Jazza/Red how are the boys looking on the training track?

My feeling is there will be improvement in 2015 but not too much.

Although I hope I am wrong as OD needs that premiership.

    Still think 8th not out of question.

    OD,is a major problem seeing the next flag.

    Although his secret trip to mexico for a full transplant of all internal organs went quite well.

    Blood transfusions from 16 yo virgins may even get him to live into the 2020 period.

    Not bad for a bloke who was born in 1848.

    I went last week and they looked in pretty good shape except of course Trenners and Watts nursing a groin.

    Hogan won 3 x 1k runs and looks just awesome. I have a man crush on him.

    Billy Stretch is slight and was also on a modified day.

    Petracca and Brayshw look ready to go with the mature recruits like HT, Garlett, Frost and Newton.

    They worked hard and the vibe was good with a lot of encouragement being given by players to team mates. I really believe there is a change in culture with most players from the losing culture having left.

    I am optimistic of a good year of improvement depending of course on injuries.

    I would love to see what Hogan can do in 2015.

    I am a bit worried people are putting to much pressure on him to be a super star from his first AFL game.

    Given our recent history I don't think people are expecting him to be a superstar from his first game. I am sure they would wait until his second game.

    Then again it may be just my usual sadness and despair that this time of year brings to me. I am sure dc is currently enjoying the company of a bluerinser and will have his choice of them tomorrow . For myself , even my family has abandoned me and I am destined to spend Christmas with the lads. They mean well but I cannot take them anywhere.

    Even friendless Biffen has his slags for comfort. But what of me? It is a cruel world.

    You appear to be crying out for help BBO, I suggest you spend some time with the good book, don't bother asking me which chapter or verse, just pick the bloody thing up and read from it, preferably in a sober state....

    Which, in particular, of the Marquis' works do you call "the good book" HL? I find them all both a comfort and inspiration.

    Compliments of the silly season.

    Just flicking through the last 600 pages here and wondering if the silly season ever had an end or a beginning.

    Jazza ,if you are going fishing, try having a shower as fish can smell the Bullsh!t from miles away.

    I am off to start some bush fires in Beech Forest with some CFA volunteer mates. We are going to be heroes if we can put it out.

    Nothing of any cultural significance there anyway.

    The land needs clearing.

    Col b- we missed that beer at the Bristol- she is all over as of last week.

    BBO. You have brought this Xmas solitude on yourself.Hope you enjoy reading the religious teaching of the Marquis. It is a tome written for the captive,solitary reader .

    Ethan - you are my fave gen y poster- keep up the [censored] taking.

    Red,WJ,OD. All the best gents and hope you are enjoying the festivities with your progeny.

    DC.Please give your urges a well earned rest today.It is a family time after all.

    The only stuffing should be in the Turkey.

    Frog. A picture paints a thousand words but if you could learn to write it would be a gift to us all.

    Hemlock. Your attempts to help the lost souls on here are admirable ,but ultimately futile.Carry on regardless.

    BJDEE.May you receive one today.

    Red and Bluebeard.Lay off the sauce mate.

    Earl. Stay safe and keep away from the Velvet Undergrads in Smith st today.There is a bad batch in town.

    Moonie - I hope you are over the trauma BBO has caused us all.

    Anyone else I forgot, see you at the Gat for a party tonigh.Top floor,up the back.

    Typical bloody cocky! Always thinking about yourself! What about important matters - such as the impact of rain on the Boxing Day Test?

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
