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?

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.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
