All of what you say is probably true Redleg.

I will be delight if it improves matters.

But where it really counts is winning games.

When that happens I will believe.

I hear you brother. Amen.

You have been in the doldrums OD. If you cannot drink your way out of it - here is the sad alternative.

I am not in the doldrums Bbo

Just have a low opinion of our team at present.

That may well change around 4.30 pm on March 31st.

Just sipping a single malt as I type.

The world with the exception of the MFC is wonderful

I think Viney is a certainty this week and I would play Clark. He looked ok and can play out of the goal square. My daughter saw Dawes today and he thought he would be OK to play as well. Trenners needs more game time at Casey and probably another hitout for Blease as well.

I commented elsewhere that it would be a risky strategy if we play too many players who lack match practice. I doubt we can go in with both Clark & Dawes after their limited time on the ground in match practice. Agree on ruling a line through Sam Blease's name and you can add JT to the outs as well.

If they are worried about both, I think they will play Clark before Dawes. He is athletic and harder to stop than Dawes.

We are as one there Redleg.

I also think he is way better as a player than Dawes.

It is going to be interesting to see if Dawes was a good buy.

I used to think he was a good position player in a good team not sure he has that around him at the MFC

The jury is out for me.

March 2013 has not been one of my better months leaving aside the football.

I bought an Asus Android tablet computer, it ran for 20 minutes and expired.

No problem got my money back and ventured to the Apple shop.

My brother was giving Apple a big wrap ( I should have known better he is a Lions Supporter )

Well 9 days and 3 hours on the phone to Optus, a 1 hour visit to the Apple shop and 2 hours on the phone

to Apple it has been returned as it would not do most function at a satisfactory level and some not at all.

Thank God for the trusty Dell and Microsoft.

Our first game is on the last day of March thank god the MFC has nothing to do with computers

or I would be really worried.

Your lucky to have that much technology option

We were recently the centre of more lightning strikes and even my steam powered system was put out of action.

Telstra Repair date was given by my supplier as 26 April so I was not a happy camper.

I rang to say as I had no internet facility I couldnt arrange payment of my Telstra telephone account. Miraculously the fault was fixed by 5.00 that night ensuring access to Demonland. My supplier (not Telstra) was equally astounded.

We do have the occasional victory over the grander forces so dont despair

dpositive I cannot believe the problems I have with the electronic world.

In the last year I have bought a PVR, TV, and two tablet computers.

All of which either expired in short order after purchase or would not work properly.

Modern technology is wonderful when working but a giant pain when it does not.

These guys make the MFC look like the model of good operation.

Have you thought of living in a cave?

There have been days when I thought I was Redleg.

I would just like an even break when I enter the electronics world.

a 100% failure rate is surely not the average.

My wife is much wiser than me when I was complaining about Apple this morning she said

" you woke up alive today didn't you? That is a hell of a start"

Your wife is right, you have had a win already.

Pity she barracks for the Pies

That is her only blemish for an almost perfect mate

Lucky you, a wife with only one fault.

Your bravery is clear, Redleg, but don't go to the level of crazy-brave, and start discussing said faults here ... :)

She has another one that I don't talk much about Redleg.

She picked me!

Picking a Dees supporter for a mate is not considered a fault around here :)

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
