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.

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.

Had a sneak look at that other thread!

It astounds me how much can be written about nothing new.

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 am a lifelong Melbourne supporter, I lead a boring, miserable life.

You have family and friends who love you.

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

I just tell people I'm addicted to meth.

Much less stigma attached.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
