    2 from the first seven was the high point of my expectations pre season Mr. Leg

    Funny what a win does to the reasoning power.

    Now I think we are a rough chance next weekend.

    We were beaten by four goals over there in a practise match.

    Side is more used to each other now and it is at the G

    This could be close.

    Just imagine if we are 3 and 2 after five.

    I hope I don't wake up any time soon.

    Sweet dreams.

    Seriously you cannot expect to beat the Dockers anywhere and in any galaxy, however, we are a different side and hopefully we can be very competitive.

    Then, if we were very lucky and they kicked badly, got injuries and we had the best of the umpiring, well you never know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Then I woke up.

    Read somewhere on one of the threads that Biffen and Bitter were both going to be in town for last night's game...has anyone heard from them since? Did they destroy some new place (since Bitter was banned from the Gat) and get locked up?

    Have we established whether that was BBO on the tele last night with his shirt off, and plenty of flesh, after we kicked the winning goal?

    Well done my Lord, it took a member of the monied and sophisticated class to pick up on that! I was inside the mansion watching on the home cinema ( and sipping a red) at the time of that bizarre occurrence . I could hear the lads watching on the big screen in the barn begin honking and kicking the walls. I thought I'd entered some sort of space/time warp and was watching myself. Then I noticed the shirt was of poor quality and not tailor made. I had a nasty moment though.

    No Earl, not enough studs or make up.

    Not sure when we'll hear from Biffen again! I believe he had to front court over various "matters". Outcome uncertain I would think!

    Was Redleg representing him or was it someone else from the bar?

    Presumably he'll also need someone to do his soliciting for him.

    There is a lot of concern about the undesirable element ruining the convivial atmosphere and destroying the vibe in St Kilda.

    But we at the Gat have a long term plan to bring down rents and remove these Glen Waverley hipster from our happy home.

    No offence to Danby WJ,but he has no idea about Fitzroy St although his office is right in front of mine.

    He has given very few speeches in Parliament about the importance of the Gat to Australian art and culture.

    The only thing he had added in five terms has been about 30 kgs to his midriff.

    I need to stand up for Melbourne ports and get rid of these educated,employed parasites from our streets forever!

    Even when the "fellow Dlander" rate was applied Red was still far too pricey for Biffen and his dodgy credit card. But, as you say there are plenty of others at the bar. You do any pro bono work Jack?

    Presumably he'll also need someone to do his soliciting for him.

    A possible career change for you Doctor?

    By the way,

    On my (formerly) private court matters.

    I was victorious- with no thanks to my learned colleagues on this forum although I do heed their wise words .

    I represented myself,which was a risky strategy, but I had the matter heard in a rural backwater so I had some chance of confounding/ corrupting the judge.

    I am now free to roam the ever emptying cafés of Fitzroy st to ply my trades!

    Given your extensive "experience" with certain aspects of the legal system Biffen, I imagine you would have given a credible, if not quite Rumpole like performance.

    However, one aspect of the matter does leave me curious. What makeover did you undertake to present as a worthy citizen? You surely did not appear in your usual garish, stained and tasteless pimp attire? No one would lend you clothing surely? Did you steal it?

    I happened to have a temporary job dressed as a light infantryman from 1915.

    Having no time to waste, leaving the bayonet at the desk, I dashed into court to face whiskey o'reilly , the country judge known to be better in the afternoon.

    As he stood when I entered, I knew I had made the right choice of apparel.

    of course paying the main witnesses for the crown a visit to "discuss" their evidence at 2am one morning probably helped a little bit too, biffo?

    Biff surely wouldn't have stooped so low. He consorts with people to take care of those sorts of matters.

    biffo doesn't like paying other people wages, mabel. besides, biffo's credo is the less people know the less they can talk

    • CASEY: Sydney

      The Casey Demons were always expected to emerge victorious in their matchup against the lowly-ranked Sydney Swans at picturesque Tramway Oval, situated in the shadows of the SCG in Moore Park. They dominated the proceedings in the opening two and a half quarters of the game but had little to show for it. This was primarily due to their own sloppy errors in a low-standard game that produced a number of crowded mauls reminiscent of the rugby game popular in old Sydney Town. However, when the Swans tired, as teams often do when they turn games into ugly defensive contests, Casey lifted the standard of its own play and … it was off to the races. Not to nearby Randwick but to a different race with an objective of piling on goal after goal on the way to a mammoth victory. At the 25-minute mark of the third quarter, the Demons held a slender 14-point lead over the Swans, who are ahead on the ladder of only the previous week's opposition, the ailing Bullants. Forty minutes later, they had more than fully compensated for the sloppiness of their earlier play with a decisive 94-point victory, that culminated in a rousing finish which yielded thirteen unanswered goals. Kicks hit their targets, the ball found itself going through the middle and every player made a contribution.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
      This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

      After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
