As far as stereotypes go, the snow's a pretty good one. I'm a rubbish snowboarder but I'm there most winters with the thousands of other people loving life. How can you not dig the snow? The snow is amazing. Won't be seeing me in a landrover though. You bunch of soccer mums.

"The match also has long-term ramifications given GWS has promised to bid for Demons father-son candidate Jack Viney should it finish below Melbourne. It would see the Demons giving up a top-three pick for Viney rather than a mid-20s national draft selection, adding salt to the wound opened when the Giants poached Scully." When did this happen?

Would be a rough old week if we lost to the Giants.

Eyy, someone else knows the Blue Hearts! If you haven't seen it yet, there's a great Japanese movie called 'Linda! Linda! Linda!' with a Japanese high school girl band covering a bunch of their songs. Great thread Macca,

Ah ok, so we actually have to state we're taking him at pick 3 and therefore can't use it in trades? I figured you just have to say you'll take him at the next eligible pick.

Kinda makes sense to trade out our pick 3 if we'll have to use it for Viney anyway. In effect, if GWS and GC were going to force our hand then we'd be only be losing out on pick 25. Make sense?

So what if you're right? Crying Jack Darling like you're Mel Gibson in Braveheart isn't helping anyone. Our head of recruiting from that draft's moved on anyway. Is this another one of those 'we have to demand better as Melbourne supporters' moments? Get over it dude.

Whatev's man, maybe take up yoga or pilates or something. Howe at 33 was a steal. Jack Darling can lick my left nut.

Couch for Tapscott would be nice but see no reason to bring Petterd in. Recovering from a hammy and can't even perform for Casey at the moment.

[media=] Watch the end of this video to see us getting rag-dolled in the 2000 grand final. Makes me feel sick. Can't believe titan's suggesting Essendon weren't a bunch of Cs back then, guess that's still Hird's face working as their poster boy. That game was our soft, fairy-tale team versus a bunch of hardnut pricks and we got fkn rooolllled. Reminds me how much I hated the footy we were playing under Bailey, soft fancy shite. Looking forward to seeing more of the same aggression from Tappy, and loving the style of footy that Neeld is bringing to our club.

He'll come good, showed a lot of promise with limited opportunity. Not much you can do or foresee with stress fractures in the back, just gotta let it play out.

Dustin Martin's struggling at the moment as well, showing very few glimpses of what made him so impressive last year. Looking at the draft, the only other player I'd love in our team is Fyfe and he's out injured now anyway. Neeld mentioned in an interview that Trengove was 2nd on the gps thing that shows how far each player runs during the game. I get the feeling he's just running himself into the ground plus his focus would be on the gameplan, his team mates and getting the defensive side of things down. Once this becomes second nature, his natural game will come out again and you'll start seeing the flashes of an elite player in the making again. I am a little worried about his pace but I'll put that down to training load and the amount of running he's doing on gameday. Either way, he'll definitely benefit from when our basic defensive structures are down and he can play more offensively. Obviously has leadership in spades or he wouldn't have been made captain at 20 and he's shown in the last two years that he's going to be a very good player. Happy to give him the benefit of the doubt in the mean time, I reckon we'll watch his fortunes change as the team's do.

Na me either mate, just pointing out the ridiculousness of the argument.

And so, Demonland was split in two: the haters, and the people who dig Cale Morton.

His turnovers were frustrating because they were so momentum destroying. About 3 or 4 times he kicked it directly to a free Collingwood player, straight away resulting in a goal for them and it was just deflating. Really costly obvious stuff that is painful to watch. Hoping Taggert, Evans or even Bail come good soon to push for his spot in the side.

Felt a bit sorry Tappy tonight. Don't think he intended to hurt Fasolo as bad as he did. Went into his shell for a few minutes afterwards but everyone was gunning for him and every kick he had was getting huge boos from the pies mob so he responded by going hard really back. Know the feeling when you've got a whole team trying to get a cheap shot on you. Other than that I think he's improving well as the season goes on. Huge strength but I think he's lacking a bit of balance at this stage, seems to get poleaxed a lot since he's always landing badly. Big fan of Tappy.

Morton

Cale

Very ugly game from Melbourne. Really disappointed. Clark still my favourite man on the ground.

Pendlebury, Jobe Watson and Mark LeCras with a good knee.

Should be able to get the Australia channel in Singapore. Find an Aussie bar, hotel, guesthouse, backpackers, whatever with decent television and they'll show it on that, should be a breeze over there. Rock up at the airport if you have to.

Who cares? The snow is awesome.

Let's just bring him in and the naysayers can get over it like they did Clark.

Classic example is him rapping Gawny on the head with his knuckles after he took the mark before his first goal. Commentators didn't even mention it. Just dumb. Suppose you can get away with it when you're 80 years old.

I'm still high fiving unicorns after last weekend. See how we go after Monday.
