A gentleman never tells Moon.

But they were advertised as something else.

A not so wise Asian lady once told me to be careful over there.

" They'll show you a pig and sell you a dog" 

I"Ve bought a few of each I suppose so it evens out.

Had lunch with Biffen today. It's apparently good for the soul to mix with people from the more dubious social strata.

Anyway Biffen chose the location and again it was a dingy little inn in some god forsaken backwater. Well the food!!

It came either drowned in tomato sauce or needed to be, to mask the underlying "taste"

Biffen, to demonstrate the sophistication gained from his recent Asian jaunt, created a scene. He demanded sweet chilli sauce Not only that but it had to be "Kan tong" or some such because that is "orthentic"

FMD ! How humiliating!

I thought it was unnecessary giving someone from Romsey a knife and fork but I was proud of the way you muddled through and tied not to make a mess.

If your hygiene continues to show improvement we may be able to take you somewhere civilised people eat and drink,as long as you promise to keep the food in your area.

Alrhough most of your lunch ended up in your overalls,you at least managed not to sexually harass the staff.

I think the Smith Curse is still with us. 

Has any other club lost their most important player? Does any other club have the injury list we have? We lose a game we dominate with poor kicking while the other side can't miss. Similar the next week where we lose by a couple of points after leading with 2 minutes to go and gifting the last goal. Our players get the heaviest suspensions which cost one or both games lost. Ollie continues to dominate. Our so called stars are not starring. Injured players play against us and dominate. Gus injured again.

Etc.

Ok, but I am partial to those brown crackers with the raisins/sultanas. Also no Brazil nuts as not my taste.

Well you know bananas and cheese crackers come from the same supermarket.

What is this football related rant doing on this thread? Where are the moderators? 

However it is a fair comment, but my reply is we have reverted to our normal state over the past 20 years. Last year was an anomaly for so few injuries, our norm for as long as I can remember is 10 to 12 on the injury list with 4 or 5 of those being in the best 24. That is our lot I am afraid, unlike the Dorks, the Cats over the past 10 years. 

Life often throws up a curve ball...

flies a bit like a banana.,..

Peel with it !

I take it back Red. You have a good point.

Sounds a bit like doggies last year.

They kept plugging away got stronger and found a way to win.

We had so many good players but they were exhausted in the last, fumbles, lack of run poor decisions.

some of the poorer performers need to have a good hard look and lift or go back to Casey. Hogan perhaps performs better around the ground where he certainly creates a contest.While he is great one on one he can't match double and triple teams

Pedo Bugg Trengove all have experience at AFL level and could step in and up.

i reckon Jack Watts is showing his class, others should lift just through his presence.

We just have to look really hard at the Dons and beat them next week.

Well, the Smith curse bit might be right. Joel Smith gets a serious injury 15 minutes into his AFL debut, and Tim Smith gets a bad knee 1.5 matches into his career. All we need now is a banana shortage, and we can conclude we are cursed ... :)

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
