    The difference I think is between the ears R and B

    I think they have that in spades pity their actually a ability is a bit less.

    On the other hand our ability between the ears is Fairy Floss.

    He may not be fat (depending upon your definition), but fl oggling himself is certainly a daily ritual, it would appear. His missus has protest far and wide to no avail. Poor woman. A burden she must endure.

    We have a day out two or three times a year the rest is crap.

    On top of that Geelong are nothing much in 2015 they are on the slide. Most teams seem to be able to beat them these days. With every passing week our victory down there looks less wonderful.

    Maybe so. I guess it will come as no surprise to you that I focus on the part of the glass that has water in it. Maybe it is only about 20% full at the moment, but that is where I choose to look.

    More flat over this loss than the Saints one.

    Sounds like you need banana cake or a banana smoothie (or both?)

    half of half a glass. i love it, such beautiful proportionality

    it's also 1/4 and 4 is a motzkin number and the first positive non-fibonacci number as well as being an all-harshad number and a semi-meandric number

    there was also four noble truths, four earthly elements, four heavenly kings and four stages of enlightenment

    unfortunately 4 is also the chinese homonym for death

    25% also means we should win 5 or 6 games his year and i thunk you might be on the money

    • NON-MFC: Round 12

      Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
