I was looking for the MFC party and the Paul Roos party but could not see them.

    It's not the home ground that is making it hard for the Dockers, it's the 3 Cats umpires.

    Umpire 28 has basically gifted 3 goals to the Cats, with each one claimed not to be a free by the commentators. He is pathetic. The other 2 aren't much better.

    Pav and Mayne missing 3 sitters hasn't helped.

    Freo should be at least 4 goals up.

    It's a joke

    The problem with Geelong having such a home ground advantage is that it's greater than the home advantage of the team that finished first. And I don't like Hawthorn.

    Cats now in the Hawks side of the draw. One of them won't make it.

    In my wildest dreams I never thought we would get to 250 pages on this thread.

    The "other one" has slowed to a crawl all but burnt out.

    Bananas forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I listened to the press conference.

    I was impressed and it takes a bit these days for the MFC to impress me.

    Between Mr. P Roos and Mr. P Jackson I think we have something that has not existed for a long time.

    We have IMO two people at the top who know what the hell they are doing.

    I now have something to look forward too at the MFC.

    I am however still fairly pessimistic about our team for 2014 and the next couple of years.

    A lot of work is required to make our list into a competitive unit.

    The upside is I believe we now have the crew to achieve it.

    I have hope this Spring and summer.

    Does this translate into less or more single Malt OD?

    We have only just begun, there are so many other topics to discuss on this thread.

    Has anyone discovered why we accepted Clisby's penalty so that he could play for Casey in the finals and now he is not.

    What the MFC does to Casey in September is the eight wonder of the world to me Redleg.

    I still have no understanding of why you would elevate Magner to the senior list and then not play him

    That is certainly strange. Now he will probably be delisted.

    Where is Clisby, is he injured?

    Then I say "C'mon the CARDIES!"

    (until 1981 the West Perth FC was called the Cardinals then changed their name to Falcons)

    I realise that happened TBF

    Do you know why they changed?

    To better build their band.

    As "Cardinal" Red was seen as an old term and a bird of pray "falcons" was more modern term.

    Funny you should say that BBO. Since my admission to a number of Demonlanders, including yourself, regarding my lack of Scotch knowledge, I've endeavoured to expand my vision marginally. Label 5?

    Baby steps.

    Shiraz is my preferred poison RTG.

    Shhhh there are AFL investigators looking into drugs etc.

    Our offical line must be that we all drink banana smoothies at the MFC.

    :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

    PS does anyone know which team Tony Abbott supports?

    People tell me the MFC as he the type of guy who will give alot to his mates.

    And now we have Roos we need lots of money LOL

    My inside sources tell me the reason Abbot beat Rudd was that half the country voted for some guy called Roos. Go figure.

    So are we going to do something special for our 250 page?

    I suggest a Banana Party

    Everyone must include in their posts the work Banana for a day or so.

    Those that don't must shout a round at the get together

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
