Good Evening demonlanders.

I joined twitter a few days back.

Why because the number of people talking about it and using it intrigued me.

So far I am totally under whelmed.

Truly struggling to see the value.

What piece of magic am I missing?

My do you people out there use it?

Aren't people who use twitter twits?

    I have been considering that option for the last few days Redleg.

    In the absence of an wise guiding information from Demonlanders I am about to fall into the inactive group.

    It is a conversation tool, so it is only useful if there are people there you want to converse with. Hence joining up with a group of friends or people with a common interest is the way to go.

    Hey Biff, if you join twitter you can receive tweets from the mighty Black Caviar. You'll drool over it.

    Quite frankly, I don't know how she does it so quickly having just completed her run ...?

    And they thought Mr.Ed was all class talking and all. BC tweets!

    check your local library biffo

    much better than 50 shades of grey

    My wife bought that book and hasn't wanted a bar of me since.

    I've been using the buit up sexual tension to have juvenile arguments with Stu.

    I picture myself pouring hot wax all over him and then getting BBO to whip him Red and Blue.

    Sloonie then comes in and [censored] Slaps him till he finally shuts the frick up.

    It's not perfect ,but it gets me through.

    Clearly not.

    I have just downed a bottle of 2009 Pinot ,some steak and some salad and spuds .

    My four year old is asking lots of "why" ,"but why" questions.

    I make up my favourite answers.

    I find that more satisfying than meeting up with my new found twitter mates . B)

    Rather talk to you here longsuffering

    Tweeting is BS in my view.

    Probably too old to get it.

    Life has taught me that occasionalyl things don't suit you.

    Most of the 21st century suits me fine.

    I have already moved on.

    Why is it that ever year February is the best time of the year for tragic's

    I live in hope that one year September will be the best time of the year.

    2014 perhaps

    Hope this is not true, but a guy at work today told me that he heard from a Doctor that Clark's injury is far worse than we are being told and that Trengove had surgery on his broken foot a week ago.

    But there is a photo from training on Monday this week of Jack and Mitch walking and kicking the football quite freely. If Jack had been operated on again wouldnt he be in a moon boot/crutches or just not walking around.

    There is a lot of drivel, OD, like everywhere else on the Internet, but there are occasional nuggets that make it worthwhile. Have you tried searching hashtags of things you are interested in? (eg #bananachampagne :) )

    Can't imagine that, BBO --- just sign up with Biff and you can tweet away to your heart's content ... :)

    On 3AW's Rumour File yesterday, Ross Stevenson said that the AFL was going to lay tanking charges against the MFC during the day. It didn't happen apparently.

    That's why they call it the Rumour File.

    Yes as far as JT goes but Clark is a long way from playing just walking around. Hope the info is wrong as I said earlier.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
