I think we need to get this thread back on to the footy, so let me pose the following question.

Which is greener, real grass or Astro turf?

At the risk of steering this thread back to the original question; Astro turf also comes in blue, which grass does not (unless painted) but that's a whole different question.

Has anyone noticed the ridiculous headlines that sub editors are placing on innocuous events.

Example: De Minaurs’ brutal girlfriend moment. 
Picture and story: she hugged him after his loss last night.

Its happening frequently and headlines have no relevance to actual events.

It's more than headlines Red!

Articles can be misleading, biased, unnecessarily emotive etc. etc.

The Hun was once a decent paper and The Rage was pretty good. Now The Hun make a good chip wrap or mulch while The Rage is only marginally better.

I am not going to spoil my chips by wrapping them in the Hun!

I realise this is a footy forum and not a chook forum but it’s off-season so I hope nobody minds. 

Besides, the four little bundles of feathery cuteness (below) are all named after current Dees players (my three fave players… plus Fritta 🙃) so this isn’t entirely off-topic. 

Footnote: I tragically lost my last clutch of bantams to a brazen fox who clearly didn’t get the memo re being nocturnal, nor that my backyard is in the middle of suburbia. So these lil guys are living in the house until they’re old enough to move into their outdoor accommodation… “Chook Manor” a nod to @Bitter but optimistic😁

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
