hi all,

Anyone know if the site is down and what's going on? Does anyone care?

I care.

I like to shake my head at the resident lunatics, Ding and HHNF.

Almost zero football content, but they make me feel better about myself.

Now that Ding bloke isn't a bad guy (isn't he your twin brother?) but the other one, that's another story.

Looks like they have gone into a time warp.

Maybe Dr Who invited them to a ride in his tardis.

Bluey is their only hope.


I occasionally flick the channel over there for some yucks. Bluey is good value but honestly can't tell sometimes if he's taking the pish. Rivvo's a good read, Dee_Flower is the site's resident arch-pessimist and TGR their sanctimonious know-it-all.

Maybe they'll all gravitate over here now. Should be interesting. Like picking up a dozen or so quality players from a dying club's list.

But would they get a game here in a metaphorical top 4 side?

Yuh, according to the site banner our next game is against Footscray. We have Neita playing for us so that should help...

Don't get me wrong I like the 'Ology boys but they're the Casey Scorps of MFC footy forums!

* edit ... to answer your question ... definite starter. Chuck me the forward pocket, would cause all sorts of trouble.

Well, our own MFC doesn't have a full list of current directors on its website; unlike the 'ology volunteers, there are people at MFC who are paid to attend to such "front of shop" stuff.


Speaking of other demon forums and posters, I often lurk on big footy purely to read biffenators weekly match previews. Comedy gold, what a legend!

Hi Rob.

yes, of course he is my brother. I still think he sounds half crazy when he is tearing into the other nutter.

You ought to hear the way he talks about the bloke in person. omg

Anyway, i just wish the site owner would hand it over to someone so it can be fixed for good, as it has been dying a slow death for the last couple of years.

Yes it's a shame and a pity that it is in the current state. It wouldn't surprise me what Ding says about him I probably say the same myself, him and that other one IRW are a reason not to post there, not the only ones though.. Might catch up with the pair of you at a game soon are you going out to Casey at all now? Give him my regards.

It's not as active as this site but it does have some quality contributors.

To add to those named above I would add Stinga and Robbie87. Both are smart, non panicky and thoughtful.

DeeFlower on the other hand is not just their resident pessimist but is a waste of time and space. I see her tag and I taste lemons. Weird and not worth reading.


Would have thought the more Melbourne sites the better, there are the same amount of nuff nuff's on this site as with Ology.

The posters on this site are a little less personal and generally younger. With Ology I found that most threads finished up in a fight and most of the time it was "score settling" and had nothing to do with the topic.

I post here and don't go to bed with a headache.

Would have to agree with you on that side of things RobbieF

don't worry the mods will ensure that any of the value of those type of posters is immediately censored, its for our own protection

bit sad really.....i quite enjoyed the odd foray into 'ology land

bit like having a red headed sister

I find myself just opening the page and sitting there, thinking about the place. Kind've like a serial killer returning to its dumping ground.

 

Never ventured to 'ology - this site and Big Footy is enough as it is.

I dont get back there much now, although I was a screaming mess in my folks house for the essedon win. A full bottle of Johnny Double Black, and 2 Zantac got me through the nerves.

I'm working in the Solomon Islands, on a 2 week on/off roster, and just bought myself a house in the Philippines. (near Abu Sayef country in southern Mindanao) Nothing better than relaxing a my Kubo, with a dozen filipinas, while necking a few litres of cold Red Horse.

Unlikely that I will be back for a full break, until August, or even September. Will let you know if Ding and I are about.

faulty.

And to all on here, if 'Ology folded, you would certainly pick up a few quality posters. There are a few who have great training info, and very good opinions on matters football.

Even the self-centered jerkoffs like TGR are actually good reading occasionally, if you can put the "look at me" to the side, and read the info itself.

I would hope the site gets up and going, in a new format soon, because without new members, it is doomed, as the site nutters just wont let things go and keep to a topic, without slagging off and getting aggressive.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
