  1. This team is just plain lazy… they cannot expect to win if they don’t put in the effort. Too many players just walking around.

    The umpires have lost the plot completely.

    Both teams’ disposal is awful… at least the Doggies are marking the thing.

    I’m conflicted on Greene… he’s a different cat and a brilliant player. It’s a shame he has so little self control; he’s the Nick Kyrgios of footy!

    Is there any player going around who’s more irritating that Weightman?
  6. I’ll preface this by apologising to Demonland and other mods as this is a shameless plug with not a lot (well, nothing really), to do with footy other than the fact we have the Dees in common. I just know that if I post in the General Discussion forum, it most likely won’t reach the intended audience. However, delete if you see fit. My band Los Romeos Oxidados are venturing down from Sydney to play at Smith’s Alternative in Alinga St, Civic this Sunday, 3rd April from 4-6pm. Would love it if any of you could make it… unfortunately Grand Old Flag isn’t on the playlist. https://www.smithsalternative.com/events/los-romeos-oxidados-75253

    Actually, according to the NSW Demons Supporter Club Facebook page, they do still meet at the Camelia Grove… that’s based on a post by Sally Trevena from 5 days ago. https://www.facebook.com/groups/nswdemons

    I’m guessing they may have relocated 🤣

    Don’t know if they still do, but the Sydney Demons would usually gather at the Camelia Grove Hotel in Alexandria, just a short walk from Erskinville Station.

    Can’t say I blame them.
  11. hardtack replied to Demonland's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    What a game!!
  12. I liked the description given by a friend… a case of Feud and Beveridge.

    Especially if doing all three at the same time.
  14. That’s very sad news. We haven’t been down to Melbourne since COVID hit, so I hadn’t realised that it had closed. Hope you enjoy whatever place you end up going to.
  15. I don’t know if they do yum cha, but I highly recommend the Mao Please dumpling restaurant in Little Bourke St. Fantastic dumplings and noodle dishes. I make a point of going there whenever I’m in Melbourne.

    I believe he’s playing in their VFL team, so he may still get the chance to shine on the field as well as off.

    Trac was asked on AFL360 to name his top 5… he named Buddy as his number 5.
  18. The issue with the 50m penalty is that it can never be consistent as it will be ruled according to the individual umpire’s tolerance or mood on the day. I get the feeling there are going to be more than a few games ruined this year by this rule.
  19. It doesn’t matter, what we think is abuse or otherwise. The players know that dissent will not be tolerated, so they’ll have to keep their thoughts to themselves. It’s not as if they’re going to change the decision anyway. Best they learn now, before the season gets underway, I suppose.

  21. If such a flag was agreed to, I’d prefer that the kangaroo was replaced by the stars of the southern cross (in yellow). Having said that though, appropriating the indigenous flag in this way (removing the sun which is an integral part of their flag), might not sit well with the first nations’ people. That’s why it probably makes more sense to have it replace the Union Jack on the existing flag, or go with an entirely different design that doesn’t lend itself to any existing flags at all. Also, why would we want a flag like the first of those two, that uses the QANTAS kangaroo??
  22. Im not the most observant individual, but are those tatts on Max’s leg a new addition?
  23. Well I honestly don’t know what you’re watching tonight (maybe you did turn it off?), but both have been consistently hitting targets in this game. Unfortunately they’re not getting much support from many of their team mates.
  24. There’s no way this team will win a premiership given the way that they fold against decent opposition. Daisy and Paxman are both very good kicks, more often than not hitting targets.

    Where did you get that bit of info from? I just did a bit of googling and could find nothing that claims someone has been paying artists to remove their work from Spotify.
