5,000 Collingwood fans meet at Lexus Park for a “ MAGPIE FANS ARE NOT STUPID” convention. Eddie Maguire says, “We are all here today to prove to the world that Collingwood supporters are not stupid ... can I have a volunteer?” Anthony Rocca gingerly works his way through the crowd and steps up to the stage.

Eddie asks him, “What is 15 plus 15?” After 15 or 20 seconds, Anthony says, “Eighteen!”

Obviously everyone is a little disappointed. Then all 5,000 Magpie fans start chanting, “GIVE HIM ANOTHER CHANCE! GIVE HIM ANOTHER CHANCE!”

Eddie says, “Well since we've gone to the trouble of getting 5,000 of you in one place and we have the worldwide press and global broadcast media here, I think we can give him another chance”. So he asks, “What is seven plus seven?” After nearly 30 seconds, Rocca eventually says, “Ninety!”

The president is quite perplexed, looks down and just lets out a dejected sigh. Everyone is disheartened. Rocca starts crying, and the 5,000 Collingwood fans begin to yell and wave their hands shouting, “GIVE HIM ANOTHER CHANCE!! GIVE HIM ANOTHER CHANCE!!” Eddie, unsure whether or not he is doing more harm than good, eventually says, “OK! Just one more chance … What's two plus two?”

Rocca closes his eyes, and after a full minute expires and lets out a gasp: “Four!”

Throughout Lexus Park pandemonium breaks out. All 5,000 Collingwood fans jump to their feet, wave their arms, stamp their feet and scream …

…

…

…

…

…

“GIVE HIM ANOTHER CHANCE! GIVE HIM ANOTHER CHANCE!”

I've got another joke - you will have to forgive me if I don't do a great job of it..

A man walks into a bar. There is a robot behind the bar, who says:

"I am your bartender for the night. I will bring you drinks and make conversation with you. What is your IQ?"

The man says "150" so they talk about physics, world politics, the economy and other weighty issues.

The man leaves, then decides to experiment. He walks back into the bar.

The robot says: "I am your bartender for the night. I will bring you drinks and make conversation with you. What is your IQ?"

The man says "100" so they talk about cars, tv and women with big breasts.

The man leaves the bar again, turns around and walks back in.

The robot says: "I am your bartender for the night. I will bring you drinks and make conversation with you. What is your IQ?"

The man says "50"

The robot thinks for a bit, then asks"

"So, are ya going to follow the Pies again this year?"

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
