Yes, but at least the Dees are still the same ... :)

redleg is just paranoid some other countdown upstart might usurp him

before long we'll probably be days if not weeks ahead

I thought he was just getting into the spirit of trade week by trading for future countdowns ... :)

Just had a milkshake, the first in years. I had the choice of banana but chose espresso, something different. I feel so dirty and ashamed.

i think we should all switch to zulu time (utc) to avoid confusion

True. Or just leave the clucking focks where they are now (ie never turn them back in autumn).

I think you've been peeking at Redtube again RL!!

Have you been skyping me?

I am thinking of starting up my own site, red and bluetube.

Well you can get plenty of advice from your fellow dlanders.

For example dc would be an expert on Granny porn. Biffen's knowledge of depravity is encyclopeadiac. Earl Hood's upper class friend's have quite singular tastes but frequently end up hanging themselves - not for me.

Moonie would be enthusiastic but improbable. Sir WYL's frequent trips to the Philippines would have netted him some valuable insights and as for OD - he traveled to Bangkok for "work on his teeth" - enough said.

And .. to top it off .. the Snitch could be your first Gold Card customer.

It's all go RL!!

hey redleg, any chance you could also incorporate a cas countdown too?

a double countdown would a first for dl and enhance your reputation for trail blazing :)

Interesting experience yesterday I am keen basket ball follower and for many years I was a Tigers member.

When the Tigers became Melbourne United I lost a lot of interest in the NBL.

So after good results in the pre season competition and two from two wins in the season proper I decided to go last night.

The United won again and even at this stage look to be good chances to go all the way this season.

It was a good game but I found myself an on looker rather than being involved with the team.

I was purely an observer.

I just cannot get involved the way i used with the Tigers.

There is talk of the TIGERS returning in a few seasons time, that looks a pipe dream to me.

Also I am not sure how you barrack for the "United" !

I drove home thinking this game confirmed why I still follow AFL

My team is still there. If the Dees were to fold I would be an observer of AFL.

PS there was a very good crowd which just shows people will follow winnners even when they they have no history, have a god awful strip and no emblem as such.

Watched their first few games OD, they have some quality players, but I agree it's not the same as the Tigers. And they're vanilla in terms of brand. If the Dees folded, I doubt whether I would be a keen observer tbh. I definitely wouldn't follow any other team and I'd probably be on the lookout for some kind of interest - but nothing would come as close as the passion for the Dees.

Speaking of winning.

The trifecta will be from 2,10,17 and 6 .

Believe me,the punt has made me the man I am today.

At least you had Mongolian Khan Biff.

Fame Game for the Melb Cup, Biffen. Always throw in Red Cadeaux too. Value. Been thriving since arriving at Werribee and only knows how to run the 3200m.

Trip to Paris

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
