The AFL should consider cutting off the toes of some NEAFL players so we can test if this would be effective.

All we need is another article by David King telling us to stop worrying.

Where are you going to play nine games simultaneously? 1. MCG 2. Etihad 3. SCG 4. Sydney Showground 5. Gabba 6. Metricon 7. Adelaide Oval 8. Perth Stadium 9. Kardinia Park/Launceston/Hobart/Cairns/Wellington/Tonga Would take some fantastic rigging of the draw to come up with something workable there. Interstate teams (and likely Geelong) would have home games in the last round every year which wouldn't go down particularly well. Update - just re-read the bit about it only being the games with finals implications. Might save a couple of venues but will still be unworkable.

Probably shut it in the car door when he realised he was about to be typecast as a tagger.

People have probably been going off their rocker and punching on since 1860, it's just now we get action footage of it 10 seconds later.

If the Melbourne fans were the ones I was standing in front of in the first half (and the last time we played at KP) I'm not surprised that it kicked off because they were just as bad as the locals. Also, perhaps don't serve 4x beers per person per trip, half the terrace was maggotted by half time. The comments about security at Kardinia Park being ineffective is 100% correct, they had zero authority and were there purely for show. That might work when it's Geelong vs GWS, but add a decent number of travelling into the mix and you're guaranteed somebody will do something outrageous. P.S - Bonus points to the two Melbourne fans verbally going each other on the way down the stairs after the siren.

He's turned over in his grave so many times the energy could power the MCG lights.

This is the sort of thing that leads me to think they throw out the really wacky stuff so you'll pleased when it's 'only' moderate changes in the end.

SEN's entire business model seems to be clickbaiting you through to website articles where somebody says something moderately controversial. Works quite well.

He did a massive job on Sidebottom on Queen's Birthday 2016, kept him to one kick in the second quarter after he threatened to wreck us in the first. Not sure you're going to drag that out every week but he's got some form.

Why do birds suddenly appear, every time Max is near?

I'll be proposing to Max Gawn live on air

Need to win four more I reckon - Gold Coast + any two of Adelaide, Sydney, West Coast + GWS. If the teams around us suffered a spectacular Hawthorn vs Brisbane blowout (x2) it would certainly help. Next two weeks are crucial, if we lose both then shut the gate.

He was ok and deserves another chance, but I don't fancy the second half translating to playing against good teams.

In a tremendous pisstake I looked up while walking around the ground today and they were floating in the club office windows above me. Hopefully we celebrate the three more realistic birthdays with wins as well, especially when one of the 1858 options was on the last Saturday of September.

That is fake news live and in person.

A summary of the frivolous topics introduced in the lights out portion at the end of show Aiden Riley's tackle: Alan Partridge does Liam Jurrah Robbie Flower wins an award ... and a horrendous scan of an ad for the 125th year Commemorative Sword - as later sold at auction in the Ron Barassi collection. If you have one of these you must post a photo. Thanks @Demonland for having me on again!

That's nothing, the MFC lifted their entire article from it!

If I may be a [censored] here, the date Tom Wills' letter was published is in no way the birth of the MFC. More accurate dates: 31 July 1858 - First scratch match featuring players connected to the Melbourne Cricket Club 25 September 1858 - First game played by a team called 'Melbourne' vs South Yarra 14 May 1859 - The day the actual Melbourne Football Club was formed. For mine this is the real date, everything before then was a loose collection of players under the name 'Melbourne'. Thank you for allowing me to ruin the occasion.

He's fine with ball in hand, a complete liability when it's loose. Time for the old face-saving mystery injury.

As if the AFL won't be playing razzle dazzle half-court rules within a few years. Visionary preparation.

Might be a raging success like Kevin Bartlett, James Hird or Justin Leppitsch.

You certainly won't be posting about it on Demonland, the server will go up in flames.

Not sure if it means anything or is just a frivolous stat, but we've gone from 'conceding' the 14th most bounces by opposition players in a game last year to 3rd this season - rest of the top five Brisbane, Gold Coast, Freo and Carlton. If you can run quickly then football skills may be optional against us. Should have known something was up when Billy Hartung played like Robert Flower for the first half against North.

Sounds like he ticked off the talking points from the media department at 100% efficiency.
