Geez Hardtack ,I never picked you for an old fella.

I've been to Nam twice as a tourist and I would never have survived the mozzies .

My wife is from Tay Ninh and her dad was "re-educated" for 3 years when the South lost .

Lovely people but the ice in the beer is really a post war crime.

Is that because the ice sucks or because it's a crime to put any ice in beer whatsoever.

The ice should be placed AROUND the beer to cool it before the bottle is opened.

I have tried to explain this to the people of Vietnam but they will not accept my imperialist attitude.

Either that or they cannot wait required half hour for the bottles to cool down.

The ice itself is fine,the beer tolerable. Helps wash down the bbq rats marinated in chilli and lemongrass.

I was called up in 1972...on my birthday no less! I was deferred because I was studying at Swinburne and then Gough got voted in later that year and National Service got voted out; can't say I was disappointed.

Same with me.

Interesting I spend Saturday watching Uni Blacks in Amos .

They won again on top and 1 game clear.

Had fun with a couple of mates.

Makes me realise you can go to the footy and have a good time.

Finals football coming I think this is my spot for the next few weeks.

Heard the expected score from the dome of death and my reaction was oh hum what is new.

Spent yesterday baby sitting my GD.

So all in all a good weekend.

I doubt I will go on the weekend even if it is GCS

I have got to the point of who cares anymore with the Dees.

Jetta suspended 1 week and Nicholson a broken jaw. That is 17 players out. Unbelievable.

We could seriously be struggling to field a side by the last round.

I am beginning to seriously doubt our ability to win against the GWS.

We will also destroy Casey's finals again due to injured players.

And still another drama for us in 2012.

A repeated one at that too.

It's amazing how Carlton does this far more blatantly and the experience is used as a sort off hand 'joshing around' conversation piece in the media and when we do it is as if we are the third rising of the fallen angel Beezlebub.

Fitting I suppose...

Redleg another one injured Martin this time.

Another foot injury

That makes it 14 from my count Plus one suspended for a total of 15 players unavailable this week.

Will this ever end

Yes in 5 more weeks.

I hate to admit this but I am listening to a 70's disco mix while I read Demonland.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
