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:

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.

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

Sorry to reduce your enjoyment of the MFC.

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.

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.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
