I didn't attend the footy today nor did I even think about it until about 6.00 pm this evening. Today I had the privilege of attending a "special olympics" swimming carnival. Most of the competitors were Down Syndrome the the others had ID's of various types.

The highlight for me was a 50 metre race where 3 0f the competitors had finished and the fourth was about 3/4 of a pool length behind. The crowd cheered the last person on and, as she came near the finish, the other three who were still in the water began to clap.

I am a hard hearted [censored] but this made me cry. Actually writing about it now is making me cry.

It puts life in perspective.

You are a big softy bbo in more than just girth.

Good to see this thread taking on a more enjoyable and sharp direction.

    A bit more red-blooded spirit would be a lot better ... :blink:

    Actually don't think we lack spirit R and B.

    The lack of skill is our problem.

    It is difficult to pull your socks up if you do not have any on.

    True, OD. But one of the constant frustrations of being a Dees supporter is seeing the difference between the best and the worst of the current list. Some will struggle to make it at AFL level, but if they all put in to the best of their ability each week, whatever that is, then .... well, that would be different ...

    Something in me tells me that a sash is not a good look right now ... perhaps just playing like demons would be best. :blink:

    You want us to play that badly?

    See below, Perth's nickname is also the Demons.

    Surely we can do so much better?

    Perth is 8th on a 9 team ladder.

    They not won their last flag in the late 70's and I don't think they played in a Grand final since that time.

    Probably do well at clearances, and great at shepherding, but will struggle on the lead and not strong overhead. A real bugger to shift from the bottom of the pack, though ...

    Then he should be worth $10,000,000 over the next 9 years.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
