I'm unlikely to make it to the Gat for the ,at least immediate, future. The misunderstanding over the Ashley Maddison incident (as mentioned above) is still hovering.

The Lads realise my innocence but a certain other around the Manor remains unconvinced.

i would have liked to have been a fly on the wall when you tried to explain why you had 5 different accounts under different nom de plumes

Why don't you two dh's take a break until Biffen arrives - he claims to have some knowledge of frog language.

talking of frogs - où est-il?

 

L'embeciles sont prendu la maison.

At this time of the year I used to be looking forward to the coming NBL season.

Well two years ago they consigned my team to the dust bin of the sports world so now I do not even have that to look forward to.

Add in the drugies that inhabit the olmypic sports and the fiasco that is F1 and I have little to enjoy.

Not so long ago there was always a diversion from the MFC no longer.

How low can this club make you feel for supporting them?

Just when you think you are at the bottom they establish a new low bench mark.

Next weekend Redleg will be way worse than yesterday.

Freo coming off two loses will make us look like the VFL outfit we are.

100 point loss coming up.

And the good news is that its on Foxtel, so I won't be tempted to watch.

I (modestly, of course) draw your attention to my signature, which I adopted a while ago when contemplating much the same question.

According to the Coach we are under a veil of negativity.

And it is all your fault Redleg and the other 34000 odd members so a lesser extent.

Fancy that all these years it has been our fault.

If only I had known that 20 years ago I could have moved to Hawthorn and led a very positive happy life.

Still feels good to be waking up and contributing to society,

if only others shared my passion for the community!

I suppose you are a contributor to society Biffen. Your drug trade no doubt swells the black economy. Your "workers" in a perverse way, also achieve this and add to the (very) short term happiness of others.

My latest information is that you were seen quaffing red wine in the vicinity of the GAT and passing yourself off as some sort of art critic towards the end of last week.

Hardly a credible position but I also heard that you did a reasonable public impersonation of manneken pis later in the evening

Biffen glad to hear about your community values. I too devote much of my precious time to help the fallen in my community. My tax free trust provides counselling for troubled hipsters, unemployed baristers and failed street artists in my area. We hold regular sessions at Hammer and Tong in the mornings and Friday evening sessions at Madame Sou Sous in Fitzroy. Call it a passion of mine but I feel I should give something, tax deductible, back to my community.

What an uplifting tale Earl Hood! I, perhaps naively, used to think that simply driving the Merc near poor people would inspire them to try and lift their station in life. However,you have demonstrated that good works can turn a profit lives around in surprising ways. . I shall set my accountants to work forthwith.

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

  • 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?

  • 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.
