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?

He lost the bet.

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.

We could talk about apples or even pears LOL

And then there was recruiting. Or as it could be called, "pin the tail on the donkey".

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

Posted

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

So you are saying as MFC supporters we get to vote more then once?

Posted

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

:wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub:

Would be nice to see Casey win a final and enjoy a banana in recovery.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
