Did either salute?

Kingofwallstreet won Group 3 Classic and is heading to the Derby all being well. Pinstriped ran 3rd after being too far back on turn into straight.

    I cannot see the new base at Caulfield being operation this decade if at all. The new leaders at the racing club don't seem to share the same enthusiasm as the previous board. It's Casey for a long time yet I fear.

    I was talking to another Dees supporter yesterday who says that Caulfield is Crown Land , and that it’s to be used for “racing recreation” only.Hence the hold up. My neighbour is a very experienced lawyer.

    Sounds like a good day Mr. Leg.

    With a government fighting for survival I doubt it is on their priority list.

    Thanks, OD.

    The likes of us will need to get a shuffle on, posting wise, if we're to see another 'notable' here before we shuffle off...

    I see we are more entertaining off field than on these days. I am hoping we can win another flag in the next 50 years or so as things are not looking good for one in next decade or three.

    I hope you are well OD?

    Have you been hibernating Frog ?

    I not been paying that much attention to the Dees lately as the loss of 4 straight finals matches was so annoying. But it appears the Dees are self-destructing in so many ways,  I had to come out of my hibernation and order a truck load of popcorn.

    I hope you are well?

    Good to have you back DF. Not much banana-related developments of late (unless you count the interest in the off-field workings of the Dees, over which the football "journalism" community appear to have gone bananas ... :-) )

    I love eating/drinking a banana 🍌 or two 😋 😍 and currently glad I don't hear a lot of what is going on in Demonland as Apparently I must know what is happening at Fremantle and the Eagles.  Will my suffering ever STOP?

    Commitment to the family company is admirable but that is a weird t-shirt his dad is wearing.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
