  1. So the AFL wants even more money from both bookies and gamblers, had a former umpire recently on the run, provides a draw that allows the most powerful clubs a distinct advantage (Geelong playing Richmond twice), has a free agency system that sees the better players almost always move to stronger clubs, a farcical academy system where rules are changed to suit (see Mac Andrews), and half of the remaining games now having no bearing on the finals and thereby even more ripe for manipulation. Don't even get me started on Michael Christian. I'll breathe. But, in short, I've never been so disengaged in the game I grew up with. Love my Demons but the broader game is a shambles right now. All under the watch of Andrew Dillon who would be better off running a Jim's Mowing franchise. Good morning Demonlanders.
  2. Surely. I mean, we gave Luke bloody Dunstan a contract.
  3. Confirmed. Almost too visible
  4. Just thinking that AMW looked prime to really step up before his injury. Loved his dare and can't wait to see what he can offer in 2026.
  5. Stating the obvious CF, but we're a team that no longer matches the sum of it's parts. My concern with Christian is that I no longer (or rarely) see him trying to bring his teammates into the game. Would like to see him being a little more team orientated. That may be harsh.
  6. Would be sorely tempted to put Windsor on as a tactical sub. And with a license to move up and down the corridor.
  7. He's a New South Welshman. Will certainly get a better run at it than the Renshaw's of this world
  8. I saw him described somewhere as a generational talent DJ. I'm not seeing it, not in Tests.
  9. They may have to throw a couple more draft picks the Suns way, if this continues. Maybe introduce a new rule that disallows Kalani from moving interstate as a first year player.
  10. Old Dee, I've thought for quite a while, he's overrated full stop. Gets a fair bit of the ball but there's a lot of nothing disposals. Then we're told he's playing a sensational game.
  11. What's that saying HG, 'just because I'm paranoid, doesn't mean it isn't true'.
  12. Spot on Deegirl. And just when you think you could get away from clickbait journalism and find refuge in just supporting your team, it's in your face on steroids.
  13. @joeboy I should also add that I read your 3 word analysis regularly and do enjoy your work. We all get frustrated with losing and I am no different
  14. A whole lot of babble which means nothing. Ok, did you think Trent Rivers looked disinterested?
  15. No, I'm into a bit of logic. You should try it. If 20 or so players are deemed hopeless, heartless, past it or disinterested, it's impossible for them to lose by 4 goals. If you agree with all of those half - baked assessments, do yourself a favour and don't follow the team at all.
