    Good one HT I like it a lot.

    Hope you had a bet on Iconic Princess who won at Geelong today and Man of Magic ran 2nd at Ballarat Wednesday at his first start. When I am away they do well. IP has now won 3 at Geelong on the synthetic.

    No redleg I did not know they were your horses.

    But that is the story of my punting life.

    Unfortunatly it is still a better story than my success in following the Dees

    [bloody joke. All games except ours being shown live on free to air or foxtel on Gold Coast where I am at the moment. Ours on replay on foxtel at 8.30. Unbelievable.

    Go Sydney, go Carltank (simply because I want Sydney to knock the Aints out in the finals) and most importantly, go Tiges so we can drag out this old chestnut...

    Just had a Hungry Jacks egg muffin and they are not as good as the big yellow M variety. See what this team has done to me, I am writing about breakfast muffins. Oh how I long for the days of the Banana Smoothie.

    Well that is it for 2011. Just to add the icing to the cake, the game cut out on my recording 2.5 minutes from the end. Trade and draft week to look forward to.

    By the way, were the umpires paid employees of Port Power. 28 frees to Port and 13 to us, 6 goals to Port from frees and at least another 2 goals to Port after a Dees free was ignored and a Mark of the Year contender to Howe 10 metres out not paid and then a goal to them on the rebound..

    Well I guess that brings another wonderful season by the MFC to an end.

    And what a wonderful year it was.

    We played on average a lot worse than 2010, 6 - 9+ goal losses vs 2 in 2010.

    We got thrashed by the age old enemy.

    We went into the record books with a 186 point belting.

    We sacked a coach during the year.

    We ended the season with losses to Richmond and Port.

    Our Captain was next to useless for the majority of the year

    and the vice captain could not make the side for the last round through poor form.

    At the finish 13th on the ladder.

    Yes all in all a wonderful year.

    But in true Demon fashion there is always next year and the next year and the next year and the next year!

    If not for the fact that we let Junior go in a messy way, we would be seriously looking at getting rid of our captain and vice captain. Wont happen, but on form it should.

    Its basically I think yes and I think no and that is how it has been since it started. Lot more info on this thread such as horse racing, bananas, frustration with the Dees.

    speaking of which what is the current price?

    believe it or not I had some for fathers day breakfast.

    Present to me by my daughter.

    We had a good laugh when I said Redleg would be impressed.

    They Looked at me as though I came from Mars.

    It took some explaining.

    Then Perhaps I do!

    I know what you mean. I get funny looks when I say to someone I post on a Melbourne FC fan site and enjoy reading it.

    I think bananas are about $9.99 a kilo at the moment.

    Not sure why it is assumed you have to be under 30 to post on a web site.

    Well my present was a bit more expensive than I thought.

    Never thought I would see the day when Bananas would be top of my wish list!

    I've been an administrator of this site for almost six years, and the first time I ever actually told anyone about it (most who know me well figured it out) was about six months ago. I felt like such a retarded dweeb. Will never do again.

    I know your pain...

    My name is rpfc, and I post at Demonland.

    Hello rpfc...

    You have family and friends who love you.

    Maybe Demonland should have a 'Beyond Blue' sticky thread...

    I don't tell them about this per se - say I'm a member of a MFC supporter's group. Much less cringe-worthy.

    I just tell people I'm addicted to meth.

    Much less stigma attached.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
