  1. Top 3 for goals in a pi$$ poor team isn't much to hang your hat on. Even then he couldn't get through a full season without getting injured. A very poor return for what we gave the Crows.
  2. Great picture of well meaning but totally clueless Demonland posters🤣🤣🤣🤣
  3. Actually I pointed out his age, record of never playing a full season & being regularly injured or not fully fit & suggested that this season was unlikely to be any different. Sorry to hurt your feelings with facts.
  4. Am I obnoxious because I pointed out that a lot of posters are well meaning but clueless ?
  5. My point is that Demonland is full of positive, idealistic well meaning supporters who have no grasp of reality.
  6. A lot of posters here have been kidding themselves about McAdam. The fact that he tried hard & is a lovely bloke are beside the point. There is a reason he has never completed a full season at AFL level. Certainly talented but struggled with fitness & very injury prone. He was always a high risk pick & now it's looking like a bust.
  7. So calling me a To$$er is ok under Demonland guidelines ??? Where are the moderators when you need them. You are totally in la la land about McAdam. I am simply stating the facts. At 29 years of age the best indicator of what Shane will do this year is what he did in the last 2 years - 7 games & 3 games. He is a bust.
  8. Reality check for the Demonland delusional. Turns 30 this year & has played 7 & 3 senior games in the last 2 years.
  9. Yes & he's 29, injury prone, has never played more than 15 games in a season & managed just 7 & 3 senior games in his last 2 seasons. Definitely not the messiah.
  10. Arguably the worst tribunal decision ever.
  11. I remember around the Gutnick era we were chuffed when we reached 20,000
  12. Goodness me even Binman can't get it right. Can't for the life of me work out why McAdam is so hard yet every 3rd Demonlander gets his name wrong.
  13. 3rd year at the Club & yet to play a game & over 1000 posts. Must be a record.
  14. 2nd year on the list, a pretty straighforward surname & you still can't get it right.
  15. Anybody disappointed about Tommo leaving watch a replay of last year's final game v Collingwood.
  16. Pro tip 58r - get someone to edit your posts - they're too long 😆😆 No Demonlander is going to read more than 2 paragraphs
  17. I'm counting the McAdams's posts.
  18. Well the book on the Krakouer brothers was called Brotherboys but these days in parts of Aboriginal society I understand that it can refer to trangender people
  19. Losing A grade talent like Dunkley & Smith suggests to me that it might be a Bevo problem.
  20. The small back pocket has to go to either Jetta or Whelan. Davey in for sure. Not sure post knee Ox or Robbo or Courageous Cam make it. Junior McD should be in & surely Pickett has done enough.
  21. What really killed Thommo was the last game of the season v Collingwood. He has a shocker, probably his worst ever game for us. Had goals kicked against him by different opponents.
  22. Cranky Franky replied to thirty-one's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Classic 60's menu. How times have changed. Instead of welcome to country they had a toast to the Queen.
  23. Agree about his Casey games. He certainly has natural ability & x factor. Needs to add fitness, discipline, consistency to his game. Hopefully after preseason & a year at Casey maybe he can challenge for a list spot.
  24. Yes and Max should not have played in the Sydney game either - he had the flu & was very poor. He has to stop playing when he's unfit or injured. Maybe that was ok when he was younger but it is now detrimental to the team.
  25. A bizarre response - thanks for the history of Dees wingmen. The point I am making is that given what happened with Angus it is inappropriate for anyone to be commenting or second guessing what Angus is thinking or planning or what he may or may not do. These are private matters for Angus to decide on.
