Bitty v the rest of the thread

May I suggest he go to bed to sleep it off

Will talk to you after a good nights sleep Mr Bitty

Yeah, it seems a bit like an albatross attacked one of his alpacas or something ... :blink:

 

Why, it would only be negative.

I will try to stay out of your way in the future.

Sorry to reduce your enjoyment of the MFC.

I'll bow to your superior knowledge on that subject RL and avoid that site. I believe it is one of Biffen's favourites. However I'd like OD's view.!

I won't give one Bbo as it would no doubt be viewed as negative.

Amen to that and now back on topic, I think it must surely have been a triumphant moment for this thread that the co-captain of this august football club and one of the nation's premier sporting organisations told an audience of 650 adoring supporters that his daily dietary regimen involves the consumption (inter alia) of at least eight bananas.

I thought I would share this news with you while it was still ripe.

You aren't, but injuries certainly are.

Clark taking a break. Viney concussed today. Dawes a one week injury possibly stretching to 5-6 or more. Hogan, who knows? Garland, 1, 2, 3, 4 weeks or more?

Stop sooking and go and eat some banana fritters.

I can't understand Olds objection to being called negative. He is wonderfully negative. OD has made negativity an artform. OD is a reality check to those pathetic souls who think we follow Melbourne to one day enjoy Premiership success. He is an inspiration to continue supporting dead set losers. A true MFC stalwart.

 

Sorry to interrupt transmission but I have a long memory and therefore Great to see Scully's doing fack all.

Well, the changing landscape of football. 3 Interstate sides have won so far. Hopefully Port make it a clean sweep for the weekend.

Don't be upset, this is what the AFL want. It has become so much harder for us to rise up the ladder. We could improve and still finish bottom.

This club is cursed:

Clark on extended leave from the club.

Dawes a slight calf strain and out for who knows how long.

Hogan a stress issue in the back, same as Dawes.

Viney injured last year, concussed today.

Our best backman Garland out injured.

Star players in the past cruelled by injury and their careers curtailed, naming just one, Jakovich.

The only club done for tanking, with a finding of no tanking.

Poor drafting, over and over again.

Instability with Coaching, Board and Administration, etc, etc, etc.

You can not get any more cursed than that.

Yes, but somehow I had the feeling that an interstate side was likely to win the game between GWS and the Swans ... :)

I agree with your general point, though.

Since 16 of the 18 AFL teams are from interstate I would expect that at lest 7 to 9 games a week will be won by an interstate team.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

  • 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.
