Chandlermonium as a derivation of pandemonium? According to 'demons' Wiki "Pandæmonium" or "Pandemonium" stems from the Gk. "παν", meaning "all" or "every", and "δαιμόνιον", a diminutive form meaning "little spirit", "little angel", or, as Christians interpreted it, "little daemon", and later, demon. It roughly translates as "All Demons", but can also be interpreted as Παν-δαιμον-ειον, Pandemoneios or "all-demon-place". So if our little angel Kade doesn't make it this season it could be paradise lost?

Yes we’re waiting for Benny’s new snap without the sideshow ‘Bob’.

Kev, Richo had a valid point when he suggested we started the game with a winning mindset and often established a decent lead. But after halftime we went into our shells and attempted to save the game resulting in being dumped by the opposition's momentum wave by the final siren. If we can ride the wave this season with a whole game winning belief as exhibited in '21 we can bounce back decisively.

G man that analysis of Essendon's chances for season '23 was a good read, articulate, lucid and giving the boys at Mongrel Punt and Zero Hanger a run for their money. Perhaps you should go independent too! PS Your avatar image is a bit of a puzzle? My take some poor bloke is struggling to get his prosthetic leg from under the director's chair in a movie set.

Odds appear to be shortening on Judd McVee to break the duck and be amongst the first of the young uncapped guns to debut. Exciting times ahead! Go Dees.

Seems so...

There's a 'few' lurking at other clubs including Karl Amon, Josh Battle , Aidan Bonar, Andrew Brayshaw, Charlie Constable, Luke Davies-Uniacke, Jack Gunston, Hugo Hall-Kalan, Max and Ben King, Connor MacDonald, Hugo Ralph-Smith, Jack Scrimshaw, Liam Stocker, Cody Weightman, Marcus Windhager and Josh Worrell.* Austin Bradkte was on the rookie list briefly, Jack Bell once listed at St Kilda, played with Casey last season. Paul Hopgood, Stefan Martin, Laurie Queay, Tom Scully, Tom Lynch and Stewart Loewe are Old Haileybury-VFL/AFL alumni. Scott Pendlebury and Nathan Jones will join Matthew Lloyd on the coaching panel this year at Haileybury. So it's not unreasonable to expect more AFL class recruits from this school's footy program.

Yes. As long as he’s got a wicked curved beak, talons and can pick up the crumbs :)

Don't think BBB is quite the liability some here believe when the ball hits the deck. As with Big Max its a long way down but IMM they don't disgrace themselves when contesting for the ball and deftly moving it on to the team's advantage when the opportunity arises. Of course the opposition defenders are going to have their say on proceedings, amongst the 'giraffes' are more agile 'gazelles' and 'wildebeests' who can quickly sweep the ball away giving the impression the big guys are lumbering in their wake. A few 'leopards' and 'cheetahs' might be required to redress the balance.

Modern list management maintains the cap admirably.

Are some of the DL silks amongst the track watchers?

Prefer that to navigating Aguirre (Klaus Kinski) down the Amazon River!

Congrats KT on taking the big step from Magenta and Black to premiership Red 'n Blue. Profile adjusted accordingly!

Given the dearth of debutante’s since ‘21 expecting for the floodgates to open? Probably not but it would be good to blood some new blokes. Deakyn Smith and Andy Moniz-Wakefield are part of the posse pushing participation.

New guy or gal appears to have their training wheels on (big shoes after Gibbo to fill in) Most shots were rather static rather than action freeze motion. Exceptions were two fabulous portraits of Harry and Will no doubt Megan and Kate will be impressed.

On a very small sample so far but the way Deakyn moves is reminiscent TMM of Stan Alves in his pomp. Particularly his ability to weave in traffic with baulks and dummies. In a Casey game last season he attempted this outrageous blind turn on a sixpence absolute twinkle toes. Something that is very rarely seen today in football. If he can master just half the evasive skills of the #15 maestro he will be on his way.

We suspect Picket may have been here recently!

Are the brain's trust also applying the collective 'gruppendenken' to the behinds kick out?

Andy, Andy Moniz-Wakefield assume he's back with the main group? How is he traveling?

Picket can we be assured no 'daleks' were harmed in the making of this report?

Home and Away take the 'G Finals Premiership @ MCG

If he makes the list will add him to the posse of up and coming young gunslingers [sic] Judd McVee

Thank you how is KT going?
