Ever the pessimist, I have no confidence about a win tonight.

I can’t wait for the umpires to pull out a performance of the ages.

I just see everything going wrong for us.

Wish I had a different mentality and love to be shown wrong.

Real name revealed at last!

Oh the salty curmudgeon has reappeared.

Ok I held a Tribunal hearing and in typical AFL fashion, went against the evidence and made up a decision.

I have banned my self for 7 minutes.

I will not appeal, as Carlton lawyers are unavailable.

Just the other day I had the option of salty curmudgeon but went with the pastrami sandwich instead.

Red, do this thread a favour and ban those [censored] emoji illiteracies !!!

Oh ..... also ban yourself for using one.

But that would just make them illicit illiteracies. An illicit illiterate is basically our opponents tonight.

I'm alarmingly relaxed about this game. Positively oxymoronic in mood.

Whatever happens, I suspect we'll see them again in a few weeks, if you take my meaning.

Yes and I am not enjoying it.

We really have thrown away a great chance at another flag, with a problem we have had for weeks and weeks, poor goal kicking accuracy. Additionally, a failure to go defensive in the last 2-3 minutes and flood the backline, is a blight on our coaching and leadership.

We were in a PF with 1 minute to go, what a complete lack of understanding of the situation, we showed.

You're not in Sydney, yeah?

FMD !!! As soon as I sort out some staffing issues at The Manor I shall give my full attention to this thread.

I am considering mounting a coup against Redleg who is failing to provide any direction or leadership.

I am too busy self flagellating after our finals exit.

I am happy though to join your coup.

That's my plan for Friday... support the orange team while having some orange (amber...?)

Do you even know how to coup? You can’t coup yourself! It’s not a coup if you’re joining in to overthrow yourself. Silly bugger.

Currently at a function at MCC. 
The Ox was first speaker. Told some stories about his gambling mishaps- funny and entertaining…. but the message was clear. 
Terrific speaker and entertainer!

Plenty of casks I hope.

Should I send the horse and cart to ferry you home to the manor, when the casks are empty?

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
