WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ED LANGDON
That’s a cruel photo. Gysberts had no heart for a contest or hard work. Scully was the traitor in the pack. Trenners injury was a curse. Fitz was like a 1970s rockstar. A big Maxy Gawn was the joker and eventually the CHAMPION in the park.

Fritsch at Home Forward
Fritsch was recruited as a forward. Played forward in 2018. Tried back and didn’t look comfortable from the 1st game. Finally moved back forward and returned to form. Goodys “masterstroke” about 7 weeks after Demonlanders screamed for it !!

MFC Top 10 highlights 2019
Agree except for Omcd first goal. It was a left foot dodgy wobbler. Summed up his year.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ED LANGDON
Dees need to prioritise Langdon. Speed. Run. Delivery. Pick 20 is about right.
-
Rawlings Leaves
Yes agreed. Bring in Yzeeeee

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
Get him in. Langdon and Tomlinson would be excellent additions.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - DEAKYN SMITH
Kobi George is the likely NGA player that will be definitely grabbed in the 2020 draft. Dees need to keep him under wraps. Not the star midfielder type but the smart fast half forward goalkicker. Think type of player like Josh Hill (former bulldog/eagle).

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ED LANGDON
It’s a crazy time. Anything can happen. Twists and turns. Like Mitch Clark choosing the Dees over Freo as Neelds masterstroke. Omg it’s a crazzzy world.

Petracca on the Move?
I agree with the hood here.

WELCOME TO DEMONLAND - ADAM TOMLINSON
Yes that is interesting

Trade Tom McDonald Thread
Three pages. It’s lunacy. I opened the door to the asylum.

List changes who do we cut, trade or go after.
Need to get creative. Hope can get Langdon and Tomlinson somehow

I think Jkh wants out. That’s a win win

Welcome to Demonland: Taj Woewodin
Agree Corcoran was the architect behind the salary cap disgrace as well. Massive ego. Should have stayed at the bummers

Collingwood- from the inside out
Buckley’s insights were compelling

Collingwood- from the inside out
Great footy documentary on the ABC tonight. Really close coverage of the Pies 2018 year and Buckley’s change from a dictator type coach who controlled the players TO an engaging human approach with a leadership core. It was great insight to how a footy club truly should work. No sense of entitlement. Hard work. Together. Mateship. Through adversity. Better together. I now hate them just a little less. They are still the filthy stinking pies. That’s footy.

Is there anything more Melbourne ...
I have never ever been skiing in Australia. Spent 2 months in Canada and loved it but that was 20 years ago. Do I hand in my membership?

Trade Tom McDonald Thread
Let’s be honest. We are suffering from DDSS. DISAPPOINTED DEMONS SUPPORTERS SYNDROME. A shocking mental disease that cripples it’s sufferers. Leaves you mentally on the edge “hope can be a cruel thing “

Brayshaw a Better Player After 2019
I love it.
-
List changes who do we cut, trade or go after.
Agreed. Gawn and Oliver are A grade. Clarry just needs someone to tell him to kick the fuc&))$n goal rather than handballing the footy inside 25 metres of goal. Then he’s dusty like !!

Rory Laird
I’d be as excited as Bruce Mcaveney seeing Lance buddy Franklin in action.

I just failed the concussion test. I’m missing next week.

NAB LEAGUE FINALS
Brodie Newman from Calder. Again showed his best. I only saw him play once this year against my local team (Chargers). He was like Easton Wood and Brendon Goddard type. Controlled the backline. Mature and composed and kicked with real purpose. Not a lot of hype but I reckon he is the AFL type. I will keep on seeing him as a pick 50-60 type. Think how the Hawks, Swans, Pies keep getting these types as 50+ bargains.
-
Petracca on the Move?
Couldn’t agree more. We can unleash hell in 2020 if we get fit and firing. We have the players to win it. Outside PACE and SMARTER inside 50 movement is the key.

Trade Tom McDonald Thread
Yes. I know. It’s like all the trades for Brayshaw, Petracca, Viney. Ridiculous isn’t it. Yet we have pages of pages. I think Gawn and Oliver might be the only safe ones if you read demonland. Crazy times and crazy posts ahead.
