Ever the pessimist, I have no confidence about a win tonight.

I can’t wait for the umpires to pull out a performance of the ages.

I just see everything going wrong for us.

Wish I had a different mentality and love to be shown wrong.

Real name revealed at last!

    Oh the salty curmudgeon has reappeared.

    Ok I held a Tribunal hearing and in typical AFL fashion, went against the evidence and made up a decision.

    I have banned my self for 7 minutes.

    I will not appeal, as Carlton lawyers are unavailable.

    Just the other day I had the option of salty curmudgeon but went with the pastrami sandwich instead.

    Red, do this thread a favour and ban those [censored] emoji illiteracies !!!

    Oh ..... also ban yourself for using one.

    But that would just make them illicit illiteracies. An illicit illiterate is basically our opponents tonight.

    I'm alarmingly relaxed about this game. Positively oxymoronic in mood.

    Whatever happens, I suspect we'll see them again in a few weeks, if you take my meaning.

    Yes and I am not enjoying it.

    We really have thrown away a great chance at another flag, with a problem we have had for weeks and weeks, poor goal kicking accuracy. Additionally, a failure to go defensive in the last 2-3 minutes and flood the backline, is a blight on our coaching and leadership.

    We were in a PF with 1 minute to go, what a complete lack of understanding of the situation, we showed.

    FMD !!! As soon as I sort out some staffing issues at The Manor I shall give my full attention to this thread.

    I am considering mounting a coup against Redleg who is failing to provide any direction or leadership.

    I am too busy self flagellating after our finals exit.

    I am happy though to join your coup.

    Do you even know how to coup? You can’t coup yourself! It’s not a coup if you’re joining in to overthrow yourself. Silly bugger.

    The Ox was first speaker. Told some stories about his gambling mishaps- funny and entertaining…. but the message was clear. 
    Terrific speaker and entertainer!

    Plenty of casks I hope.

    Should I send the horse and cart to ferry you home to the manor, when the casks are empty?

    • 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.
