Is OD dead or alive ? Does anyone know? Last I heard he was slurping free pinos at his sister's winery. Which BTW, is not exactly a world away from Romsey Manor, and to which free grog function, no invite was issued.

    btw, earl, i've never seen a 6" floppy, assuming you are referring to diskettes

    would that be a cut-down 8" one?

    I am not one to exaggerate as you know DC but yes I had an 8" floppy in earlier days but these days I am working with a 5.25"more often than not!

    Could be worse Earl - the USB awaits!

    So my elderly father is absolutely convinced there's a conspiracy between the big supermarket chains in Australia to genetically modify bananas for thicker skins in order to shortchange consumers on their potassium intake per average purchase. What's this thread about?

    Still in recovery mode after our breaking of the 10 year hoodoo at the Cattery. Probably sipping more than a pinot or 2!

    I am not supposed to eat too many Skuit so that suits me down to the ground.

    Very much alive Bbo

    Had a busy weekend and with no MFC game there was little to comment on.

    As to your invitation to sample the Pinot I can only assume it got lost in the mail.

    Pleased to hear you're still sucking in O2 as well as Pinot OD. I must say Australia post has let me down an unusual number of times.

    So he's on to us!? Our security has failed. Or maybe we have a mole... I can see I'm going to have to call Obama again to get this sorted. Thanks for the intelligence. To the red phone!

    Well they are going bad Bbo.

    I suppose I could email you next time that seems to be the root cause of their difficulties.

    Anybody would think Auspost is run by a bunch of backward readers or something.

    And I thought BBO still used courier pigeons to send his mail.

    Well done lad you have entered the 19th century.

    Old Dee - this is probably the most serious and tongue out of cheek question I'll ever ask on D'land. Beside the idea that their consumption attracts pernicious blood-sucking malaria-bearing parasites, what's the issue with eating too many bananas? Is your GP aligned with Woolies and Coles?

    Did you forget how to play solitaire?

    Was the meat a little too chewy?

    Give us something OD,

    you can't be expected to be invited out socially unless you dress, speak and behave as if you have something to say.

    The pension may have to be scrapped entirely if you refuse to even communicate with the workforce.(alleged)

    Hmm. Hyperkalemia. With some of real-world lifestyles suggested on here we should all be more aware. Time to cut back on the lady-fingers a little bit I think.

    I hope you effers spare a thought for poor old Uncle Bitter. Due to a combination of unfortunate circumstances (one of which was the failure of Biffen's illegal immigrant labour hire service to come through) I had to drag myself from the sick bed and carry out an honest day's manual labour.

    Actually made me spare a thought for the poor beggars who have to do it all the time. ......... Hang on ...... did I just feel ....compassion?

    • 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.
