NON-MFC: Round 4, 2022
I don’t disagree with that assessment but how insane is the hype/pressure on these kids. The media had gone mental with the hype on JUH before he’d even played a senior game. They have no time to develop.

AFLW GAMEDAY: Grand Final vs Adelaide
Are we sure Harris and Weed aren’t related. Second efforts don’t seem to be their thing.

CHANGES: Rd 05 vs GWS
Agree, Spargo has been average. I’d drop him before Pickett
-
Angus Brayshaw
Possibly a silly question - other than Jon Ralph reporting it, has anyone heard anything genuine about Brayshaw thinking he should be playing in the midfield? The media keep reviving this line (feel like it’s been floating around since at least 2020) but is it anywhere near correct?

POSTGAME: Rd 02 vs Gold Coast
Can’t wait for Viney’s little girl to be a father/daughter pick. Don’t think the AFLW would be ready for it 😁

Bevo unleashes on Tom Morris
It was an embarrassing performance. Beveridge came off as a petulant sook. To make the mental health argument was pretty poor. If he was annoyed with Morris he should’ve discussed it in private.

2021 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver
I've said this before. Clarry is VB, Trac is craft beer. You need both for an awesome party 😁

Premiership Cup Tour
The photo was circa 1987/88, in the old red seats area. My Dad had a mate who was a sports photographer and he yelled up from the boundary for us to stand up and take a photo. I was mortified because the entire section turned around to stare at us. Which is the reason for the grumpy face 😁

Premiership Cup Tour
I visited the Sports Museum today. Had to queue for about 40minutes to get the photo but it was well worth it. We went full footy nuff 😂

COVID & AFL 2021
Who remembers the scene in Trainspotting where Begbie lectures Renton about using heroin? ‘No wey would I poison my body with that [censored]. All they [censored] chemicals’ (while smashing a scotch & sucking on a dury). That’s what these anti-vax types sound like when they say they don’t trust what’s in the vaccine.

Burgess reveals secret to Dees' incredible injury-free run
Jofra Archer is a good example of how the small workload/short spells can really backfire. He wasn't used to big workloads and when he got loaded up in tests he broke down.

As Tommy Hafey would say - he's a good boy

Hibberd Signs On for 2022
Halfway through the last quarter I actually said "I reckon Hibberd will retire after this". I wouldn't be surprised if he did, but happy for him to sign on for another year.

A team mate's assessments
Trac was in full berserker mode after that goal 😂

Apologies to Premiership Players
You guys are only listing players? I have apologise to the entire list, coaching staff & admin 😂 Harmes - called him the dumbest footballer alive (on multiple occasions) Trac - season 2019 I was worried he'd be another Colin Sylvia/Jacks Watts - lots of potential but no consistency Jackson - didn't bag him, but as he's so young expected his form to be up & down Viney - Extremely critical of his left-sidedness. And his form this season after he returned from injury (when he was in peak 'see ball, get ball' mode). Lever - circa 2019 I called him an expensive half-back flanker Spargo - called him a slow midget Brayshaw - questioned what the hell had happened to him since 2018 Clarry - seriously questioned his haircut choices Hibberd - thought he was done McDonald - thought he was done + questioned what the hell had happened to him since 2018. Put [censored] on his all meat diet. ANB - had him in the 'athlete but not a footballer' bucket Fritsch - criticised his set shot kicking...a lot Sparrow - just wasn't sure Pickett - given his tough start to the year I didn't expect him to hold his senior spot all season Brown - put [censored] on his veganism Goodwin - thought he didn't show enough intensity Richardson - questioned what the hell it was he did Stafford - when we'd been so inaccurate in 2020 i wondered why an ex-ruckman was our goal kicking coach (yes, I'm aware of the soft cap restrictions) Pert - catergosied him as a general [censored]...and i never liked him as a player 😁

Help needed - GF badges
Thanks @Robbie57!

Help needed - GF badges
Hi Demonlanders, Remember the badges with members names that MFC gave out to WA fans during the finals? I’m desperately trying to track down the badge with my last name as a Christmas gift for my father. Does anyone have any contacts in WA? I’m trying eBay too but thought I’d reach out to the hardcores first 😆

To be an arrogant fan?
Success has been been fantastic but I seriously doubt anyone will forget the tough years. Season 2013 scarred me for life 😂

Nev Jetta Joins the Magpies
And Nev will be playing in their VFL side. A very good hire from them. All the best Nev, always a Demon.

How far off were we from a perfect 2021?
We were the best team all home & away season We were the best team of the finals To me, that's perfect

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
Don't worry, circa 2019 I called Lever an expensive half back flanker. Shows what I know!

VOTES: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
Trac, Claz & Dogga in the centre ruck in the third quater. Salem, Brown & Brayshaw. My review, incoherent? Yes. dud everyone play their role? Yes. The Mighty Dees. #LFG

Earthquake...a bad omen
This is a positive, it was the spirit of Norm Smith letting us know he's fired up for Saturday.

The thing you’re most tired of hearing
This. This 'hard done by' narrative is always given to them. That's why I can't stand the club or their supporters. You won a premiership in 2016, you ain't hard done by.
