Will be too busy watching 2 of mine go around today Le Beau Cheval at 2.18 at Goulburn and Noble Game at 8.45 at Moonee Valley and then sunday No Dispute 4.12 at Bendigo. Hopefully they all go well.

BTW go like "lightning" BC.

Le Beau Cheval 3rd at 56 to 1, better run, but he looks limited to me.

I'm surprised that nobody here has seen fit to comment about the fact that yesterday will become known as the day the music died again - the day they released the GWS club song.

Actually, they didn't release it - it just escaped.

I heard it while driving to Casey Fields for yesterday's practice match and I nearly ran the car off the South Gippy Highway.

For some reason, I was expecting the GWS song to resonate with the sounds normally associated with belly dancers and cheap felafel joints but a disco version of a Cossack dance from the steppes of Russia?

Far out!!!!

What's more is that it got even better when I saw vision of players lip synching their new song on video, Milli Vanilli style. How appropriate for a fake football club to evoke images of that group of frauds with the release of their club song?

For all that, while this catastrophic piece has undoubtedly set the song writing for new franchises industry back some decades, I still reckon that, as bad as the song is, it's the best thing to ever emanate from the black hole we know as Greater Western Sydney.

Those bastards deserve it - and more!!!

Nineteen. But don't let on to the Biffenator. He's a big Sepoy fan. Apparently according to Biffen, Black Caviar has been avoiding Sepoy. If you want to talk racing or BC - there is a Black Caviar thread in Sports. Redleg, you might want to add some input on BC.

Didn't actually say that HT .Do bookies pay you to tout things this far in the red or are you just a safety officer ? Fact is they wont race each other .

They have more - they've got the Voldemort family. Overweight and overpaid dad. Fake tan sister and the honest little lord with the dunnybrush haircut.

You really can't ask for more.

I just made the mistake of listening to it. Fortunately I don't think we'll have to listen to it very often.

WJ I have got to the point with GWS that all things to do with them make my brain go into hibernation mode and my eyes glaze over .

But if I must comment then it is a very ordinary song but so are all the new entrants IMO.

All the good ones are gone and it takes 50+ years before heritage starts to kick in, I thing Geelong has one of the worst songs but over time it grows on people

Especially after you win 3 flags in 5 years.

On that basis the GWS is going to be poxy well past all of our times on this earth.

Black Caviar. I dream of the day our footy team can take on the best opposition and still win convincingly, start, after start, after start.

I still dream Deeoldfart quite often over the last few years I think it is the only thing I have left.

Perhaps 2012 will be the start! We maybe 2 year olds starting our first campaign?

I have worked as a supplier to that industry for 35 years DC

Too much power in the hands of two.

No where in the world do 2 control 80% of the market.

I could tell you stories of how bad they are for 2 hours but I am sure we both have better things to do.

No Dispute scratched. BC wins again but against horses resuming from spells and was pushed by Hay List. 19 now but her next may be o/s. She will not run next week.

Watching the perth games v bombers and the amount of soft free kicks to the perth teams is disgraceful, not to mention the obvious ones to the bombers being missed. This has to be the most difficult state to get a free if you are the visiting side. I thought the umpiring tonight was disgraceful and I don't even care. Maybe they are practicing as well. Oh well I'll try and make that my only umpire rant this year, if I can.

Not sure if its posted elsewhere on DL, but whats all this about D Swan testing positive for drugs for the 3rd time? Its going around town up here and in the city, surely the beginning of the fall for the pies if true......anyone heard anything more substantial??

Nothing about it on the Collingwood website, Swan's Facebook or the Drug Squad's Twitter page so it must be untrue!

Just listened to the song...

I would say it sounds like the Mickey Mouse Club march song, but I don't want to offend the great mouse himself.

Mmmm....your probably right DM, but I did hear it from 2 separate sources in both country Victoria and the inner city on the same day. Just thought I post it, just in case....

If true Eddie would squash it , it is Collingwood after all.

Moody said as much after the race, although there now maybe a change of heart for next week. She pulled up very well.

Saturday Night game Footscray vs GWS

I thought there was a serious jumper clash at this game.

Red Dogs jumper vs a 75% Orange jumper from GWS

How does that fit the AFL policy?

Or Is it just me

Sorry guys missed the thread on same subject

They might have bigger issues to worry about.

Enjoying AFL 360. Good footy show.
AFL Insider is pretty good too Redleg. Bit of analysis of the game and strategies, which is very good.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
