I was looking for the MFC party and the Paul Roos party but could not see them.

    It's not the home ground that is making it hard for the Dockers, it's the 3 Cats umpires.

    Umpire 28 has basically gifted 3 goals to the Cats, with each one claimed not to be a free by the commentators. He is pathetic. The other 2 aren't much better.

    Pav and Mayne missing 3 sitters hasn't helped.

    Freo should be at least 4 goals up.

    It's a joke

    The problem with Geelong having such a home ground advantage is that it's greater than the home advantage of the team that finished first. And I don't like Hawthorn.

    Cats now in the Hawks side of the draw. One of them won't make it.

    In my wildest dreams I never thought we would get to 250 pages on this thread.

    The "other one" has slowed to a crawl all but burnt out.

    Bananas forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I listened to the press conference.

    I was impressed and it takes a bit these days for the MFC to impress me.

    Between Mr. P Roos and Mr. P Jackson I think we have something that has not existed for a long time.

    We have IMO two people at the top who know what the hell they are doing.

    I now have something to look forward too at the MFC.

    I am however still fairly pessimistic about our team for 2014 and the next couple of years.

    A lot of work is required to make our list into a competitive unit.

    The upside is I believe we now have the crew to achieve it.

    I have hope this Spring and summer.

    Does this translate into less or more single Malt OD?

    We have only just begun, there are so many other topics to discuss on this thread.

    Has anyone discovered why we accepted Clisby's penalty so that he could play for Casey in the finals and now he is not.

    What the MFC does to Casey in September is the eight wonder of the world to me Redleg.

    I still have no understanding of why you would elevate Magner to the senior list and then not play him

    That is certainly strange. Now he will probably be delisted.

    Where is Clisby, is he injured?

    He lost the bet.

    Then I say "C'mon the CARDIES!"

    (until 1981 the West Perth FC was called the Cardinals then changed their name to Falcons)

    I realise that happened TBF

    Do you know why they changed?

    To better build their band.

    As "Cardinal" Red was seen as an old term and a bird of pray "falcons" was more modern term.

    And then there was recruiting. Or as it could be called, "pin the tail on the donkey".

    Funny you should say that BBO. Since my admission to a number of Demonlanders, including yourself, regarding my lack of Scotch knowledge, I've endeavoured to expand my vision marginally. Label 5?

    Baby steps.

    Shiraz is my preferred poison RTG.

    Shhhh there are AFL investigators looking into drugs etc.

    Our offical line must be that we all drink banana smoothies at the MFC.

    :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

    PS does anyone know which team Tony Abbott supports?

    People tell me the MFC as he the type of guy who will give alot to his mates.

    And now we have Roos we need lots of money LOL

  • Quote

    My inside sources tell me the reason Abbot beat Rudd was that half the country voted for some guy called Roos. Go figure.

    So are we going to do something special for our 250 page?

    I suggest a Banana Party

    Everyone must include in their posts the work Banana for a day or so.

    Those that don't must shout a round at the get together

    • 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.
