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!

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
