Why is it that I feel no frustration from todays game?

Not Angry

Not disappointed

Just normal.

Because it was that sort of game, perhaps? Not flogged by 10 goals like the last two weeks, not a win, just a clanger fest in which for each good bit of play there were one or two facepalm-worthy moments ... One more brick in the road to somewhere good, I hope.

    Don't concern yourself Moon, I'll unveg myself as soon as I'm confident that any schnitzels from Jazza's area are gone from the market.

    Lentils for life, then ... :)

    Haven't seen the game yet but to take Port to under a goal at their home when they were desperate to win to get into the top four, was a great effort.

    We are definitely improving and this off season in adding personnel and learning will be vital to our future.

    We are on the right track.

    YES I guess 4 wins and only a couple of beltings for the year will be an improvement.

    To be very honest at the start of the year I thought five wins would be a big improvement on the two previous years.

    Don't know if we will get 5 wins this year, but we have clearly improved.

    Percentage is the first indicator. It is up.

    I think someone posted that we have lost 6 games by under 20 points. I seem to remember us playing most of our games in the last several years where we were out of it 20 minutes into the game. Then it would get worse.

    I would imagine that Stretch and maybe 2 good mids drafted and maybe another traded in plus Hogan and improvement in youngsters like Salem, JKH, Toumpas, Kent etc and another instructive pre season will have have us climbing the ladder quickly.

    My five wins is wishful think Redleg but I try to imagine a win against the Lions.

    How is the USA treating you?

    Just received an update on Biffen. Apparently just came off a bender to discover his meth lab had burnt down and his girls had joined a union. Biff's life is in a spiral - out of control. I like the guy (even though he stole my credit card) but there is a limit to my good nature. The "lads" consider him a pervert (along with Frosty). I'm going to avoid the Gat for a while.

    So, Spearmint Rhino it is in the meantime?

    Sounds terrible Jazza- like work people advertise as "honest ".

    The alarm clock thing sounds injurious to my delicately balanced sleep patterns.

    Thank you for your kind offer-but the only time I like to see a cows rump is on a plate with chips and salad.

    Thought you pimped cows for a living,so we are in a similar business.{thats what BBO told me}

    We also use a lot of chemicals,so there is natural connection to our trades.

    I even thought we could do a job swap,But then i feared for my girls as you would for yours.{although yours dont have 4 teats]

    You may need to think more about your offer. As it may be you will be exporting more white powder then liquid.

    Plus don't you need a special permit for employing people from the Gat?

    So you don't think we are a chance against the Eagles, DF? If we did get up then, I believe we would hear your cheers over here .... :blink:

    Always a chance R and B

    it is not impossible that five Eagles players could have heart attacks during the game.

    I have no idea how the MFC has won six games in two years.

    Although I did enjoy them it would appear to me they were more by chance then anything else.

    Hoping there will be better days ahead in 2015 as currently we a equal last on the ladder and the only team we were ahead of on last years ladder is above us now.

    We threw away the game last weekend when it was won!

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
