Just ordered 3 gallon of red wine and 420 packets of chewing gum from the local soopy.

Spose i will win the monthly bet with BBO and learn to guzzle red at the same time.

Wish biff was here to help.

Sounds like you should compare notes with Demoneyes, jazza. Just don't let it all go up in a puff of smoke ... :)

Seems it’s gone the way of the Joel Smith tests positive thread aka the Demonland Bermuda Triangle.

It was not that long ago people were saying the Dees would fall apart without Hogan. Glad to see they were wrong. I tend not to follow ex players as I lose interest once they leave the club. I mu

Drink up Jazzy O, you don't need Biff or BBO. A smoke goes very well with a drink of booze y'know.

BBO let me toast your success so far! You are an inspiration to us all!

Thank you Earl Hood, you are a true sport. You mention toasts. Given that I am currently an abstainer, might I seek your advice as to the proper libation when toasting Her Majesty at the club?

The taste of wine is so hard to get out of the system.

Brushing my teeth with it hasnt worked.

BBO my understanding is that royal protocol says that one can toast Her Majesty with any alcoholic or non alcoholic libation except a cocktail drink and it is not good form to smoke either. So you will be free to make a royal toast with say ginger ale if you like this month!

As for me I will again celebrate your continued abstinence with a hearty Heathcote Shiraz, all of them I will dedicate to your honour this very night.

You need to brush up on your protocol, Earl. One may only smoke or remove one's jacket after the toast to the Queen ...

Where are you Jizz? Not sneaking a puff behind the milking shed I hope!!

I've changed my beverage of choice to Bickfords diet lime and soda - still appalling.

A further sad irony is that two of my usual wine suppliers rang last night with special deals. The gasp at the other end of the line when I told them I was participating in Febfast did at least give me a laugh

Unlike South American farmers,im working,Tried washing my hair in the red wine and its chit.So im sticking to guzzling it by the bucket load.Even cooked using the said wine last night and tonight.

Anybody looking for Biff wont find him,he's down here helping me milk cows and drinking wine of all sorts.

Would swap this camel's pi55 for a ciggie anyday,but desperately want to beat BBO in the monthly abstinance competition.

If anybody has idea's of what other wines i can taste over the next 27 days please pass on suggestion's.

Despite your snide shot about the Romsey show I'll try it dc. How do you serve this stuff?

It's not only available in Borewood is it ?

nothing snide about it bbo. i was just being protective of local culture. would hate to see it get blatantly commercialised by the like of the afl

not just burwood old chap but you would probably need to travel to the nearest spot of civilisation in order to purchase said beverages

Again BBO I stand in awe of your self control and salute you as I drink to the honorable Cardinal Puff for the third time!

To take the palate away from ethanol cravings, I can recommend some of the flavoured green teas which I found in the Colesworth recently. Never been a tea fan (of any sort) in my life until now. Helps get through the odd AFDs, though doubt they could sustain me for a week, let alone a month.

Latest ones I found are Mandarin Orange, and Passion Raspberry.

Haven't managed to find a banana one yet!

Sorry, I forgot Jizz, the purveyors of fine wine that I patronise frown on customers arriving in gumboots.

BTW. I was having a post dinner cordial with a friend last night while he was sucking joyously on a ciggy. It's really that after dinner smoke that is most enjoyable - almost sensuous. You understand I'm sure Jizz.

    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

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
