Gnasher would be statistician and web site guru, useless position 

BBO would be the FF in the mould (sic) of Mark Jackson, always looking good but ultimately with little to show for it

Earl would be team manager, spending the profits down the local TAB, if there were any. or transferring into bitcoin

Old Dee would be chairman of the board, when he's awake and not slurping pureed food on a plastic tray

Dieter.... well, he'd be the guy with linament on his hands at the ready that no player agrees upon to be worked over

Hemmingway the media scribe, a man's got to make a living some how

Picket fence the deranged fan with the orange complexion and comb over you avoid at all costs

Demonland would be B&F for sure, only because I have a bazillion warning points.

Have I missed anyone?

Very unfunny Biffen ………………………………. and the rest of you cheap mockers. All of you seem burdened by poor taste.

 

I must add that while I obviously do not have a trough, I did commission a very elegant chamber pot. It has a delightful (and  quite practical) gilt edge.

The downside is that the maid demands extra remuneration to evacuate it.

How many litres of wine does your chamber pot hold? I would have thought a nice new large goblet would have been sufficient. No wonder there is a drought on.You should be ashamed.

Give me a break doc - you ever tried [censored] into a goblet!

I'd like to think I could join the illustrious company as wing man.

Running back and forward with no apparent value but an annoyance to some and able to lob a comment as devils advocate .

But mainly observing as the talent surrounding me accomplished feats of bewildering esoteric brilliance .Always ready with a supportive gesture to link the seemingly innocuous into a higher realm. But really just wondering where does this disparate group of geniuses live and what attracted them to this field beyond their passion for red and blue.

Maybe that's why I'm not even on the bench?

Forgive me Bbo, I thought you had ordered a chamber pot to swill from seeing you haven't got a trough.

Ok I won't post here again suggesting I could  be in such esteemed company.

Just give me back the regular eclectic content that made this the best thread on the site.

I have been suffering from a groin injury and had so much time on my hands that I have been on Dland more than usual. Only now starting active rehab. I have a new and greater appreciation of that injury and its  impact on activity.

Have been considering creating a comedy routine around the injury as mention of it usually results in ,"nudge, ,nudge, wink, wink," type comments and instant laughter. Of course that's only from people who have never experienced one. Any fellow sufferers immediately offer "oh that's painful, that hurts" response. I will be cutting the players a bit more slack when it's reported 4-6 knowing it could be 10-12.

Thanks K. Have been criticised for the emphasis on rest but it's the only solution. I did not realise that the groin muscle is the centre of every physical action . Have been spreading the message, look after the groin, make sure you stretch and prepare before putting it under load. As I said this comment also always induces ribald comment perhaps suitable for comedic presentation.

Two questions red.

What price?

And is the price overs, unders or a true reflection of rouges points chances?

(Cool name btw).

One more question. Is the derby a group race?

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
