hampered with injury for a large part of 2022 has been able to return to full fitness over the offseason and perform well in the first practice match of 2023. Some people just can't get used to the idea that a Melbourne player would wish to leave us, despite the fact that players leave every club every year. We just picked up three new faces in this very manner.
  18. That would be guaranteed to distract the goal keeper.
  19. Humour works best when you don't faucet.
  20. He's probably sulking because people still can't spell "Sestan" properly.
  21. Article published today about Brodie Grundy leaving Collingwood. There were several clubs interested in his services. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/uncomfortable-reality-how-grundy-knew-his-time-was-up-at-collingwood-20230222-p5cmij.html
  22. I hope they're on the money with prediction #41.
