Of course they're going to lay the boots in when you're putrid but go back and watch any hint of an upset and they blow the front of their pants.

Commentators live for punting home the underdog. When we were rubbish opposition fans complained about the same thing in our games.

Call them the Devils and bring in Norwood so we can go full Collingwood sook twice at the same time.

I'm a soft touch so would rather another white elephant 20th team than anybody losing their club BUT if I was being ruthless I'd pick the most unfortunate Victorian club when the music stopped and merge them with Gold Coast. And if I was to be an absolute bastard about it I'd point out that Arden Street would work nicely for us as a city training venue if no longer required by North.

Players who went to other clubs and won a flag. I hope this is the first Demonland post ever to mention Horrie Drane. Player Clubs Years Vin Gardiner Carlton 1908, 1915 Horrie Drane South Melbourne 1909 Ted Wade South Melbourne 1909 Vernon Hazel Essendon 1911 Bill Daly South Melbourne 1918 Lou Riley Collingwood 1935-1936 Peter McLean Carlton 1968 Peter Keenan North Melbourne 1977 Stan Alves North Melbourne 1977 Greg Wells Carlton 1981 Michael Byrne Hawthorn 1983 Tony Elshaug Essendon 1985 Earl Spalding Carlton 1995 Clay Sampson Adelaide 1997 Martin Pike North Melbourne Brisbane Lions 1999 2001-2003 Matthew Bishop Port Adelaide 2004 Darren Jolly Sydney Collingwood 2005 2010 Steven Armstrong West Coast 2006 James Frawley Hawthorn 2015

Definitely Nathan Bassett. I don't even think Hart was drafted, he was just added to Adelaide's list in their early days.

It looks like the AFL House Twitterist is having a medical emergency.

And the players got applauded off at half time because they weren't getting thrashed by as much as expected. That changed about 90 seconds into the third quarter.

What is this person on about given that we only kicked seven in the last quarter. Must have started drinking heavily midway through.

Nothing says Oakleigh vs Brisbane like... Craigieburn.

There was one game last year - either GWS or Freo - where they opened it by mistake and went around kicking people out at quarter time.

They're not doing this nonsense again are they? People's ground my [censored].

Another great result for 'Sestan 24 goal' bingo players.

We can't be far from Eddie launching another 'radical plan'. He'll actually get one adopted eventually.

Just cede stadium land to the City of Geelong and the Victorian Government will pay for it.

You may as well try bravado when your team is going down the drain for the next five years. If they'd had forums on the late 1960s you can only imagine what our fans would have been going on about.

Against all odds I've found something official - who knows why it's on this website and not the Demon Shop. https://www.htfm.com.au/products/melbourne-2022-aflw-premiers-official-print-frame-5370?_pos=1&_sid=81109be2d&_ss=r

Still waiting for his hub return

I take it there's more premiership merch on the way? I know they're not going to sell a million, but some sort of picture of the premiership team should be a minimum. At the moment they've got a replica jumper for $140 and the ugliest t-shirt since the early 90s.

As I said in the post above the culture of the sport has glorified [censored] mob behaviour like no other. This is a stain on the game but it's not representative of the entire sport and the literally thousands of games that take place every week around the world with no crowd trouble inside or (more often) outside the ground. Your theory that they get a bit bored and decide to brawl/rip a flare that would have stayed in the pocket if they were watching (what you perceive to be) a more exciting game is so ludicrous it's painful to argue.

Because the dregs of society get together in a group, feed off each other's macho [censored] and are more often than not either [censored] off their face or coked to the eyeballs. I'm not denying that the culture of the game glorifies this stupidity in ways that other sports haven't (although there are many examples of mobs making violent idiots of themselves in other sports), but given that the majority of trouble worldwide happens either before or after games it's hardly consistent with people getting antsy and walloping somebody with a bucket because there hasn't been a goal for 20 minutes.

Need a premiership bumper sticker to balance the 2021 one on the other side of the car.

The idea that people punch on at soccer games because there's not enough scoring could be the dumbest sporting theory ever floated.

She is an absolute legend, but if you're being ruthless her cliff is rapidly approaching. Regardless, if she goes it's obviously for personal reasons so would be hard to begrudge her after years of quality service.

Letting people buy 10 tickets at a time for a severely limited capacity venue would be the biggest extraction of pi$$ ever. I did it about a minute in and got GA ticket #18 so either there was a fair rush on in the next few minutes or they're going to discover a few tickets after getting the positive publicity for selling out quickly.
