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.

How are we suppose to fight gay rights, when we are still battling against racism?

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.

i gave up noughts and crosses when a 10 year old singapore kid robbed me blind playing it in a bar at geylang

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.

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
