Proof that I'm not stirring - Shannon Byrnes has been included in the squad that's heading off to the red centre.

As I have said before, he'll be our best # 10 since Cale Morton Big Carl!!!!

Hmm that does not say a lot WJ

And you are still stirring.

    I now expect JKH to play the final practice match against the Hawks.

    Excellent - most likely in the midfield while he learns the finer points of the crumbing forward game from our most successful player and the only one to have played in multiple AFL premiership teams.

    I will not bite.

    OK smartie. I challenge you to name another current MFC player to have played in two premierships.

    :lol:

    That is so long ago that even Byrnes cannot remember it.

    Why did Geelong play him constantly in the Reserves and then send him on his way at the end of 2011?

    Easy answer. The guy is way past it.

    Superannuation at the MFC and we were too silly to see it.

    I see the problem OD.

    Memory loss.

    You need to eat more bananas. They help against such ailments.

    FYI, Byrnes was a member of the 2007 and 2009 premiership teams and wasn't let go by the Cats at the end of 2011. It was the end of 2012 after playing in the Cats' sensational VFL premiership team.

    You've also forgotten about players having a second wind. The bloke was the matchwinner in one of our two wins last year - against GWS where he picked up two Brownlow votes. Name five MFC players who polled more than that number in 2013 - T$, Scott Thompson and Brent Moloney don't count.

    It's easy to see why he was picked for Friday night's game. He has a wealth of knowledge about the way Geelong plays and could be our secret weapon. I'm predicting 5 goals from him and a Demon upset.

    So we gave him a two year contract for one good game last year against that great team in GWS who finished last.

    Sort of like playing in the VFL where he should be.

    He is a has been that everyone knew except the MFC.

    Second wind! He would struggle to blow out the candles on his next birthday cake.

    I will stay with the superannuation benefit.

    Did not help us much last year when we played the cats!

    What about those young Asian ladies who want me to correspond with them every time I go onto the Demonland site. What have they got to do with football?

    One would suppose a top wig, racetrack identity and Demonland stalwart like yourself might part with the cash to remove the ads. Otherwise, the only way to beat temptation is to yield to it.

    I suffer from yellow fever and appear to have contracted it for life.

    Biff you do know you can get a shot for that?

    I understand that Redleg would like player X served with an infraction notice although there's no suggestion the bloke even touched a peptide.

    Only a few more months to go!

    Well there is one player who I won't have to watch in the red and blue this year.

    Universally, everyone's worst on the game day thread.

    I would rather play one short, at least that way there are less turnovers.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
