I was a massive Magic fan, I went to so many SE Melb events at the time that the team and coach Brian Goorjian felt like family. Remember after home games at Rod Laver where everyone would gather around on level 1 and the team would do autographs and a few speeches? Felt like that happened every week,  the sense of community was amazing.

I Embraced the Titans because, well, it was pretty much the Magic plus D-mac. After that went sideways I just couldn't get around the NBL to that level again.

 

Brian was a legend. A great coach and and a super nice guy. A friend has a gym that Brian attends and he speaks so highly of him. My kids loved Adonis Jordan, who sadly only played one or two seasons. The atmosphere at those games was Magic. Although an AFL fan I really thought that Basketball was the next big thing.

Fantastic coach and a great public speaker, got a lot of time for him.

trying to shed a few kilos.

Here's a surefire way to shed those kilos, Red… drink water.

Even if you were to change NOTHING in terms of diet and exercise, by drinking a minimum of 2 litres of water per day you’re guaranteed to drop weight, in particular you’ll see a reduction in belly-fat.

Come on Luci admit it ............... I reckon you're the love struck sheila that keeps sending those anonymous but doting little missives to The Manor.

I’d say that’s correct, MD. Way more Ronald bears. ❤️💙

Fun fact: Re jumper numbers: Fritta had 31, 33 and 35 available. His dad Scott wore #35 for his entire playing career with Coldstream (incidentally, he’s still the record holder for most games played), as did his brother Darcey and also Fritta at one point wore #35. So it was a no-brainer that he wanted #35. But the Club decided HP would wear #35 so Fritta got #31. 

I haven't seen Harry Potter line up too often for the Dees in any position or jumper. But perhaps he is secretly using Polyjuice Potion to look like Harrison Petty? 😆

That’s because we are all non discriminatory.

Pondering my possible response:

  • ignore the post:  too late now!
  • post what I'm thinking :  you should be so lucky!!!
  • take back my comment about feeling sorry for you...definitely!

Having a mini meltdown right now. No one I know is up this early on a Saturday so please humour me DL. I’m outside the ‘G sitting on a bench passing time coz early for a player sponsor function where I’ll get to chat with Langers and Fritta (the real Langers and Fritta, not my chooks) and this enormous excited dog came bounding towards me with a sopping wet tennis ball in his mouth and long story short now I’m covered in dog-slobber and muddy water!!! I’ve used the entire contents of my water bottle trying to remove the mud and now I look like I’ve wet myself. 😭😭😭

Of course he’ll see it and of course he’ll have something less than complimentary to say about it.

All good now anyways. I dried off in the sun before the event started and all that’s left as a reminder of my personal 9/11 is a couple of paw prints on my pastel mint green bag. But it actually looks good. Might be the start of a new fad…

  • 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.
