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!

Wait until we are 4-0 OD ... :blink:

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

    Zero Bbo

    But some nice heathcote red at my sisters on Saturday night.

    Shiraz from Heathcote is usually top class. Hope you downed some of your sister's pinot.

    Interesting Bbo their entire grop of grapes this year was destroyed by European wasps so no 2015 vintage.

    But the 2014 is coming along nicely in the barrels.

    And yes we did crack a couple of 2013.

    I hope JV plays on number 9 if he gets a game. A couple of those smashes into the ground would go down well.

    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.

    Agree Redleg. Momentum would be good for this group.

    WOW that is disturbing news

    We are coming off bumper crops of magnificent grapes in all the North East.

    The concern is what to do with the the large quantity of last years not so good which were kept after a few years of small yields of excellent quality. Price points are being put into interesting perspective.

    The euro wasps have been bad but I havent heard they affected the harvest.

    My sister grows only Pino and they seem to like it best. She also has some table grapes mixed in and as yet they have not touched them.

    When i was there on Sunday the vines are just a mass of wasps. My brother in law has destroyed 23 nests in their area I have never seen anything like it.

    Hanging rock winery is right next door, they have lost a lot of Pino but only small damage to other varieties.

    It is hard to believe but they suck the juice right out the grape.

    Leaves the empty skins in bunches on the vine.

    Thanks for the news OD will share with the NE vignerons I know.

    There are some winemakers here with close contacts in other areas so it will be an interesting comparison point.

    I hope the little bast ards don't like shiraz!!

    Cold weather today would have done a lot of them in Bbo.

    Cold weather is their Achilles heel.

    These bloody imported wasps! All our best produce goes to the overseas market. The Mad Monk should get on top of it now! It's a disgrace. Pass me another single malt please lass......

    Blddy Euro wasps. I might have to switch over to boutique beers. The Byron Brewery does a nice tasting platter of 6 for $18.

    Hope the German wasps among them don't start going after hops as well.

    They must come from Mediterrean regions them. Likely the Mafia is behind it all.

    Achilles heel? They must be Greek. Never trust the Greeks.

    Sorry Daisy and Biff. Looks like the blue rinse brigade has lost the club to an entirely new demographic. All we can do is sit back and wince or hope that we continue to win and that will scare them off. (For the record, I like Chet Faker's music).

    just temporarily, just long enough to rid the country of hipsters

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
