yes i can vouch for that

although for a while i wondered if mandrake was practising his mass hypnosis

On the crowd? Or on the Suns? Ablett could make a case for that given his great set up of Garland for a goal ... :lol:

    On the way to the footy there was this very nasty demo going on in Fed Square. Some real meatheads in attendance ( and that includes the cops who were useless). I moved into the thick of it just to work out what was going on. Anyway a rat faced little tur d started abusing a lady who just wanted to get through. So I gave him some free advice about manners. His reply was a two fingered salute. I suggested he move away from the police to a different location and repeat the gesture.

    Weak bas tard wouldn't be in it!!

    You're game, BBO, and well done for the public education service. Was probably an Essendon supporter ... :)

    I thought I was watching a different team (and to a large extent, it was!). The best part was that they played as a team, and both Watts and H seemed to stress this in their post-match interviews.

    cheers to hardtack and son making the trip down from sydney town

    seeing two victories must have made it all worthwhile

    od, would like this. got on a bus after the game (train bus) and this middle aged geezer got up off his seat and offered it to me

    he must have thought i looked close to a hearter, which was probably true - lol

    or maybe he fancied me?

    We were rapt with the results DC. Camped most of the Casey game just near the sausage truck and enjoyed watching the game while chowing down... they really need a scoreboard though as at one point I was sure we were 3 goals down when we were actually 1 goal up!

    To then go over the footbridge to the Gee and see the way that game unfolded... heaven on a stick! In the Bradman (gate 5 entrance) just down toward the forward pocket so we had a close up view of the goals in the final quarter... I don't think I can ever recall seeing my son quite so animated... and I'm sure he'd be saying the same thing about me. Sat with a fellow D'land poster, the delightful Rob Mac and also popped in to say a quick hello to Pete (TDI) at the Memembership tent.

    All in all, a great day and a totally worthwhile trip to Melbourne...and what made it even better was the knowledge that it was pissing down with rain in Sydney while we were bathed in sunshine.

    Were the skinheads or the free love and mungbean types the instigators of the pushing .

    Hard to tell from the news reports.

    It looked like dopey flag wavers were being protected by the cops from the Fitzroy north millionaire hippies.

    Yes, unless the Suns were tanking ... :blink::blink:

    Off to the Gee to watch the Dorks vs Cats in the members. Not sure why I accepted the invitation and then found they all want to get there at 1.30, two hours before the game! I'll be pizzled before the first bounce. I could get evicted if I start abusing Clark when he takes a mark and then Frawley when he spoils Mitch and dont start me on Rivers. Things could turn ugly.

    I sat up near the Robbie Flower sign for the first three quarters, and then down into the dry area (left forward flank to the Punt Road end) for the last. Was almost level with Watts when he lined up for the set shot goal. It is a great spot when we are kicking to the Punt Road end and scoring, as you can hear the players calling (and the thump of the tackles). Up top definitely gives a better perspective of the overall play, and was a great place to watch Tyson's goal in the 2nd quarter unfold.

    I presume you have upgraded by now ... :)

    I actually didn't move. I liked the atmosphere there. Whether or not as many congregate there again remains to be seen.

    I could see that stuff happening in Fed Square 3 weeks ago. Signs were being put up in bus shelters by those who wish to force the socialist alternative on us urging us to come disrupt their rally and that 'we couldn't rely on the cops to protect us'. When I participated in the Palm Sunday march for refugees, I saw the Socialist Alternative handing out flyers again to disrupt it.

    Bloody sad really. Barely a non anglo in the crowd. Just a collection of the most self righteous knobs in our society.

    So are you saying they were all Jippo's?

    We do live in a free society,let them protest as much as they want.

    Couldnt sit in the wing on any given day myself,generally city end riverside for me.Away from the clowns and close to the exit.

    I get a good parking spot next to the river and a quick westgate bridge exit.

    To start I really enjoyed the win on Saturday.

    However I feel quite off hand about the MFC right now.

    I feel like oh good the club is getting going at last so they don't need me any more.

    The membership will probably take a big rise this week and when we win next weekend it will go up again.

    Next two weeks are interstate then Richmond at the G which will be the only game I can go to till the Hawks game ( OS for 3 weeks )

    This may be contributing but I feel quite detached at present strange!

    It's either too much single malt or .... more probably not enough OD.

    Need to build on that win. Have to roll GWS in Canberra. Need to win the games we have a chance to win. Best thing is for the players to gain belief.

    Usually this thread isn't where I get into my usual political rants but I will say I don't question the counter protestors rights but I do question their common sense and how genuine they are. Don't get me started on the mouth breathers on the other side.

    You shouldn't worry so much about quick escapes these days Jazza. The club will probably win more games this year and you are off the durries aren't ya?

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
