    I'd like to throw open the Romsey Manor for the upcoming shindig.As I am yet to hear any objections from uncle Bitty,I expect him ready at the door with canapés ..Moonie has agreed to be designated driver including a stop in Elsternwick for our more learned legal types who are usually inebriated by mid-morn.

    I'll have to take them one at a time Biff. My deadly treadly has but one rear rack to tie them onto. Speaking of 'tying one on' I fear the more senior members of this dining party may get out of control and trash poor Bitter's mansion. I do hope he hides his cask wine collection before they arrive

    Counting by months is not a countdown. 

    I suspect Mr. Leg has lost interest.

    I have heard a remour that he has secretly taken out membership with GWS.

    Story goes he misses his little mate with the unspeakable name and like him has given up on the Dees.

    That could be a little embarrassing bb.

    He is not a bad bloke just a little depressed let's give him the benefit of doubt until proven guilty. After all he might take out an injunction to stop the meeting.

    People make bad life choices all the time OD, but never lower your standards. NO GWS Members allowed!

    Your either Red and Blue or your nothing.

    Go the Dees/Cardies !

    It is now a long time ago but what is wrong with the last venue. Date?

    The Thai place. Reputation for being on the cheap side so if we want to attract classy people to the feast like BBO, Biffen and your good self OD, we have to take that step up and provide a classier venue.

    Now that the Gat's been sold and all but forgotten, I don't suppose it's once sumptuous dining facilities are available?

    Me? I am feeling good about 2018.

    So much so, I am thinking of watching my second AFL match at the MCG.

    It is Red that we all should be concerned about. NO PROPER COUNTDOWN! What is this DL coming to?

    I detect a theme here Mr Jack. The better our results the better the venue gets. So will  the  2018 get together be at the Flower Drum?

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
