Sorry about that, Chief. 'Obtuse' is becoming my middle name?

Commodore = @Redleg(refer my earlier (obtuse) posts)

I was proposing he dreamt his encounter with S.Freud.

S.Freud wrote on the interpretation of dreams.

I was proposing that, in wading through this thread, you would have earned a doctorate in the advanced psychology you suggested was needed to do so.

I thus threw it to you to interpret Redleg's dream.

See, that wasn't so hard!😉

Was it?😮

I was actually thinking that’s what it might mean. Except that I wasn’t. 🤥 
As for interpreting @Redleg’s dream, if his dreams are even remotely like his comments in this thread then that’d be a solid No Thanks!

    if you've read the da vinci code you might be able to unravel this thread

    I have been ripping up the floor of my tiled back room since the thread started, looking for the long lost  key to winning the flag. I stopped after the GF and have started retiling the floor. Who needs the “key” anymore?

    Now back to the footy.

    What are the predictions for new players to play their first MFC game this year?

    I think we can treat Dunstan as a given.

    I will start it off with Laurie.

    Define ‘OK’  
    Just because I appear to be alive and well, doesn’t necessarily mean I’m not mentally scarred beyond reparation. 🤪

    I’m only up to page 33 and the bananas discussion has only just taken off. But I tell you what, Tim… this thread should be made compulsory reading for students of advanced psychiatry. Seriously. 

    I am pleased to see your studies are continuing WCW. However, to save you some time, I have a suggestion.

    Instead of reading the entire 1000 + pages, simply focus on my modest offerings. They are scholarly, socially inclusive and tasteful. I am certain you will be a different person for the experience.

    I liked BBOs admission theat his offerings weren "modest".

    "and he has much to be modest about" springs to mind.

    I simply shall say, in all modesty, " That a great man is always willing to be little".

    Quite likely all of them courtesy of Omicron.

    Didn’t know where to post this, figured here’s as good as anywhere else. 
    Are we all watching Ash Barty’s AO final atm? Her opponent, American Danielle Collins, has not only an Australian connection, but an MFC connection. Her coach-turned-boyfriend, Tom Couch (son of Geelong great, Paul Couch) played three games for Melbourne in, I think, 2012. 
    Yeah nah, ignore that. Seems there’s confusion as to who her boyfriend is. Some think it’s Tom Couch, some think it’s an American model. Anyways, as you were.

    On the OFF topic above.

    I know little of womens tennis but I did follow it the last couple of years due to the edifying and uplifting influence of gambling.

    Needless to say ,I had a Multi  Motza going in to Danielle to win her match but despite her position as red hot favouriote she lost to a short,powerful Russian and looked overweight during the process. I dubbed her the Collins Class Submarinbe after that effort but now i'm aware she was carrying a severe illness so she shall be forgiven.

    As shall that wimpy little Australian swimmer that broke every sprint swimming record in the year leading up to the Olympics before he decided to choke and cost me a small fortune in another multi.

    Forgive and forget I always say.Or forgive at the very least.

    What a despicable fellow you are Biffen!

    Your weakness for sins of the flesh is well documented and your predilection for substance abuse is infamous.

    Now you add gaming! You choose to ignore the wonderful spirit of jingoism that surrounds the tennis in favour of your venal needs!

    Disgraceful!

    After all my years of valuable and profound intellectual contributions to this thread you still misrepresent my tastes in vino.

    I hereby declare and  caste aside all doubts, Chateau Cardboard has no place in The Manor's fine collection of plonk.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
