5-3 and back to the G to play the super confident Blues, hopefully without their main tagger and umpire toucher Ed Curnow.

The worry is that we will be hot favourites.

    Plus Melbourne does not do four wins in a row.

    The GODS have still not forgiven us for 1965.

    Big game this week. We have tended to play poorly against them for a few years even though they have been down the ladder.

    We need to play at our best all game and drive them into our turf.

    I don"t need to read this Frog.

    With our recent wins, I was just emerging from my MFC induced depression to some semblance of balanced mood state. 

    I was even planning to go on Sunday, with a feeling of quite optimism tempered by the ever present trepidation.

    However,""there is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in.""

    Red, apart from your good self and a few other stalwarts, the posts on this thread seem to have dropped off lately. 

    Many of the old characters with their peccadillo's seemed to have disappeared into the ether, with the result that the only thing to talk about is football.

    What's happened to all the chameleons, the perverts, the eccentrics, the boasters, the liars, the weirdos, the freaks, the nuts, the sad and lonely, the non conformists, the entrepreneurs, the drug peddlers, the pretenders, the psychotic, the delusional, the washed-up lawyers and academics and writers, the homeless, and the bizarre characters that used to come and go in the night on this thread. 

    I think I have covered everyone. Oops, I forgot the dead. 

    After 7 years, perhaps its time to close this thread.

    Let's face it, this is not a thread for mundane, boring or repetitious comments about football.

    Well, we will see if your suggestion brings the motley crew of characters back to life again and reinvigorates their posting.

    I think the razing of that salubrious gentlemen's retreat upon Fitzroy St has rattled some far deeper than originally anticipated.

    Ernest I am sorry I have been absent from this thread for some time but I have had other more pressing priorities such as a certain wedding this week! Do you think I have time for the minor tribulations of the underlings of this thread, BBO, Biffen, Moons and DC come to mind, when I have to deal with the real issues of readying myself for the Royal Wedding this Saturday. Priorities my man!

    Well DC let’s just say I have been approached about certain matters to do with the ceremony, me of course being well regarded in important circles, beyond reproach and of a respectable age, but let’s keep it at that for the moment lest the gutter press get hold of anything and do their damnest!

    Milo,  the entrepreneur that you are, I had forgotten about your role in The Wedding. Of course, the old Country and indeed the Royals do not have the budget they once had, which is where you no doubt fit in.  A quick visit to China, a lick of paint, and I'm sure the imitations look like the real thing!

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
