Yep ... And though he's tough as they come he aint big or scary.
-
We'll go down. The 'Dynasty' is over and normal programming will now resume. Sunday arvos here we come.
-
And this is what bugs me the most. Essendon and Collingwood are celebrated on ANZAC day because no matter how bad either of them are going they put on a show usually. Us ... Nup, turn up our toes like the basket case we are. Oh .... And sick of all the BS coming from the club. Just STFU and play. Don't care what ya think ya gonna do. Just forken .... DO.

And that .... Is why I went fishin' instead. Still had to turn the radio off just after half time cause they were ruining my serenity. Pathetic.

Sunday footy show - Who is the greatest Demon of all time?

Just found a clip I hadn't seen before. -
Which is exactly what they want.

He would but he'd have to get his own ball.

It's only dusk. Unless we do some amazing trading/drafting the dawn is ages away.

Ah Demonland post loss. Get tired of dissecting the game and then turn on each other. I've just dropped by to declare my disgust before bed as I prepare to face the clowns at work in the morning. But hey, done it most my life so I'll just chuckle, agree the Dees are a joke and move on. Gonna be in a world of pain when Tassie comes in. But hey, done that a few times before too eh. Chins up folks.

100%. And apart from the flag they played in another state during a season with no crowds and almost choked, the era's been a fail. There are few clubs who can embarrass their supporters like ours. Forken Goodwin bangin' on about earning respect ... My god.

What a joke this club is.

The AFL will come up with some BS propaganda for the Golden Boy. St.Kilda player already in a falling motion, Low impact , accidental football action , yadda yadda .... Here's a fine play on. -

I'll just leave this here. 40mins of poetry. And didn't we love him. -
Been bangin' on about manipulation of outcomes by the corrupt AFL for ages. Fixturing, umpiring, goal review, MRP are all used to manipulate an outcome. The AFL follow the money and their "Umpire Coach" excuse was typically shonky AF. The sheeple call them conspiracy theories. I call 'em Spoiler Alerts.

And how do you get a huge supporter base? Not by boring everyone to death that's for sure.
-
If sport isn't entertainment .... Why do we watch? The AFL is fighting for the attention of the masses against all other forms of entertainment out there. And if you have contact with any kids these days you'll notice they have the attention spans of gnats. Then try keeping one amused through a Melbourne game.

Well 5 yrs from now when you're at Marvel among 20thousand other miserable people on a sunday arvo every week I'll remind you of my beef. Or maybe not cause they're losing my interest and when Gawn and co. retire and we inevitably fall off the cliff I'll be done. The game isn't what I loved anymore.
-
Aint that a fact. My beef is that we play dour, unattractive football every week. A few weeks ago we played the Cats in primetime and neither team kicked a goal in the second qtr. An advertisers nightmare. Meanwhile Essendon gets gifted multiple primetime games over the rest of the season. Coincidence ..... I think not. Anyway, we've got the best list of my time (tho' Danihers list was pretty good) and we're wasting the opportunity to expand the club by playing boring, unattractive, scrappy football. Goodwin needs to remember he's in the entertainment business. For the club to not just wither away we need to entertain "the mob". Get bums on seats, eyes on TVs, sponsors at the door and keep the Premiership generation kids attention. And ya don't do that by playing boring footy in primetime games, chocking in finals or embarrassing the club like they did last week.

I'm struggling watching us week after week. And we're supposed to be good. This week I watched the 1st half. Half time I decided I wasn't gonna waste the whole afternoon watching this boring sheet and so headed to the back yard. I get out there and Nathan Brown's on the radio talking about the Aints making the game a boring scrap in order to stay in touch with us. I'm there thinking "BS, it's us who turn games into boring scrap .... Every forken week, no matter who we play." And we're supposed to be good. Goodwin is wasting the golden window to build this club boring us all to tears. And then we lose to teams like West Coast led by a kid. We might not be as far away from another flag than the aints but we're drifting away, not closer.

Harvey Norman clanger.

Not that I do much watching of opposition unless they're playing us. I gotta go with Toby Green too. Plays on the ragged edge and ya just never know what he's gonna do. Dazzle with some brilliance or kick somebodies head off.

I'm on my way. 2024 and the outbreak of squealing Karens is forked .
-
He was near stationary. Both feet planted. In this new world he might get a couple weeks cause the bloke was KO'd but the Karens calling for his head need to get a grip. Play on I say.

Max Gawn.... A giant of a gentleman and bloody good bloke.
Fork 'em replied to leave it to deever's topic in Melbourne Demons
Twice I've teared up watching footy and I posted both of them. His after the siren goal to finish the season on top for the 1st time in my life. And then the moment I knew he was taking us to the GF with his running bomb in the Prelim. Both against Geelong 😅 Good times.
