Next, Shorten. Remember that time the old scallywag knocked up one of his staffers, while he was married. I should have become a politician. Even the ugly, nerdy ones get a heap of action.

Now that is controversial.

    An old country preacher has a teenage son, and as it is gittin’ time for him to choose a profession, the old man decides to try an experiment. While he’s at school, he goes into his room and places on the bed, a bible, a $20 note, a bottle of whiskey, a copy of Penthouse.   “I'll just hide behind the door and see which object he picks up. If it's the Bible, he's going to be a preacher like me. If he picks up the dollar, he's going to be a businessman. But if he picks up the bottle, he's going to be a no-good drunken bum! And worst of all, if he picks up the magazine, he'll be a womaniser all his life!". The old man waits anxiously, and soon hears his son's footsteps as he enters the house and heads for his room. The boy throws his bag by the door, and as he turns to leave the room spots the objects on the be bed. First, he picks up the Bible and without reading a word places it under his arm. Then he picks up the $20 note and tucks it quickly into his his pocket, before uncorking the bottle to have a massive swig . . . even while settling down to ogle the magazine’s centerfold.
    “Lord have mercy,” the old preacher disgustedly whispers, “He's gonna run for Parliament, and will probably end up leading the Nats!"

    Can you explain that one please Moonshadow.

    Is it a moral tale?

    What some clubs have is that superstar like Danger, Selwood, Dusty and Pendles who can drag a team over the line. I know they are few and hard to find. We have developed a very good list and it would be even better if say Trac or Jack V could elevate their game to that level.

    I know a champion team will always beat a team of champions or so they say, but it wouldn't hurt if we could develop/ find one or two. 

    Max is probably our best at the moment and most valuable player.

    Not sure I agree with your last line Mr. leg.

    He did not show that in 2017.

    Also in today's AFL I am not sure a Ruckman can be that sort of player.

    I think T Mac has the potential. He did it in that game in WA against the Eagles.

    The wife and kid are away tonight and I haven’t had takeaway for months. I’m thinking of going a little stupid on Uber eats, any suggestions? 

    Early nominations are a McDonalds family dinner box followed by Churros for two from San Churros. The Churros come with sliced banana which is a bonus.

    Oh you are a wild one Ethan!

    I would've gone a rare beef phò from the local, or perhaps a little hipster veg curry, extra pappadams 

    BBO might have ordered wild game caught withing the expansive grounds of the manor

    Biffen would invade the local KFC going from table to table looking for fly blown leftovers

    The Earl would Uber fish and chips from Donovans in Sydney, even though he's in Upper Fitzroy

    W Jack and Red would pick up take away from Wongs, because this new fangled thing called Uber eats is beyond them

    Daisy would eat leftover pureed meat and 3 veg from the Borewood nursing home

    It was sliced well. It cut through the 16 sticks of Churros quite nicely.

    Clever Moon.  Wondering if this was a re-hashed lampoon.  An old Labor leader / PM comes to mind also ?

    Nice work Moonie, but you left out Old Dee and Beelzebub fighting over the last banana fritter ... :D And jazza, bless his memory, would have an inch-thick steak with produce grown on his own farm.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • 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.
