    How about 'faster to recover than BBO's liver' then? :blink::blink:

    Well after a terrific Saturday Sunday turned to mud.

    I was barracking for the Pies yesterday and they got done by Adelaide singly the worst mob in the AFL by the length of the Flemington straight.

    Oh well there is always next weekend.

    They are a funny side the Crows. They have a lot of dumpy looking Collingwood 6 footers but get the job done.

    Funny and Adelaide are not words I would normally put in the same sentence Redleg.

    Dislike, Hate, rabble, agony, are a few that come to mind but funny no.

    I am not a great fan of Adelaide, but something in me finds it hard to be upset when the Pies get done and may miss out on the finals as a result ... :blink:

    I'm with R & B on this OD. Pain for the filth is always enjoyable.

    Not saying you are wrong Bbo but in this case I think it is the lesser of the two evils.

    As I posted months ago after speaking to PJ, Roos has agreed to a third year as Coach.

    The building blocks of our revival are being put in place.

    On a side note to the Essendon drug fiasco, I heard that seven wheelchair athletes have been banned from the Commonwealth Games paralympics after they tested positive for WD40.

    I heard that another 20 of them were banned because they rocked up to training legless.

    Like yourself jazza, i am transmogrifying into a new and even better me.

    Had my first gym session (properly called a workout I believe) today. My Personal Trainer escorted me to a treadmill to “warm up”, as she put it. That was quite painful as the side rails rubbed rather nastily on my manly mid section.

    I was gasping and bawling after about 30 seconds so she decided I was warmed up enough. She also attempted to get me on a bike but that caused some very embarrassing personal issues.

    Now it was time to “pump iron”. I was led to a machine called the “Pec Deck” – apparently used to develop one’s pectorals. Well my pectorals hang to my waist so I didn’t think further development was required. However, I allowed myself to be guided by the professional (as I have on many previous occasions)

    An excruciating experience but I did my 5 “reps” (that’s gym talk) and called it a day.

    I understand protein intake is advised after a workout so I purchased (and consumed) 2 meat pies on the way back to the manor.

    I’ll have a day’s rest and be back into it on Thursday.

    However, I feel I have made advances already.

    Doesn't matter if both the Crows and the Pies make the finals - neither would get past week 2 at best.

    If the Crows go O K we can always say the Demons beat them over there anyway.

    No BB. At this point myself, my Doctor and the PT are still negotiating this concept of "diet". When the notion of cutting back red wine intake was mentioned I became quite agitated and we haven't really progressed.

    Going to the gym won't help you BBO- you need Pilates and hydrotherapy.

    But I am sure you are only in there for visual stimulation as well as your feeble attempts at efficacy.

    Very negative and unsupportive of you Biffen. I am sure that when I become a new man I'll be be a big hit at the Gat and you'll be in my shadow.

    BTW. As to "visual stimulation", I was receiving quite a few meaningful glances today!!

    • 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.
