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!

That is reserved for the native Canadian wildlife we refer to as a moose.

Heard Eric Bana state that he was one of the few not to have witnessed a Saints flag and would place it above winning and oscar. It was a lovely gesture of support from him and filled me with admiration but  there are plenty of us that have had our lifes scarred through our demon allegiance. While I am qualifying for a pension this year I have not been able to appreciate the glory of attending a premiership victory.

Our glory years were when I was a child in the country and had to play out our victorious moments on the front lawn listening to the radio. I will always remember Bluey Adams, Barass, Lord, etc from that time, while equally and probably better skilled players are wallowing without that pinnacle of achievment

I have been to more grand finals of other teams than I have Melbourne and frankly am getting sick and tired of being an irrelevancy. I hope that our current group can develop  a more sustainable model. Perhaps they need to be reminded of how many Eric Bana's we have.

 

I know that does lead itself into some inexusable banana repartee but go for it

Your pension admission also qualifies you for a position, dp, in the geriatricity ladder I'll be putting together once 20,000 has been passed. And quite a high one at the moment, too!

Nah, she sings to many songs in French for my liking Maple. French is the language of peasants.

Never knew they could speak French.

Good to see we all haven't lost touch with the MFCSS.

The meltdown and theorists are rampant upon other threads :rolleyes:

And some suggest we talk nonsense in here  :huh:

 

For all you music lovers ..., but necessarily of Canadian Crooners.....

I present 

 

As it happened they were here in OZ last  Oct..... Bloody Brilliant night... can they sing.....wow

 

ENJOY !!!

Correct bb it seems that we are now seeing reds under every bed. We have the best list in a decade and still people see a negative in every situation.


Earlier this year , before and during the NAB there was much conjecture , harrowing and MFCSS-ing , obsessing , no/yessing about what may or may never occur.

e thought ( some of us) bring on the Footy season and something of substance to grasp a hold of. Something we can talk about that was real, as it was happening afore us.

It IS the season proper and there's still just as much worrying about the peripheral or non existent as ever.

Who was it  ....  The more things change the more they stay the same :rolleyes:

Your posts normally suggest that you are an intelligent, thoughtful, and personable chap. Have you taken leave of your senses?

French is derived from Roman times and Latin as you know, similar to other languages such as Spanish and Italian. French is the language of love good man. It is also the language of diplomacy, science, literature and philosophy. Peasants do not speak French. They speak dialect or indeed speak in few words. Similar to the peasants here particularly those that gather in tribes to watch the Tigers and the Magpies or in SA, Port Adelaide. We also have a few here on Demonland, but who will not be named as we know who they are. Also I value my neck given the importance of the mind body connection. Although, I have to say there are a lot of headless people in these illiterate times of Kali Yuga. For those wanting to find out about Kali Yuga consult Google. The French along with the Indians know all about Kali Yuga. However, I am getting distracted from the main point of my post.   

I will be reporting your outrageous and frankly obscene comments to the Academie Francaise. I hope you are not planning a trip to France anytime soon. 

If I was planning to make love to a beautiful woman, I would want her to whisper sweet nothings in French. Remember Francois Hardy "only you can do it". Yes I know that is English. But lost in translation of course, for the French words are beautiful....que vous pouvez le faire...... and the grunts even better! Knee trembling stuff Moon. 

I suggest you go to Alliance Francaise and then we can converse in French just to raise the tone of posts on this site. 

By Jingoes. 8 more posts until 20,000. Let's break out the banana's. 

Redleg, you still happy with the thread title? When JH signs, can we re-name it?

As yes, French is a sophisticated language. However, I do not enjoy it in a Celine Dion song.

French is a lousy language according to George Bush, who famously said, " the problem with the French is that they don't have a word for entrepreneur."

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
