Just got back from a week in the bush, out of mobile range and definately no computer access (didn't even know who won the Cup until this morning). I can't believe how I missed Demonland and how much reading I have to do to catch up on all things 'Melbourne' and all things T$ No B$. Congrats on passing the 1000 mark Redleg.

Other than the continued T$/GWS and DB threads and a bit of the Sylvia thread you haven't really missed much. Yes, the Cup has gone been won by the French again, Black Caviar has made it 16 from 16 starts and Banana prices are dropping. And there's training this morning with what should be a fuller squad at 10am. Welcome back.

2011 has finally started to show a good side to me.

Went to the Basketball last night.

The Tigers are coming together beautifully.

5 wins from 6 games, it is not hard to see why patrick mills is in the NBA ( when they are playing )

The guy is brilliant.

Such a contrast to the Dees, most of the team have only been playing together 10 weeks

and they are already looking good.

As well i don't have to wait 3 years till they develop ( I know it is a different situation. )

Finally something with "Melbourne" in it that is doing well.

Roll on summer 2011 /2

Well 16 days and counting.

Draft comment: Would love to see Demetriou present the jumper to the number 1 draft pick, who says how excited he is to be at GWS and hopes to be there for life, with the camera then flashing to a picture of "you know who" in his GWS jumper.

15 days and counting.

Draft Comment: Will we see the 2 boys picked by Port and Lions in the first round in amongst all the early GWS picks, scream with delight, when they realise they don't have to play with GWS?

I doubt whether there are going to be any squeals of delight from the poor kid who has to go to Port Adelaide. That's like going to Blacktown but you get to wear designer moccasins.

BTW what time zone are you in. By me, it's 16 days to go.

It's my birthday and on this joyous occasion I bought myself some bananas. You may think I jest but Safeway 5.79 a kg says why the bloody hell not to me! :)

Funny that we are back on the bananas as I just had one with ice cream while watching Seinfeld.

That is a utopian moment you must celebrate, similiar in the way Jerry celebrates a good parking Spot!!

And for some more disco Bee Gees - Love You Inside Out.

I am one of the few who admit to loving disco.

Edited by Redleg

The chains are on the car ready to go and hopefully our maid has given our Hotham chalet a clean-up prior to our arrival tomorrow.

Our son Ben is bringing up a few of his Xavier College mates. Next week it's Becky and her group from Lauriston.

I missed the season here last year as we decided to head over to Banff in Canada. Just couldn't stand to be in town while the Dees were losing.

Old chap - can't have been much snow at Banff during our footy season, what oh? Still, I guess one can just hang out with some of the chaps from school, or maybe from the city, and have a few cocktails, or do a bit of work for the old man, what?

And old chap - better keep a bit of an eye on those Xavier chaps - they are gaining a bit of a reputation for getting a bit out of hand at times - and most of them are Catholics, what!

And for some more disco Bee Gees - Love You Inside Out.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
