AFL Insider is pretty good too Redleg. Bit of analysis of the game and strategies, which is very good.

Won't watch it because that liar Lynch appears. My son in law said after Lynch retired he went up to him to congratulate him on his career and he turned his back on him. He has the right to be rude and lie if he want's to but I don't have to watch him on TV.

NAB cup squad appears to be falling away. 3 more out today, Morton, Blease and JT. Looks like the rookies will get a go.

The new TV series called "Luck" may appeal to those who follow horse racing . Not sure when it will hit our shores but it's quite popular in the States .

I appreciate that some around here frown on political discussion on this thread but with the Gillard/Rudd battle coming up on Monday I think this becomes appropriate in the circumstances:-

hahaha, very appropriate, Jack

How did he sneak onto this thread?

I was being a bit liberal about the policies in that video so there's no need to labour the point or get green with envy or you might find yourself left in the lurch or even thrown right out of the country.

Just keep the politics out of it.

Might have one of the cooler days in summer on GC today, also wet. May help us a bit. Interested to see if new game style is evident. Coach says it will be.

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

Just won his first at canberra today at 20 to 1. Has improved 2 starts since gelding.

Also think Stefan Martin has some real X factor, even though the conditions certainly didn't favour him tonight.

He just needs some time.

His agility for a big man leaves him sooooo close to being able to stooge defenders like a Buddy Franklin would, but he is just not quite there yet.

He nearly dodged Adcock last night ,which is ridiculous given his size . I think he will have a VERY good year .

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 .

Biff, refer you to your own posts on " Black Caviar " thread on "Other Sports "

#14 : Black Caviar is dodging decent opposition "

#17 : " Sepoy and her [sic] are dodging each other "

#19 : " Moody places her in fields where Sepoy isn't "

#24 : " Just a point of fact mate . They are avoiding each other for now "

BTW , Sepoy [ who is a fine, fine horse ] really carved them up in the Oakleigh Plate yesterday.

Well beaten by several mollydee. Good research too on the Biffenator.

He's probably right about them not racing one another. Sepoy will have to step up to face the BC. Oakleigh Plate form suggests there's better opposition anyway after having the sit of the race.

I thought it was a poor ride for a horse with a lot of weight.

The fact is that Sepoy is 3 ,already carrying top weight in Group1's .and is yet to peak . He didn't really have a chance to sit ,and the speed came from the back .You go and put all your money on BC then .Your favourite mare is a great sprinter .Tip me something less obvious to win and we'll see .You think Sepoys run was that bad-you know nothing about racing then .

HT -they still haven't raced each other have they? Fact.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
