Yes this is a part of the season we can be involved in, the off season, as we don't ever seem to be involved in that part that has the finals.

Well tomorrow morning is day 1 of the best time of the year for a Dees supporter.

The pre season is upon us.

What champions will we trade in?

What Future GF winning Champions will we draft in?

Who will be our major sponsor for 2016?

Will the members be our big problem again in 2016?

These and other intriguing questions will be answered over the next 10 weeks.

God I am excited!

Wow OD. You are going off the scale! New blood pressure medication working I hope??

But I'm with you on this being the best time of year for us for over a decade now.

Take care and don't take too many of those little blue pills at once. Think of Mrs OD (hope that's an OK subject) - she might want the 'off' season to be 'on' for quite a while yet.

That's how it was first developed DC - as a treatment for hypertension. But a notable 'side effect' in the initial trials led to it being investigated for erecrile dysfunction. From then on it rocketed away, so to speak.

Well here we are girls and boys welcome to the bright MFC future!

bjDee Mrs OD is fine do not concern yourself although she does barrack for the Pies.

Burn was started mid last week. Ref: ABC reporter that lives in the area.

You are both wrong. BBO was spit roasting one of the lads yesterday and things got out of control. In his drunken Shiraz stupor he forgot to slaughter the poor beast before shoving the rotisserie up its clacker and throwing it on the roaring fire. Of course, the beast panicked and ran off into the local forest with its coat ablaze. The rest, as they say, is history.

Sounds more plausible to me than this fuel reduction burn gone wrong story.

Headline from tomorrow's Romsey Reporter:

"Alpaca's clacker cracker sees local bush wackers knackered".

I wonder if one of the lads has been named Petracca? That would work nicely.

odd spot

just listening on radio to a report on the state of the bushfires. reporter name was alicia burns.

Is Amy Parks still reporting?

Posted (edited)

burn back was started on sunday. ref ch9 news and interview with officials

Typical media, half lies half made up on the spot.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-10-06/home-destroyed-properties-still-under-threat-from-vic-bushfire/6831052

Peter Rau, State response controller

She said she was "angry" it escaped the controlled burn-off.

"Very angry, yes. Very angry. It's been going since Wednesday or Thursday last week, it took off on Saturday again.

"[The] CFA had to come and put it out and this [Tuesday] morning it just flared up again...it was just too late. And the wind was just horrendous."

True Red. Only problem I see with such a cunning plan is that the ones with poor disposal usually have good work ethic, and the ones (one?) with bad work ethic have good disposal.

We might need to watch a few more episodes of Blackadder to come up with a more cunning plan. Something that "Is as cunning as a fox what used to be Professor of Cunning at Oxford University but has moved on and is now working for the U.N. at the High Commission of International Cunning Planning".

So cunning you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel?

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
