I did something I have never done as well Redleg I did not intend to listen / watch the game.

I heard the score on ABC news and got what i expected.

Like you the MFC gives me nothing but pain now.

Never in 53 years have I ever been in this position, even in the dark days of the seventies did I feel remotely close to this.

I wake every day now and half wish to pick up the HUN and find we have returned our licence.

God delivery me.

Saw the last round of 1997 between us and Freo on Fox Footy the other day and we belted them. We had a crap season and they were going for the finals. Look at the two clubs now, it's so sad.

It was not that long ago people were saying the Dees would fall apart without Hogan. Glad to see they were wrong. I tend not to follow ex players as I lose interest once they leave the club. I mu

It is like a nightmare from which you cannot wake!

Just keep drinking OD. The pain does go. Eventually.

After 53 years of supporting this club Bbo I seriously doubt there is enought single malt in Scotland.

Have you tried other spirits?

Cognac. Might as well go out in style.

For what it is worth I will share this piece of useless info, I have never had a full shot of scotch, cognac, brandy or a full glass of champagne. I have only tried them and disliked them and never repeated the exercise.

Is there any spirit / liqueur you like Redleg?

Some of my friends think Cognac is fire-water. It does take a reasonable mouthful to lubricate and get over the volatility before you can really appreciate it. Edited by maurie

My experience ( going back a long time ago) is you need to start with very good Scotch or Cognac.

The Very Good stuff is more like a liqueur. Poor quality tastes like kerosene.

Not that I have drunk much kerosene!

My grand daughters also arrive in about an hour for friday dinner with Nana and Pop.

I am off to Sandown tomorrow to see my horse Briefed hopefully win the 7th race. Can't bring myself to go to the footy until there is some change or we play a non top four side.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
