    I was telling one of my kids that when I was a kid in the 70’s the ‘outflow’ from the urinals at Victoria Park used to run out onto the street and then down the drain. My question to anyone old enough is did this actually happen or have I made this up in my head?

    It seems so far away from football conditions today

    (And sorry I didn’t know where else to ask this question)

    Most likely true. I recall the Bombers toilet on the outer was often flooded and you went against the back wall. That was real footy back then, both on and off the field.

    When I was team manager of the Dees, I was warned not to loiter in the race at Vic Park, as I would be covered with cups of urine, if not just copping a spit or two. Lovely people at that ground.

    FMD.   Must be for his fielding!

    Why not Siddle,  he would make  more with the bat and take more wickets.

    not many filth games played in the 90s, moonie. Don't think i went there at that time. council lost patience with the filth with the urinals constantly flooding the railway lines.

    Siddle In also.   Now only a county bowler

    Why put a side in when you leave attacking bowlers - starc Pattinson - out ?

    And then win the toss and send them in! What was the old saying win the toss, think about sending them in, then bat always!

    1 for 86 at lunch great decision to send them in then. The talk was that the wicket would be good so why send them in? Up against it now but thankfully Mitch Marsh is there.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
