Not a good look. I imagine he would have been out anyway but an injury like this can be aggravated. Not happy about it but it's done now.

Snicko Tech for Goals
Like the idea but think some extensive testing is needed. Could be useful in conjunction with the video review down the track if proven somewhat reliable.

Big Improvers/Standout New Players
I also have the feeling if Stretch can stay healthy his speed will be beneficial, especially when we're in transition. Someone like Salem who was an improve last year could even go up another cog? I think the elephant in the room is how Weid will go. If I could choose one for this season it would be him.

Was the right way to go. Back him in

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JAY LOCKHART
I'm ok with it. A ruck would have been nice but best to play it safe with the last rookie spot.

As a neutral it will be hard not to want to see this if you get past City GV.

100 Up for Max
Not your average 100 but these are the 100s you love hearing about.

Yeah 100% That will be the secret sauce. Either way they are gonna be a fun watch.

Baker has one of the more accurate deep balls going around so this move makes the right sounds. Surely on the up now?

Most Heartbreaking Loss?
Geelong in Geelong last year is the freshest in the memory and was extremely hard to cop. 2015 against the saints. There was nothing on the line but it burned like hell, didnât help that it was my birthday either. I even remember saying to someone that Howeâs goal with 30 odd seconds left gave us a âfighting chanceâ. They thought I was nuts and that I should be celebrating a premature win. When Joey kicked the winner I turned around and said âThatâs why I say these thingsâ. Farmer after the siren in 2002 was torture. Special non-mention: Richmond in 2009 in the infamous tank game. I was not heartbroken, I wanted this loss and donât pretend you didnât either. Off topic but this is the worst after the siren winning goal in the history of the game, Jordan McMahon 35 metres out looked like he was kicking a sack of door knobs.

Yeah another 3 years or something like that. It's a bit of a punt at 31, yes he's brilliant and could go a while yet but still a risk. Some new off field issues don't help. I'd welcome him of he came but still not convinced he's a perfect fit. Would rather a decent long threat and some serious pass rush this FA. The Raiders have serious cap room and are desperate for a big fish. Gruden is a fan so would make sense.

Yep, itâs official. Still no obvious reason why but he seems keen to move on. I feel like the Raiders might make a cannonball splash in this pool.

Browns sign Kareem Hunt. Never afraid of a circus that lot..

Goodwin signs on until end of 2022
It raises the eyebrows, not saying it is not a good idea but it is certainly unorthodox. I think stability and knowledge that we have the coach is a powerful message to send, not to mention this still is a developing list. Offer Goody a 3 year deal and back him in.

City wipe Chelsea off the park, Spurs looking good again and should have Kane back soon. Very exciting league and really no other way it's going than down to the wire.

Richmond membership banner ads on Demonland
I think when you consider the time and efforts that go into running a website like this one it makes sense to subscribe or donate. I've been on DL a long time and although I've had on-off periods on here it's always been there and I'm grateful for that. The site is run by great people and we are getting more and more brilliant content all the time with things like the podcast which has become a staple for me during the week. Every bit counts, doesn't take much.

Magnificent timing. I vaguely remember an interview with her on The Footy Show or a similar program, would be good to see that again if possible.

Getting tired of this same old re-hash. The guy has talent but never the mindset of an elite AFL footballer. Not once or twice this has been shown but over and over and a lot of people including myself chose to ignore it for a long time. Iâm constantly having opposition fans tell me rubbish like âI heard somewhere if Watts had gone to Hawthorn he would have been one of the AFLâs best playersâ and âIt wasnât Wattsâ fault, he went to a basket case of a clubâ turn it up. Some of it is true to an extent but doesnât hold any water when explaining the guyâs entire career.- NFL
Rough way to lose. Was really hoping they could make some big plays late and bring it home for you @Gorgoroth. Tough to take. - Jack Watts video
