    I think the experts will all change their tips for Wooden spooners, to Saints or us and then next week, to the loser of that game.

    Dees by a point Redleg.

    But that does not alter us as even favourites.

    God I don't want the only thing worth talking about in 2014 to be the draft.

    Please can we just win a few and finish 15th or 16th.

    PLEASE

    Updated Report form my Guild Wars 2 Activity (a fantacy world in which the massive losses of my beloved MFC does not matter).

    Leveled (80) the Mesmer this week and purchased Asended Armour with ruins as well as full set of jewellery. Also upgraded the colour of his armour to Red and Navy Blue, which the colour of my other two main toons. He looking pretty sexy now in his new gear even for a green sylvari.

    However I have been badly beaten up by all the young players in World v World while I am learning the new Mesmer skills. Fortunately when I get a Thief's stabbing me in the back after they shadow jump me my fellow guild members enjoy hunting them down. It stange that they all appear to look like BBO and Moonie's avartas , just smaller and younger versions.

    Oh well back to reality and the pain I now continually feel when thinking of the MFC.

    Do I have this right so far for the start of the 2014 season. Most of our good players are injuried to the point we have no forward line and the Mid field while better the 2013 is still bad?

    Do we need to employ Councillors and Social Works to assist with the fragile nature of the average MFC player this year?

    Well back to some thing more enjoyable here is a banana, so the world is not ending yet.

    It was going to be a cute picture of a cat cuddling up to a large dog but for some reason the picture did not work.

    Now that is funny DC and not I not ashamed.

    The average age of a gamer in Australia is over 30 (yes that average age).

    I play with two Englishmen on a regular basis who were born in the same year as myself.

    A guild I was once in was run by a 66 year old Dutch women and I played with a number of 60 plus Australians over the years.

    There is even an Australian based Gamers Club called The Older Gamers (TOG) which you have to be over 25 years old to join.Pity that does not mean they are the Mature Gamers thought.

    It just another form of entertainment which unlike TV which I watch rarely its in interactive. A great way to destress and forces you to think about other thing then work. Which is alot like DL.

    It true that you do need to be conscience of younger players but it so easy to know who they are by how they continue demand help and items for free. IMO it much better to play with mature players although, I as many other gamers have played with many young people over the years.

    But the important thing DC is don't just knock something without trying it first and that games are not just designed for children (average age is 30).

    Personally I think gaming is great for older people as it allows a level of social contact, keep their mind active (unlike watching passive TV). But in all things in life it should not be the only thing people do or how they socialise with others. Balance is the key.

    When with regards to tracking it would be true to say anything we do online may be tracked or screen shot can be taken of conversations which IMO is a good thing. If someone wants to track my gaming activities well they in for on boring time so they may as well buy an account and just team with me.

    I hope you not going to comment about my time in the Scouts although I only ever been youth member and that is were I did meet my wife.

    My comments about gaming in the thread is because I believe the MFC will have another bad season and as a supporter we will need other outlets to vent their frustrations. It also helps that it appears to upsets BBO and Moonie but that just a bonus.

    The AFL should feel ashamed for some of the things they have done to this club and its personnel.

    Selectively punishing the MFC and no other club for discussing tanking.

    Punishing Dean Bailey.

    Putting Chris Connolly out of the game.

    Refusing to give us a PP despite 7 years of pathetic football and bowing to the wishes of the strong clubs.

    Giving us a draw that makes it impossible to make money.

    Allowing GWS to take our number 1 pick off us and sign him less than 1 year after we drafted him, even though I am happy with the end result.

    The only positive being help in getting Peter Jackson.

    But they're getting their national comp even if it kills off a couple of the club's in football's heartland.

    It is way more important to the AFL that GWS and the Suns prosper than what it is for Dogs, North, Saints and us to prosper WJ

    There was a joke going around in pre politically correct times about a very useful household appliance that did the washing, ironing etc and then could be screwed on the bed. No doubt someone will recall how it goes.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
