Get a mike and keep singing Tie A Yellow Ribbon and Roberta Flack’s The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face, that should stop them.

That wouldn’t suffice. They brought out the big guns last night at about 11pm. They *each had a go at that god-awful Celine Dion Titanic song. If I didn’t already hate that song with a passion, I do now.

*there’s six of them 😳

    Haha. WCW, I think you are very much underestimating just how annoying you can be. Give it a shot.

    (happy new year)

    I have a developing conundrum ! Now I realise that the many sleaze bags who post here will make merry with that statement ( Go ahead because it will probably be true)

    However, that is not my issue. We all know who the epynonomous TS is ..... but we daren't mention him.

    But let's be honest he is .... well history. Even jokes about the infamous pie eater would now fall flat. 

    So @Redleg , I am suggesting that, in recognition of the changing times, a name change for this thread is now in order.

    In keeping with theme of unmentionables ( with which I am quite familiar) I suggest The No CO No B$ Thread.

    I can’t speak for the other sleaze-bags who post here, but I disagree wholeheartedly! On what planet are C.O. and T.$. interchangeable??? Methinks dementia is winning the battle, BBO. 😭

    First I don’t understand what the CO stands for, have I missed something?

    While I don’t see the need for a name change, I wouldn’t totally be against it. Perhaps the “DL no B$ Thread” would be acceptable.

    Anyway it does seem to have been a major success and why change a winning formula?

    It is the longest, most read, most posted, most pages thread in DL history, so no real need to change it.

    Ooh ouch they are playing rough.

    That my heart will go on song is very nasty.

    I'd try something like this to warm them up until we can all agree on what will really send them over the edge.

    The worst Karaoke is in Vietnam. Everyone's got one and they turn them up to 11.

    Competing Romantic wailing ballads that sound like cats fighting or Chickens in severe pain.

    Celine is atrocious I agree but surely she can't go on?

    My neighbours are Vietnamese, and they sing this hideous song in their language. Not gonna lie… it’s actually slightly less painful in Vietnamese. Until about the fourth time and then it’s back to ear-bleeds.

    What are the best rock songs with some Saxophone in them?

    I've got dibs on Baker Street.

    Probably the kids don't even know this beautiful classic.

    Not rock but ska deever. How about Night Boat To Cairo from the first Madness album One Step Beyond, released in 1979? Lee Thompson is their irrepressible saxophonist.

    Madness were something different in their day. A quirky band with a fresh sound and fun lyrics.

    Still going strong too deevs. Madstock in Finsbury Park was probably their high point. When the 100,000 crowd started jumping up and down it caused a 4.1 earthquake that set off seismic monitoring equipment at the Greenwich Observatory on the other side of the Thames.

    This. One does not play around with sacred scrjpture or holy origin stories. The T$ referred to is still a [censored], and the "No BS" part is the classic "more honoured in the breach than in observance" irony. Nothing to see here -- move on!

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
