Coffee, beer,wine,sex these are some of the triggers for the craving to smoke.

Does that include doing them on your own, particularly the last one? Couldn't possibly give that one up.

I notice that this thread is approaching 452 pages which was Sir Donald Bradman's highest first class score.

Surely, the time has come for us to do a Matthew Hayden and put an end to this thread at that number of pages to honour the great man?

Plenty of other threads you can worry about WJ, leave this one alone.

It has reached that many pages because people enjoy it.

Why stop there? We could keep going to 700 pages to honour Mick Malthouse. Or 1360 to honour the number of goals kicked by Lockett. Or 4137 to honour Lindrum's highest-ever billiards break.

Well, I never thought I'd see the great man's name on Dland. I dips my lid to you mauriesy.

In fact, you can now stop hiding your face in shame.

You mean Mark Taylor surely, who declared when he was on 334 ... I say lets worry about it only when we are approaching 1107 pages, the world record first class score by Victoria, and even then only to find a better excuse to keep going :blink:

In honour of your beanie, I'll be wearing my 70s royal blue Dees beanie, 2014 members scarf, black jacket and of course the beard.

But what is the secret handshake? :blink::blink:

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
