    Good one HT I like it a lot.

    Hope you had a bet on Iconic Princess who won at Geelong today and Man of Magic ran 2nd at Ballarat Wednesday at his first start. When I am away they do well. IP has now won 3 at Geelong on the synthetic.

    No redleg I did not know they were your horses.

    But that is the story of my punting life.

    Unfortunatly it is still a better story than my success in following the Dees

    [bloody joke. All games except ours being shown live on free to air or foxtel on Gold Coast where I am at the moment. Ours on replay on foxtel at 8.30. Unbelievable.

    Go Sydney, go Carltank (simply because I want Sydney to knock the Aints out in the finals) and most importantly, go Tiges so we can drag out this old chestnut...

    Just had a Hungry Jacks egg muffin and they are not as good as the big yellow M variety. See what this team has done to me, I am writing about breakfast muffins. Oh how I long for the days of the Banana Smoothie.

    Well that is it for 2011. Just to add the icing to the cake, the game cut out on my recording 2.5 minutes from the end. Trade and draft week to look forward to.

    By the way, were the umpires paid employees of Port Power. 28 frees to Port and 13 to us, 6 goals to Port from frees and at least another 2 goals to Port after a Dees free was ignored and a Mark of the Year contender to Howe 10 metres out not paid and then a goal to them on the rebound..

    Well I guess that brings another wonderful season by the MFC to an end.

    And what a wonderful year it was.

    We played on average a lot worse than 2010, 6 - 9+ goal losses vs 2 in 2010.

    We got thrashed by the age old enemy.

    We went into the record books with a 186 point belting.

    We sacked a coach during the year.

    We ended the season with losses to Richmond and Port.

    Our Captain was next to useless for the majority of the year

    and the vice captain could not make the side for the last round through poor form.

    At the finish 13th on the ladder.

    Yes all in all a wonderful year.

    But in true Demon fashion there is always next year and the next year and the next year and the next year!

    If not for the fact that we let Junior go in a messy way, we would be seriously looking at getting rid of our captain and vice captain. Wont happen, but on form it should.

    It astounds me how much can be written about nothing new.

    Its basically I think yes and I think no and that is how it has been since it started. Lot more info on this thread such as horse racing, bananas, frustration with the Dees.

    speaking of which what is the current price?

    believe it or not I had some for fathers day breakfast.

    Present to me by my daughter.

    We had a good laugh when I said Redleg would be impressed.

    They Looked at me as though I came from Mars.

    It took some explaining.

    Then Perhaps I do!

    I know what you mean. I get funny looks when I say to someone I post on a Melbourne FC fan site and enjoy reading it.

    I think bananas are about $9.99 a kilo at the moment.

    Not sure why it is assumed you have to be under 30 to post on a web site.

    Well my present was a bit more expensive than I thought.

    Never thought I would see the day when Bananas would be top of my wish list!

    Really?

    You tell people you post here?

    I've been an administrator of this site for almost six years, and the first time I ever actually told anyone about it (most who know me well figured it out) was about six months ago. I felt like such a retarded dweeb. Will never do again.

    I know your pain...

    My name is rpfc, and I post at Demonland.

    Hello rpfc...

    You have family and friends who love you.

    Maybe Demonland should have a 'Beyond Blue' sticky thread...

    I don't tell them about this per se - say I'm a member of a MFC supporter's group. Much less cringe-worthy.

    I just tell people I'm addicted to meth.

    Much less stigma attached.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
