    It will be a tough ask for us, flying all the way across Australia to Hobart.

    I see your John McEnroe thread disappeared picket. Gave me a hearty laugh. No one can accuse you of not being passionate!

    What has grasping his joystick got to do with flying?

    Due to our players being subjected to such a southern latitude at this time of year,they suffered a decrease of the full light spectrum required by the hypothalamus to regulate the endocrine and autonomic nervous systems.

    Now there is a fair excuse. Would playing in ugg boots offset that?

    Overseas travel is taxing, isn't it?

    All that medical stuff above is appropriate. I'm still sans desert boots and the old in between toes fungal infection is playing up again. FMD, I try to lead a moral life but circumstances ... and events ... continually conspire to [censored] me up.

    And .. as if matters could get worse my GP is pressuring me to undergo a rather ... err ..invasive shall we say test ...

    FMD - It's enough to drive me to drink.

    I believe you wouldn't be so bold as to make a veiled reference to what I heard referred to on that television program of high culture -RBT - as the sacred herb, would you Mr Leg?

    Mr Leg I am very worried about you.

    Your cynicism is beginnning to tell a sad story.

    I have look to you through a lot of bad times for encouragement.

    This seems sadly missing in 2016.

    Please dont tell me you are about to leave the fold.

    I could not go on without you.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
