Hangon if you do not appreciate a little humour in this bleak period I am sorry for you.

Leave us all here having some resonable discussion and a bit of fun.

It is called "not the Tom scully Thread" for a reason.

Sorry DC I fell in

You can make anything you like of stats but here is an interesting one.

how many games have we lost by 9+ goals over the last 4 year. Below is the result from my investigation

2008 7

2009 6

2010 2

2011 7 with 4 games to go.

So this year we are equal to our bottom out year and we still have 4 games to go, sunday could easily add another.

looks stark against last year.

What it clearly says to me is that we have gone backwards in a big way.

To have as bad a year as 2008 is amazing.

Any thoughts?

If you were watching the Geelong game on TV you would probably have 5 or 6.

And then the win/loss ratio...3 out of 22 in 2008, 7.5 out of 18 in 2011.

We're still winning games. I blame the inconsistency on our leadership group, if that exists. It's normally only a few players under 23 who can hold their head high after a big loss.

Love a white russian or 3...

Love a white russian or 3...

Might have one back in the side this week.

PS. I know he is not really russian.

Can't drink scotch anymore. Gives me too much of a sore head like our club. These days I'm into like the TV commercial "el tranquilo" feeling. A fine Cuban Rum like Havana Club or Santiago De Cuba. Or if I feel like singing a few verses of What shall we do with a Drunken Sailor then Pusser's Navy Rum from the Virgin Islands does the job.

Did you get the free desserts, what were they?

Same place as Lady Hamilton's virtue...

Oh yes...

Cotham Rd , Kew.

From the website:

At St Katherine's you can arrange to have a whole Suckling Pig cooked on the rotisserie, just for your table! For just $85 per person, you'll be treated to a meal designed around the beast.

This beast looks alright...love the rotisserie..

Thanks for that Old Dee! Just when I thought my football world was at its lowest ebb for years, you go ahead and make it irrefutable. $h*t!

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • 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?
