Onya Robbo
If we had a tagger that shut down a Daicos or Neale we would be lauding them. I don’t have a problem with McGuinness trying to blanket Clarry for 3 qtrs. I am not sure if Goodwin would make the same comments again but it was great to see him deviate out of the ‘trained incredibly hard’, ‘I’m incredibly proud’ cliches for a moment.

Brilliant - Free the Demons AFLW premiership doco
Exceptional circumstances here Spalding. You must be really proud. Maybe support the Hawk AFLW side during the home and away and come back to the Dees if the Hawks don’t make finals?

Brilliant - Free the Demons AFLW premiership doco
14 of the 17 other captains voted Melbourne to go back to back this season. Get on board Demonlanders. You know it makes sense!

Max Gawn’s First Goal
Jeepers! Stefan Martin was Max’s ruck partner that day. That does feel like a long time ago

AFLW Preseason & Season Start Dates
I’ll be honest I thought Campbell was not going to make it. She played as a forward in a couple of the early VFLW games and looked out of place. As Dees in October said she played in the ruck today and was getting a lot of air at the centre bounces. Apparently she was a Victorian age high jumper so that will explain the leap. In the last she was out jumping the Hawks ruck and hitting the ball forward where our mids would run onto it and kick quickly to the forwards. Early days but looked good.

Pick your favourite Demons side of all time
God bless his cotton socks, but I am pretty sure when the Collingwood players saw Godders kicking on the run goals from just inside 50, they knew it wasn’t going to be their day

Pick your favourite Demons side of all time
Perhaps we can do our own version of this comp? At least we wouldn’t be putting up Nathan Carroll as a potential best ever defender. Can’t wait to see if Simon Godfrey is on offer as a mid.

The whole thing is tragic. Misspelling Sean Wight’s name, the choice of players and then the shameless marketing grab for your personal details. They need my date of birth to enter ?? FO!

And the US. There can’t be a lack of athletic 6’ 10” centres who miss out on the NBA.

Farewell Mitch Hannan
I remember he had a purple patch about half way through his first season. He was kicking opportunistic goals from everywhere and I thought we had found a real player. Unfortunately it wasn’t to be. Having said that, not too many AFL players can retire with an iconic elimination final sealer on their highlight real.

What they are saying at Arden Street
In that era I would consider anything under a 10 goal loss as a moral victory.

NON-MFC: Rd 20 2023
Titus O’Reilly’s take on the incident. You don’t have to read too hard between the lines to realise he may agree with you WCW. “I’ve got a lot of sympathy for Zorko; there’s no cleaner player in the AFL”

AFLW Fixture 2023
Great chart D.I.O. I do tend to get outraged as to how this club seems to be habitually shafted in both men’s and women’s fixtures. Luckily though the AFL can’t predict what teams will go backwards and what others will stagnate. That draw shouldn’t end up being as difficult as it initially looks. Apparently we also go interstate more than most Victorian teams too, but that’s almost a good thing as the team seem to travel well together. I am really forward to this season

2023 AFL National Draft prospects: The next batch
A while back this draft year was touted as a ‘super draft’. Does anyone know how strong and deep it is looking now?

The Kalani White Thread
Jeepers! Buy Gold Coast Suns shares. 5 of the starting 18 are from the Suns academy which is the same number as all of Victoria. Lucky one of them is coming to us

Well I am the odd man out then. I don’t mind Barrett and listen to his AFL Dailey program when I remember
