You can't be serious. "The dog bit the man" had 5 words but only 2 nouns. It has one verb and two definite articles as well giving a total of 5 words. Tel me you don't think that a noun and a word are the same...

Garrr!!! There is no difference. It's like knowing the difference between a rooster and a chicken!

I thought Nicos kicking had improved tonight.

Don't get me wrong he still needs to work on it but there was improvement.

Glad to hear he kicked better tonight DemonOx. I didn't see, just heard the game. Nicho would really step up if he worked hours daily on his kicking. Remember how lousy Howes kicking was before this year? Howes kicking is fine now. If Nicho could do that...

A rooster is a noun right, and chicken is probably a word?

Have I learned well today or what? :)

I love the English language, and enjoy a bit of grammar, but please.... we just won a game for goodness sake.

That's either hilarious or very very embarrassing.

EDIT: How 'bout those Dees, eh?

Even though his kicking has improved its his major flaw in his game.

All other aspects of his game i really like and I am sure he is working on it.

He's already got the engine and speed, now for his kicking to come up to the same level.

Dees great. Your knowledge of grammar not so good

I am rapt, mainly because i seem to have some sort of psychic connection with Neil Craig.

He is playing the players in exactly the positions i have been wantingthem to play for ages.

nicholson as a tagger and Watts up forward mainly.

Fitzy is edging ahead in the race for a regular spot against Pedersen and Sellar.

I actually thought his decision making tonight was pretty sound and his skills had improved notably. His confidence is growing along with the rest of the team.

Jaded used the term r$$ted. When I did that I got banned for a week.

She probably used the term in a proper and descriptively-correct context.

A rooster is male and a chicken is female isn't it chook!!!

U should know CHOOK!!

A hen is female. A rooster is male. They're all chickens.

And yes, I SHOULD know. And I do.

Again, how 'bout those Dees?

Posted

This might sound crazy but that last quarter might be good for them. The game is never won.

Agreed. We should have been further ahead at three-quarter time, and seemed to relax in the last quarter, thinking we had it won. To the Dogs credit, they kept coming and almost pinched it. The fact that we held on makes it a highly significant lesson, thankfully with a happy ending -- never, ever, slow down or take it easy. Go Dees!

Mate there are a few positions going at the Dees at the moment, maybe u should apply for assistant coaches role!!!

I know mate but u made me laugh.

Don't be a smart arse I got your point and I understand what u are saying but hey it could have been worse we could have lost.

Yes we had a big lead, yes they kicked a bag full against us like the other teams u have mentioned above but we WON

We have to enjoy it for what it is and work on the bleeding goals side of the game.

who's the smart ass u sounded like a smartass in your 1 st reply to my post, you sounded simple with your 1 st reply, by the way i am happy with the win, just pointing out one of the teams weakness

Can we mathmatically still make the 8??.......yeah yeah ok...ha a win!! Who would have thunk it!

Those Dees are awesome Chook but now I'm worried, WTF have I been eating all my life, Hen's or bloody Chickens??

I don't for a second understand the Nicho hate.

Here we have a kid who isn't afraid to take the game on, is the fittest on the list and has never to be questioned desire. He's going to make mistakes but that's all part of developing kids. I also believe his skill execution will improve when his team mates have the work ethic to spread into space.

Support the young lads. They're out future.

There you have it folks.

It's because Neil Craig isnt an idiot like Mark 'I wouldn't do anything differently' Neeld.

I liked that fact that Watts took the critical mark in the last qtr.

Showed leadership and strength imo

U smart ass, me smart ass we all smart asses.

Agree though its something we need to work on along with a few other things but hey it could have been worse.

You've probably chewed your way through quite a few Capons. Hens are useful egg-suppliers, a C0ck is less-useful.

Not getting ahead of myself and I realise a lot depends on what happens over the final 9 games or so, but I hope we keep Neil Craig as coach. He is already showing he is building something to work on. Bringing in a new coach next season means reinventing the wheel yet again to another coach's philosophy and style. As long as we remain competitive and win a few more games, and the players like playing for him, I think we are on a read winner here. .

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
