  1. I thought this was a good comment at the bottom of the article. The Demons left a premiership on the table in 2023. (Not saying Collingwood didn't deserve theirs.) Goodwin's brand of footy is taxing on players. I wonder if Stephen May's comment at the Melbourne best and fairest last year has more merit than initially meets the eye. A team can be 'up' for only so long before 'system fatigue', such as Goodwin's, takes its toll.
  2. The AFL won't pay you what you're worth @WalkingCivilWar.
  3. What colour boots does he wear? Will tell us everything we need to know.
  4. Experts in at least one capability that I can think of.
  5. The smartest person in this room is @WalkingCivilWar @picket fence. She knows plain language English much better than me. Over to her.
  6. Stupid question on 'Land @picket fence. You should know better than most we are in a post-truth world. Rules are 'schemes of arrangement' and facts are the last thoughts that ran through the brain picked up from an ever increasing shrill and delusional public discourse.
  7. 'We were not beaten. We didn't win enough seats to form a government, but I do not believe what has occurred was in any sense a defeat'. Billy Sneddon, 1974.
  8. If Jobe doesn't get better at special comments, he runs the risk of being the storm in a tea cup.
  9. Did you have a win as a result though @Nasher?
  10. And how did Errol slip through to pick 32? It's not like he was a late bloomer. I understand he's AFLney academy - but [censored].
  11. I really hope Goody doesn't read this memo.
  12. So he arrives with a winning mind-set then @WalkingCivilWar.
  13. Brian Peake did it. Me mate even has a helicopter he'll lend us. All sorted I recon.
  14. He's standing on a mat with platform joggers :-)
  15. Great support for our players.
  16. I don't mind the look of that young bloke six lines down. How would he fit in in 2024?
  17. One of the albums of the 1970's. Still going around beautifully. Put him into YouTube - worth the trouble.
  18. I've found that a pretty big problem myself actually. I never get out of bed for $2 mill over 5 years.
  19. They're huddled in a secret bunker beneath the MCG, plotting their next move like a bunch of MI6 operatives. They've got a giant chalkboard covered in cryptic formulas and strategies, with references to Dermie’s footy brain. Meanwhile, the fans have taken to social media with pitchforks and flaming torches, rallying like a scene from a dystopian movie. They're demanding heads on platters, or at the very least, a solid game plan that doesn’t involve kicking, marking, running or hand balling.
  20. I've got two handfuls of straws @Oxdee. Would you like some?
  21. Except a premiership 32 months ago.
  22. Um - yes it does. You seen Essendscum's draw scheme of arrangement?
  23. For goodness sake @WalkingCivilWar . . . the answer is obvious. MCQualter and Yze. @ElDiablo14 said so himself. He's on top of it . . .
  24. Sorry - name one "top talent" (as you put it) that the Flith has recruited in the last two years that would have filled a need at the Deez?
