  1. Just a question - I wonder if the AFL have planned ahead as to what happens to those poor buggers drafted to EssenDrug should the club be suspended?
  2. I like the result but really, like most here, didn't have much of clue abut him, other than his catchy name. Just hope he doesn't go to Dallas.
  3. All true Demon fans, and most on this site would agree, though I guess a few soothsayers would be pi%%ed off if he had a better season that Ollie
  4. OMG this is a quiet time of year - 25 (now 26) posts on this non-event.
  5. I concur with Moonshadow: the Isaac Heeney one is pure gold. A great review and probably as true as any and brought quite a few laughs.
  6. sex or politics ?And I have absolutely no idea if this diet is a fad or if it will improve our team's performance, and I doubt if anybody really does know. Time will tell. But at least we aren't trying out unproven and unregistered drugs on our players.
  7. They can number backwards from 99 for all I care. Enough of this sentimentality (like the Blazers). Just put out a team that can play! GO DEES!!
  8. Mods - many, myself included are longing for a"dislike" or "no!!!" button to use in circumstances such as this
  9. Many posters on this thread sem to have not read the headr - it has been hijacked as a McCartin thread.
  10. Wow - another "make a guess" thread which is manna from heaven for both the optimists ('top 4') and the pessimists ('bottom, we are crap'). To the pessimists who have us 18th - we aren't absolutely certain that WADA won't step in after the AFL issue their 'non-penalty' against a certain drug cheating club and ensure that it is a 17 team competition.
  11. I was of the same view and still believe that Col could have won a Brownlow had he chosen to apply himself and utilize his natural talent to the max. It pi5535 me off to see this when guys with limited talent work their guts out, like Jordie, and can't quite make it. Surely even a simple "tent" type structure from Bunnings, only worth a handful of bucks, would be better than finding a tree in a crowded place.
  12. Please remind me how many games Jeremy played as a forward this year?
  13. Pelaco Inquest 7pm Saturday was compulsory viewing when the panel discussed and dissected the six games played at 2:10 pm every Saturday. Most weeks Melbourne won......Ahhhh, the memories.
  14. I agree 100% with those posters above who just wish they would turn the PA system off especially at the quarter breaks. If done want crappy music let them bring headphones: I like to chat with mates uninterrupted. It is a real turn off - I wasn't asked to be one of the hundred. If I wanted to listen to over amplified crappy music, and incessant fluffed up hype I would make a choice to go to watch basket ball: our game, yes AFL, OUR game not yours, doesn't need all this artificial crap. All sounds so much like Kevin Rudd's "brightest and smartest" (or whatever) BS summit to set the course of Australia's future, which was merely a photo op for dear Kev to schmooze with "celebrities" Did anyone here get an invitation to this latest fest??
  15. Probably just a tad early to call Jayden Hunt a smokey - I had always thought that meant a late pick who became a star eg Chris Grant, (or James Hird the once famous footballer) not merely a late pick per se. That is not to write Jayden off, but no way I could call him a smokey at this stage
  16. Never heard that expression before on Demonland -- other than for Strauss, Blease, Gysberts, Maric, <insert countless other disappointments>
  17. Interesting that this is available but not the truly wonderful GFs including 1948, 55, 56, 57, 59, 60 & 64 ? The crowd was just so uniform: suits/coats, ties, hats/caps according I guess to social class, but no trackydax and no footy jumpers !
  18. Beautifully said if statistically incorrect, and the new listing of that lying slime who went to GW$ is brilliant.
  19. Mainly depends on how bad it was: some have been known to get back to lower level footy in a week or two. Others take much longer. Wasn't it (possibly Matt Thomas) a PA player who missed most of a season and lost ?10 kgm. Can't generalise. Just let us all* hope that he gets to a fitness level that will let him show us all his best. *I guess the ' shoulda got Wines camp ' may not.
  20. Devil inside - thanks for the report for those of us who can't get there What is the reference to Dom and the harness? Is it one of those thingos they drag in rugby training?
  21. The guy is now essentially into his second pre season so now is when we should hope to see some real progress.
  22. How can you sleep??
  23. You are being far too polite - I guess you are intimidated by our moderators
  24. Frawley? $cully ? Hope he puts in and forces us to make an appropriate offer, OR GW$ make us a trade for a decent mid.
