Could say the same about your makeup...

I'm very touched that you are paying such close attention to my makeup. It is ,however, not "the same". Makeup is an artform that requires a deft touch. Your colouring in with a Derwent while biting your tongue to aid concentration is no doubt challenging for you, but hardly comparible.

You got him a beauty there mate.

BBO will never get up after that knockout blow.

Your wingman, mjt, is probably Rofl.

Now now Biffen, if you're going to play with the other kids don't be so possessive with your toys...

Well you certainly are the Ken Done of that art form then my friend...

Gay man says and asks Barn Dee "My round is next, Barn, would like a beer" BarnDee says "thanx mate"

Gay man walks off to the bar

BarnDee turns around to his straight mate as says "did you see that? He just hit on me"

His straight mate says"no chance Barnee even those gays have standards".

In the West ... it is commonly estimated that HIV/AIDS is close to 50 times more prevalent in the gay community than in the rest of the population.

So no, it's not bullsh1t. It's the reality. It's not a statistic you can sweep under the rug.

A Lesbian is far less likely to be infected by HIV/AIDS than a straight man. Research the stats

Why are we talking about HIV/AIDS?

Yeah that's what we really need more moronic supporters! Because we all know that a lack of empathy and intelligence equals PASSION!

NO!

more loud supporters create atmosphere & market sales in merchandise... and more excitement from opposition supporters, which turns into more TV exposure.

not to mention more cheer for the players to get motivated by. (Yellow & Black) or are you deaf to the sound of common sense?

and you're the Chopin of chauvinism.

How dare you knock my mates make-up.

Just when were we getting somewhere with Brocks sister.

Next thing you'll be discussing lesbians again.

Don't look for logic where there is none... You also missed the 8 pages about Islam and the new topic in this thread of outdoing each other with snide remarks...

I hope you're this funny in real life, oh the laughs that must be had around the transistor on family board game night.

Now you've done it. You mentioned that which cannot be mentioned and, as a result........

...... Stuie has gone and dusted of his sense of humour. Unfortunately it also needed a grease, oil change and update. But maybe one day he'll give me a stitch. Keep it up.

For some of Stuies jokes, you just have to BE there, and we aren't.

It's unfortunate for him but as any comic genius will verify , it takes years to perfect your act.

He will be ready for the amateur night in about 2313.

What on earth are you on about?

the need for more vocal supporters,

the need for wider demographic in our supporter base,

less stuffiness,

less clapping & more yelling @ games,

etc,

we have a long way to go to catch the Tigers & the Pies, re barracking for a team... we are still asking for permission to stand, when a wave comes past.

Fully agree Dee-luded. We don't even sing the song well.

Yes good point. I'm convinced now. If only we had a higher percentage of racist, homophobic, misogynist red-necks as fans our song would be sung with much more ferocity which in turn would result in more wins and the promised land would be ours!

Yes! And that lot can play the banjo as well!

You guys have your wires crossed a bit.... Binman is saying that there's some poor "Collingwood like" comments in this and the Jurrah threads, Deeluded is saying it would be great to have the same kind of enthusiasm, passion, and "one-eyedness" as Collingwood supporters. They are totally different points. Both are correct in their individual statements IMO.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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
