    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.

    My new Demon Chickens!

    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: 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.

    • 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.
