Geez Hardtack ,I never picked you for an old fella.

I've been to Nam twice as a tourist and I would never have survived the mozzies .

My wife is from Tay Ninh and her dad was "re-educated" for 3 years when the South lost .

Lovely people but the ice in the beer is really a post war crime.

Is that because the ice sucks or because it's a crime to put any ice in beer whatsoever.

Seems it’s gone the way of the Joel Smith tests positive thread aka the Demonland Bermuda Triangle.

It was not that long ago people were saying the Dees would fall apart without Hogan. Glad to see they were wrong. I tend not to follow ex players as I lose interest once they leave the club. I mu

The ice should be placed AROUND the beer to cool it before the bottle is opened.

I have tried to explain this to the people of Vietnam but they will not accept my imperialist attitude.

Either that or they cannot wait required half hour for the bottles to cool down.

The ice itself is fine,the beer tolerable. Helps wash down the bbq rats marinated in chilli and lemongrass.

I was called up in 1972...on my birthday no less! I was deferred because I was studying at Swinburne and then Gough got voted in later that year and National Service got voted out; can't say I was disappointed.

Same with me.

Interesting I spend Saturday watching Uni Blacks in Amos .

They won again on top and 1 game clear.

Had fun with a couple of mates.

Makes me realise you can go to the footy and have a good time.

Finals football coming I think this is my spot for the next few weeks.

Heard the expected score from the dome of death and my reaction was oh hum what is new.

Spent yesterday baby sitting my GD.

So all in all a good weekend.

I doubt I will go on the weekend even if it is GCS

I have got to the point of who cares anymore with the Dees.

Jetta suspended 1 week and Nicholson a broken jaw. That is 17 players out. Unbelievable.

We could seriously be struggling to field a side by the last round.

I am beginning to seriously doubt our ability to win against the GWS.

We will also destroy Casey's finals again due to injured players.

And still another drama for us in 2012.

A repeated one at that too.

It's amazing how Carlton does this far more blatantly and the experience is used as a sort off hand 'joshing around' conversation piece in the media and when we do it is as if we are the third rising of the fallen angel Beezlebub.

Fitting I suppose...

Yes in 5 more weeks.

I hate to admit this but I am listening to a 70's disco mix while I read Demonland.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
