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.

Just watched Roos speech at the season launch. He is very good. He is a leader of men.

Apologies Redleg.

Accepted. In true AFL spirit, 50% of your 10 minute ban will be suspended.

That is why I take it so seriously.

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.

AFL a national game,but is it really as national as we hope?

 

To be prepare us for the dark days ahead I found something that should cheer most of us up.

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
