anzac day the actual reason for trip.

cows out to DRY atm. calves on the way,last chance week off.

Now jazza I have a bone to pick with you.

In a time when I am having trouble mustering any enthusiasm for the MFC or AFL at the top level

I take exception to that line.

There is nothing wrong with my hips.

If you had said a brain transplant then you would have been in order.

After all I have supported the MFC through the last fifty years of crap that must show something is not right in the head.

Even someone with half a brain would have noticed and under taken treatment some time back.

If I know who I am on Friday I will look forward to your visit and If I don't tell me I barrack For Hawthorn when you call in.

No visit to Melbourne is complete without a night at the Gat jazza.. it's a 'cultural' thing

You really should try to book a room, even if it's just for the hour.

You know the rootine well Grape. You have to take care with Biffen and his girls though - their clock tends to run rather quickly. Like some taximeters in Ho Chi Minh city.

How funny would that be Mo!

A touch of the political campaign of Mal Maninga.

None of them involving transportation.

What a bunch of ignorant peasants you are. When in SE Asia the palanquin is the only way to travel. You have to give the bearers a good thrashing though. Lazy buggers.

Seems a little antiquated.

There are such things as tasers these days.

I am green with envy Redleg.

Every time I have a banana I will think of you sunning yourself in some lovely spot well away from the Melbourne winter and the MFC.

WJ raised an interesting issue with me last night while we were out dining with our SWMBO.

Why do we seem to be the club that is forced to wear alternative strips so often?

There are other clubs that seem to clash more but still wear their club jumper.

there is probably a tv exec at ch7 who prefers melbourne's away strip to our regular strip

i think the afl outsourced this stuff to ch7 a few years ago :unsure:

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

  • NON-MFC: Round 08

    Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
