BYO

Guess I will have to take the blender along as well.

 

Dewalt ryobi or makita need to make a battery version blender :)

Big night for the Demons.

Essendon's big win against GWS means we automatically move up one place on the 2013 NAB Cup ladder.

Onward and upward Dees!!!

Toby Greene should be asking for a million bucks a year.

Somebody else got to it first.


Andrew Walker's mark last night should have been penalised for the two hands planted firmly in his opponent's back.

Agreed, but they have been told to pay them, as they are spectacular and rare these days, as players are told not to kick to contests.

Obviously the kid whose going to run out with the team this afternoon has been brought up exclusively on a diet of bananas.

Jeremy Howe doesn't do it.

He does, but they are still rare.

One of those kids was my grandson and I'm offering a free banana to anyone who locates a clear photograph of him leading the team out with Jack Grimes.

I almost convinced him that, as part of his mascot duties, he had to line up for the team in a back pocket on Stephen Milne and, modesty aside, I reckon he might have kept him down to less than three goals on the day.

Off to the GC next week and playing in the hottest part of the day. We are certainly getting no favours from the AFL. I would take the youngsters and give them another game and some travel experience.


I see all the new recruits get presented with their "Blazers" on the 23rd March.

Wonder if they told them about the Blazers before they signed up?

Watched the first 3/4 of the game saturday so far. The umpiring was disgraceful. We showed some glimpses.

Hilarious post on another thread by Nutbean, showing the latest dunny brush and it's called, yes, you guessed it.

Obviously a lot of market research went into the most appropriate name for the brush used to clean toilets.

Heatwave finally over, training should be a bit easier now.

He didn't say how much it cost -- probably about 5 times the market price for similar products, and then will only work sporadically ...

Does that make this the 'No dunny brush' thread? :) Or the 'No need for a dunny brush' thread? :)


Heatwave finally over, training should be a bit easier now.

Just take a sweater and a fold up chair next time.

Some extra water is also a sensible idea .

I really do hope so dc

I guess holding your own is the least you can do. However, and I'd like a Burwood opinion on this, is holding another's even more noble?

only if you are a boarder at Scotch College....... (or a Romsey Boy Scout Pack Leader so I'm told)

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
