    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.

    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!

    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.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
