Have a great trip, Earl. It seems a bit ironic to have a bastion of the upper class such as yourself chosen to lead negotiation with the glorious revolutionaries, but I guess that should show them what they are missing. Just don't bring back too many cigars to pass around in the Long Room over port ... :):lol:

    Today and 3 more to the Rookie Draft.

    Happy Draft Day guys!

    Got to laugh. Publicity about Stevie J finishing 3rd in a 3km time trial up at the Giants....for the older players....lol. There's a field of 5 or so.

    I have had a sobering 36 hours an old friend died Sunday night and all of a sudden who the MFC picked in the draft seemed of little consequence.

    However for the living life goes on.

    I decided this morning it is now more important to chose well Mr. Taylor.

    I need a big improvement from the Dees over the next four years.

    We need to be a power by 2020.

    Agree Mr Leg but there have been a number of years in the last decade that the real world was a handy distraction from the Footy.

    Not however 2016 we are all going to enjoy our ten wins heading to the finals in 2017.

    Go Dees

    wonder why it is so quiet here

    place seems deserted

    Yes dc after all the discussion over the last 6 weeks it is all over.

    The FD obviously has a big opinion of Oliver we traded away next years first pick to ensure we got him.

    Still next years first pick will be around 16 so no big loss I guess.

    OD. You are either - (1) an imposter, as dc suggests. (2) On drugs (3) Drinking free Pinot at your sister's winery. Which will [censored] me off grandly as, apparently, Australia Post failed to deliver my invite,

    Dc and Bbo I predicted at this time last year we still had a poor list and would win 6-8 games in 2015 but with more changes at the end of the year we would be well placed for 2016.

    Staying with statement 2016 is the start of big years for the Dees.

    As for the Pinot Bbo I told you all gone and there will be no 2015 vintage ( bloody Wasps ) even I cannot get a bottle now.

    How about we arrange to sit in a group for our next final, whenever that is? Then we will be able to laugh about all those bad years (2013, 2012, 2009, 2008, I'll stop there :) )

    Yeah, we could be like those 2 old blokes in the theatre box seat at the Muppett Show, blankets over the legs, teeth falling out when we yell out "well played, number nine".

    I was thinking more like yelling "Take that curse of Norm Smith!" when Weideman kicks the winning goal after the siren in the GF ...

    Ok.

    What not a countdown till the first game of 2016?

    OD you should not talk about such things at this time of the season because our team remains undefeated and we still have hope.

    Sad thing is I was there at our last finals game back in 2006.

    The wheel is turning DF 10 wins this year followed by 16 in 2017 and a finals appearance.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
