Get a mike and keep singing Tie A Yellow Ribbon and Roberta Flack’s The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face, that should stop them.

That wouldn’t suffice. They brought out the big guns last night at about 11pm. They *each had a go at that god-awful Celine Dion Titanic song. If I didn’t already hate that song with a passion, I do now.

*there’s six of them 😳

    Haha. WCW, I think you are very much underestimating just how annoying you can be. Give it a shot.

    (happy new year)

    I have a developing conundrum ! Now I realise that the many sleaze bags who post here will make merry with that statement ( Go ahead because it will probably be true)

    However, that is not my issue. We all know who the epynonomous TS is ..... but we daren't mention him.

    But let's be honest he is .... well history. Even jokes about the infamous pie eater would now fall flat. 

    So @Redleg , I am suggesting that, in recognition of the changing times, a name change for this thread is now in order.

    In keeping with theme of unmentionables ( with which I am quite familiar) I suggest The No CO No B$ Thread.

    I can’t speak for the other sleaze-bags who post here, but I disagree wholeheartedly! On what planet are C.O. and T.$. interchangeable??? Methinks dementia is winning the battle, BBO. 😭

    First I don’t understand what the CO stands for, have I missed something?

    While I don’t see the need for a name change, I wouldn’t totally be against it. Perhaps the “DL no B$ Thread” would be acceptable.

    Anyway it does seem to have been a major success and why change a winning formula?

    It is the longest, most read, most posted, most pages thread in DL history, so no real need to change it.

    Ooh ouch they are playing rough.

    That my heart will go on song is very nasty.

    I'd try something like this to warm them up until we can all agree on what will really send them over the edge.

    The worst Karaoke is in Vietnam. Everyone's got one and they turn them up to 11.

    Competing Romantic wailing ballads that sound like cats fighting or Chickens in severe pain.

    Celine is atrocious I agree but surely she can't go on?

    My neighbours are Vietnamese, and they sing this hideous song in their language. Not gonna lie… it’s actually slightly less painful in Vietnamese. Until about the fourth time and then it’s back to ear-bleeds.

    What are the best rock songs with some Saxophone in them?

    I've got dibs on Baker Street.

    Probably the kids don't even know this beautiful classic.

    Not rock but ska deever. How about Night Boat To Cairo from the first Madness album One Step Beyond, released in 1979? Lee Thompson is their irrepressible saxophonist.

    Madness were something different in their day. A quirky band with a fresh sound and fun lyrics.

    Speaking of Ska.....does anyone remember " Free Nelson Mandela?

    Still going strong too deevs. Madstock in Finsbury Park was probably their high point. When the 100,000 crowd started jumping up and down it caused a 4.1 earthquake that set off seismic monitoring equipment at the Greenwich Observatory on the other side of the Thames.

    This. One does not play around with sacred scrjpture or holy origin stories. The T$ referred to is still a [censored], and the "No BS" part is the classic "more honoured in the breach than in observance" irony. Nothing to see here -- move on!

    There is something wrong with your breeches.  It is "breach" in this sense.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • 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.
