Yes this is a part of the season we can be involved in, the off season, as we don't ever seem to be involved in that part that has the finals.

Well tomorrow morning is day 1 of the best time of the year for a Dees supporter.

The pre season is upon us.

What champions will we trade in?

What Future GF winning Champions will we draft in?

Who will be our major sponsor for 2016?

Will the members be our big problem again in 2016?

These and other intriguing questions will be answered over the next 10 weeks.

God I am excited!

Wow OD. You are going off the scale! New blood pressure medication working I hope??

But I'm with you on this being the best time of year for us for over a decade now.

Take care and don't take too many of those little blue pills at once. Think of Mrs OD (hope that's an OK subject) - she might want the 'off' season to be 'on' for quite a while yet.

That's how it was first developed DC - as a treatment for hypertension. But a notable 'side effect' in the initial trials led to it being investigated for erecrile dysfunction. From then on it rocketed away, so to speak.

Well here we are girls and boys welcome to the bright MFC future!

bjDee Mrs OD is fine do not concern yourself although she does barrack for the Pies.

Burn was started mid last week. Ref: ABC reporter that lives in the area.

You are both wrong. BBO was spit roasting one of the lads yesterday and things got out of control. In his drunken Shiraz stupor he forgot to slaughter the poor beast before shoving the rotisserie up its clacker and throwing it on the roaring fire. Of course, the beast panicked and ran off into the local forest with its coat ablaze. The rest, as they say, is history.

Sounds more plausible to me than this fuel reduction burn gone wrong story.

Headline from tomorrow's Romsey Reporter:

"Alpaca's clacker cracker sees local bush wackers knackered".

I wonder if one of the lads has been named Petracca? That would work nicely.

odd spot

just listening on radio to a report on the state of the bushfires. reporter name was alicia burns.

Is Amy Parks still reporting?

Posted (edited)

burn back was started on sunday. ref ch9 news and interview with officials

Typical media, half lies half made up on the spot.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-10-06/home-destroyed-properties-still-under-threat-from-vic-bushfire/6831052

Peter Rau, State response controller

She said she was "angry" it escaped the controlled burn-off.

"Very angry, yes. Very angry. It's been going since Wednesday or Thursday last week, it took off on Saturday again.

"[The] CFA had to come and put it out and this [Tuesday] morning it just flared up again...it was just too late. And the wind was just horrendous."

True Red. Only problem I see with such a cunning plan is that the ones with poor disposal usually have good work ethic, and the ones (one?) with bad work ethic have good disposal.

We might need to watch a few more episodes of Blackadder to come up with a more cunning plan. Something that "Is as cunning as a fox what used to be Professor of Cunning at Oxford University but has moved on and is now working for the U.N. at the High Commission of International Cunning Planning".

So cunning you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
