Most of the rest is hurr we can't post cos we'll get carded.

Gold Striker. He writes well eh.

Scary thing is, some of those scenes remind me of my old drinking days with the boys during the dark days of the 70's & 80's. We had our own 'grog squad' before they were termed such i think.

And yes, this involved smuggling in cans of amber ale, UDLs, flasks of scotch and anything else we could get into our jackets :rolleyes: No bag checks in those days :lol:

Our chant after any games at the G was "To the Hilton, To the Hilton, To the Hilton Hilton Hilton!". Which was our way of heading to the MCG bar at the Hilton where we mostly had to drown our sorrows and put up with the odd opposition supporter or a small group of them cheering every time they kicked a goal on the tube as the replay was telecast. Occasionaly we were treated with a rare replay of a Demon victory. Always made a huge difference to the whole night lol.

On a few very rare occasions, the odd player would come in for a beer after match. I can only recall this on about 2 occasions. Although i was mostly smashed so my memory isn't the most reliable source. Definitely recall Jacko Jackson one time though. How would you be if that happened today. Beamer would've been booted!

We certainly didn't have a Queen Shazza tho. Thank lucifer for that!

    I think they hate us more than we hate them. That OP is gold.

    Important match this one. Of all the teams in the league, they are the most likely to become the new rival over the next 10 years.

    Errrrr? Gold Coast anyone?

    But in the interests of abusing opposition players I hope one of ours cleans up Ben Nason for that stupid haircut he used to sport. Don't care he's not playing, just get him in the stands. Juice, I am assigning you this job.

    Hey, that guy doesn't have a short back and sides! Get him!!!

    Yes & no.

    They have some serious talent on their list, but I wouldn't back them to hold onto all of it.

    I think in time it will all even out nicely.

    That's the spirit.

    Unless they play for us and then short of having neck tatts they can do as they please.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
