You'd reckon Rupe would be ordering Viagra by the Pallet.

Another solid business opportunity for you BBO.  

Or why not a Essendon FC drug cheat Councillor?

    We could talk about how many games the MFC could win in 2016?

    OD has predicted 10 wins but will not divulge which games they will be.

    After reviewing the fixtures I can only feel certain about 5 wins but predict 8 wins for the season. As the MFC still has a very ordinary players list and is unable to win two or more games in a row.

    I don't agree DF the list is now better than " very ordinary" it has improved substantially  over 2015 and we will win 10 games.

    I'd be happy if you underestimated by 20%, which would put us into the finals.

    Always a pleasure to hear from my old mate Fl  og, however, i wish to make it clear that I do not intend standing for Local Government.

     

     

       

    "Sordid and cynical" on Demonland Bbo surly you are mistaken!

    I take your point OD - it's just that I like to think that I can do "sordid" better than anyone.

    I am afraid you have lost me with this comment OD, as the MFC could not even beat a depleted Drugs Lord team in 2015 and I am not going to comment about the 2 x St Kilda or Carlton losses.I can not even remember when the MFC last won two or more games in a row?

    Although my hart wants to agree with your estimate OD I am afraid my head is still telling me we still have a very ordinary team in 2016.

    However I would be more than delighted to be proven wrong with my prediction.

    There is a "tell all' article in today's Age featuring our very own Dr. John Dee. That fact that our good Doctor is famous for being an alchemist and conjurer explains much. I have cancelled my planned visit to Hopping Dick's Creek.

    I can't recall writing that, Uncle Bitters. We charlatans and mountebanks lead busy lives and usually rely on remembering all the lies facts we disclose. I must be slipping.

    Does the intention to cancel your visit (I would have hoped merely for a postponement) mean that I should return the manacles and associated accoutrements to the local boutique de plaisir?

    I do have some reputation for conjuring up spirits, I must admit, but this is the first time some damn'd ghost has tried to conjure me.

    You are far too modest in detailing your excesses achievements Dr. Perhaps some of your err.. shall we say libertine  accomplishments could be expounded upon. I believe you were a pioneer of the practice of being, how shall I put it delicately, "generous" with your spouse? Which I suppose explains why you do not have the time to burn effigies etc on New Years Eve.

    As to my visit - obviously much will depend upon your explanation re the above. Also, I note your generosity but I prefer to bring my own apparatus when visiting.

    This morning saw a banana and peanut butter smoothie on the menu at a cafe. Didn't have the guts to try it.

    • 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.
