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?

    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.

    You live and learn I guess

    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.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
