French is derived from Roman times and Latin as you know, similar to other languages such as Spanish and Italian. French is the language of love good man. It is also the language of diplomacy, science, literature and philosophy. Peasants do not speak French. They speak dialect or indeed speak in few words. Similar to the peasants here particularly those that gather in tribes to watch the Tigers and the Magpies or in SA, Port Adelaide. We also have a few here on Demonland, but who will not be named as we know who they are. Also I value my neck given the importance of the mind body connection. Although, I have to say there are a lot of headless people in these illiterate times of Kali Yuga. For those wanting to find out about Kali Yuga consult Google. The French along with the Indians know all about Kali Yuga. However, I am getting distracted from the main point of my post.   

I will be reporting your outrageous and frankly obscene comments to the Academie Francaise. I hope you are not planning a trip to France anytime soon. 

If I was planning to make love to a beautiful woman, I would want her to whisper sweet nothings in French. Remember Francois Hardy "only you can do it". Yes I know that is English. But lost in translation of course, for the French words are beautiful....que vous pouvez le faire...... and the grunts even better! Knee trembling stuff Moon. 

I suggest you go to Alliance Francaise and then we can converse in French just to raise the tone of posts on this site. 

eloquently put, ernest

of course we already knew moonie was an illiterate hayseed, who may be quite conversant with peasants but is clueless when it comes to romance languages

 

Congrats, DC, on the 20 000th reply?

And to Hemingway on the overall 20 000th post!?

Not my intention as a dead alcoholic writer, and I would have preferred it to be one of the original veterans of this esoteric and simply mad thread. I started reading this thread almost in a voyeuristic way and always curious about its sudden change in direction and subject matter. It was like picking up a book of short stories in which imagination and entertainment was paramount. However, unlike some i decided to take part because I wanted to join the orgy. Very rarely have I failed to be entertained. However, I understand that it is not to everyone's taste, particularly for those whose interest is strangely on football matters and the MFC.

Hare Krishna Emerald. I recommend you purchase a full set of the "Srimad Bhagavatam" translated into English by His Divine Grace A.C, Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the founder of ISKCON or the International Society of Krishna Consciousness. These volumes provide all the answers to life's questions (excluding the date of our next premiership flag), and will keep you reading for the rest of your life indeed eternity. I can guide you along the way if you wish. If you want a flavour of these works without the expense of purchasing all volumes, I recommend a read of the "Mahabharata" which is a revered text with profound spiritual themes and an enthralling narrative culminating in an apocalyptic war. As you know, I do not support organized religion, however, I think that the only answer to the age of Kali Yuga lies in matters of the soul. However, this involves the destruction of this current world as we know it. This includes the destruction of the AFL, the football media and all the wrongs of this wonderful game. Of course, at the end of it all, the MFC and it supporters survive.

I understand now why you died Ernie. You were destitute after spending all your money buying all those vowels.

Thanks for the recommendations Ernest,I have read the Bhagavad Gita before and will get around to the complete Mahabharata after I have read that other epic literary masterpiece called The No T$ no B$ Thread.

I am a proud man, having started the greatest thread ever on Demonland. Over 20000 posts across 800 pages and over 360000 views.

We are on our way to 1000 pages and 500000 views and 30000 posts and not one fight the whole time.

Hopefully other threads will aspire to the high standards we have attained throughout.

Lastly, for those who  think we don't mention enough football, I say "sherrin and faulkner".

Redleg, you still happy with the thread title? When JH signs, can we re-name it?

Sacre blurt! Might as well try to take the red yoke off the MFC jumper! It is true that if we strictly applied the No BS part we might be down to about 20 posts, but that is the fun part! You ain't renaming nothing!

Relax. No need to shout R&B.

Mr. Redleg can have his input.

  • 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.
