All of what you say is probably true Redleg.

I will be delight if it improves matters.

But where it really counts is winning games.

When that happens I will believe.

I hear you brother. Amen.

 

Banana Up and go...and a Banana today...is that overdoing it ??

You have been in the doldrums OD. If you cannot drink your way out of it - here is the sad alternative.

I am not in the doldrums Bbo

Just have a low opinion of our team at present.

That may well change around 4.30 pm on March 31st.

Just sipping a single malt as I type.

The world with the exception of the MFC is wonderful

Yes not one of your better ones bb.

I think Viney is a certainty this week and I would play Clark. He looked ok and can play out of the goal square. My daughter saw Dawes today and he thought he would be OK to play as well. Trenners needs more game time at Casey and probably another hitout for Blease as well.

I commented elsewhere that it would be a risky strategy if we play too many players who lack match practice. I doubt we can go in with both Clark & Dawes after their limited time on the ground in match practice. Agree on ruling a line through Sam Blease's name and you can add JT to the outs as well.

If they are worried about both, I think they will play Clark before Dawes. He is athletic and harder to stop than Dawes.

We are as one there Redleg.

I also think he is way better as a player than Dawes.

It is going to be interesting to see if Dawes was a good buy.

I used to think he was a good position player in a good team not sure he has that around him at the MFC

The jury is out for me.

And me.


March 2013 has not been one of my better months leaving aside the football.

I bought an Asus Android tablet computer, it ran for 20 minutes and expired.

No problem got my money back and ventured to the Apple shop.

My brother was giving Apple a big wrap ( I should have known better he is a Lions Supporter )

Well 9 days and 3 hours on the phone to Optus, a 1 hour visit to the Apple shop and 2 hours on the phone

to Apple it has been returned as it would not do most function at a satisfactory level and some not at all.

Thank God for the trusty Dell and Microsoft.

Our first game is on the last day of March thank god the MFC has nothing to do with computers

or I would be really worried.

Your lucky to have that much technology option

We were recently the centre of more lightning strikes and even my steam powered system was put out of action.

Telstra Repair date was given by my supplier as 26 April so I was not a happy camper.

I rang to say as I had no internet facility I couldnt arrange payment of my Telstra telephone account. Miraculously the fault was fixed by 5.00 that night ensuring access to Demonland. My supplier (not Telstra) was equally astounded.

We do have the occasional victory over the grander forces so dont despair

dpositive I cannot believe the problems I have with the electronic world.

In the last year I have bought a PVR, TV, and two tablet computers.

All of which either expired in short order after purchase or would not work properly.

Modern technology is wonderful when working but a giant pain when it does not.

These guys make the MFC look like the model of good operation.

Have you thought of living in a cave?

There have been days when I thought I was Redleg.

I would just like an even break when I enter the electronics world.

a 100% failure rate is surely not the average.

My wife is much wiser than me when I was complaining about Apple this morning she said

" you woke up alive today didn't you? That is a hell of a start"

Your wife is right, you have had a win already.

Lucky you, a wife with only one fault.

She has another one that I don't talk much about Redleg.

She picked me!


Does your wife read this site Redleg? If so, you are obviously a man who likes to live on the edge.

Mine doesn't bbo

She just laughs a lot when she sees me on here.

She does and I sometimes do.

Your bravery is clear, Redleg, but don't go to the level of crazy-brave, and start discussing said faults here ... :)

Picking a Dees supporter for a mate is not considered a fault around here :)

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
