Having a look at my best 22(team selection) I have realised that 8 players did not strip for the NAB cup. Now that really excites me:

They are- James Frawley (pectoral muscle), 7/8 WEEKS

Nathan Jones (back soreness), -2/3 weeks

Jordie McKenzie (groin soreness),- 2/3 weeks

Cale Morton (finger) 7/8 WEEKS

Ricky Petterd (hamstring) 2/3 weeks

Matthew Warnock (ankle) will miss through injury.- 2/3 weeks

Tom Scully- TBC

Austin Wonaeamirri -TBC.

That to me is unbelievable along with winning twice in Adelaide on the same night. GO DEES.

You know what he 'means'...

Some statistical humour for everyone.

Median is the word he is looking for.

Easy way to remember - the median strip runs down the middle of the road. Median strip.

Thanks rpfc, you are correct of course :wub:

I could be a smartrz and say I was just testing, but as I can never lie, it was just a brain fart

And I did do stats (at uni too) enough to know I didn't want to be an actuary

Anyway, as I think you said in another thread statistics don't "mean" much (at least some of them)

BTW we have median strips in my part of melb that don't run exactly down the middle, but I like your memory jogger anyway

You are complete moron Bobby. Of course the NAB cup is important, nearly as important as a flag. I was very excited with our efforts tonight. Post something sensible next time!

I agree with you, he's a bit of a Num skull at times.

He probobly doesn't understand that we need to recieve winning form & Mo-mentum, just ask Dunny.

The Dunny brush, hmmn,,, I feel a nickname comin on. the 'Janitor', just cleans Up. LoL. forgive me.

Our H/Way has got 3 median strips, so we're doing really well. And they're all parallel to one another, a little like 'corridors', side by side. they go all the way to the railway bridge, but then that wall stops them in they're tracks. The railways tracks.

I suspect this draw was scripted with the expectation that both Adelaide's would beat us as a prologue for their mini derby.

this was the conversation at AFL HQ

Douchebag1: 'well clearly it is logical to schedule the adelaide clubs and the WA clubs to host a match and have a side come from interstate, so 2 victorian sides will have to draw the short straw and travel straight up'

Douchebag2: 'ok, so, game 1 at AAMI... Melbourne?'

Douchebag1: 'obviously'

And playing two teams in Port & Adel at AAMI; coming away with wins

First time ever where we travelled interstate and had so much support. Crows fans went nuts and cheered whenever our players did something against Port. And probably vice versa.

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    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
