I'm not sure if this is what you meant Mr Leg, but I wasn't meaning to criticise the thread. It was just my ham-fisted way of pointing out the huge milestones that were approaching (and, I guess, the human nature that kicks in when milestone opportunities present themselves!) Nothing but respect (and fascination!) for the threadies here.

Not sure about that TRAB. The thread is 800 pages long and it's starting to become a little tiresome. Here we are 12 hours after our biggest win in yonks and not a single comment about such a glorious victory? Not even from Mr Leg. It makes me wonder ...

    Haha,last week at the Saints game I had my ipod in my pocket,on it is a recording of 'om chanting' so I put it on during the last quarter which kept me calm while the blood pressure of everyone else around me was peaking so it can be used for winning and losing.

    Just outside the 8 after 7 rounds. Win the Bombers and Roos games and we are near the top of the ladder. We need to find some consistency in performance, for the rest of the year.

    Are you sure you can handle it, OD?

    When I see a Chipmunk film I get a strong urge to hurt wildlife.

    Can I just say that "The Squeakal" is equally as disappointing and tedious as the first one.

    It's late on the Sunday of a GREAT and PROMISING win, and a very pleasantly celebrated Mothers Day meal, so indulge me, please. And I promise (having raised it) that I'm not jockeying for the 20,000th! But, if I may, can I take this wide-ranging thread off on yet another tangent for a while? I have oftened wondered, Old Dee, how 'Old' you actually are and, by extension, how old the oldest of us are (in stark contrast, by the way, to our youngest-of-them-all team!) So, I'll start: 61. I stand ready to be beaten, and significantly.

    I have you covered by six years Tim.

    Well done, you old devil! Once we (i.e. you all) pass 20,000, I'll come back and do a 'ladder'. Three qualifiers so far. Keep 'em coming!

    I am TRAB less 7.

    And surprised at the relative youth of OD. Couple of years ago would have sworn OD was at least a Septuagenarian. I think the Dees form has been OD's fountain of youth!

    Chimpunks are wonderfully entertaining native Canadian wildlife, Biffen.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • 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.
