the good thing is the short term memory goes first

this enhances the long term memory so you can enjoy the 50's and 60's over and over

at least for those that were around then

One flaw in your statement... no-one who was really there can remember the '60's... ever!

Not my bubble you're bursting DC... I was simply paraphrasing Robin Williams.

I was only there for 18 months or so, but who knows what Mum and Dad feed me back then?

I remember the 60's well...even as a young kid...When big events were on the TV people just stopped doing what they were doing and watched...you couldn't record TV

The 60's were a wonderful decade and the best thing about it was that people knew it as it was happening!! (Well those that did not take large doses of acid or live on a diet of magic "shrooms!

Yep, I still have great memories of watching sputnik go overhead (a moving dot), of watching the Melbourne Olympics on TV and of sitting up late (or was i early?) for the first satellite broadcast that culminated in the Beatles live in the recording studio performing All You Need is Love. Good times!

And I thought I was made of steel and would live forever.

That the MFC would roll on as a GF winning machine forever.

Reality is very painful at times

Police don't put out press releases every five minutes on active investigations either, unless there is good reason to. It doesn't mean nothing is happening.

Look at the Julia Gillard investigation and the Craig Thompson investigation. Nothing really said while the 'evidence' was being gathered.Its taken a long time to get Thompson into court. Gillard may never be charged but its quite the likely the investigation is still continuing.

Anyone else think Mrs. H is a clone of her husband?

She looks like an Essex girl with a cheap makeover.

Looks like she's had the same facial reconstruction as her husband,.

In my dementia you won't know what is going on in my mind. That vacant look will be me reliving 1964. With a bit of luck 20xx as well.

I still see you Neil Crompton kicking that goal as if it was yesterday

Amazing how a fortnight can fly by without you even knowing it.

and you are so right too Old Dee

Which Gillard investigation are we talking about?

But yes, on Thompson, they've clearly got that right...

People. This is a serious subject. Do we need to lower the tone with personal attacks on the Hirds?

Why not concentrate on what the Essendon programme has done to its players and the consequences of those actions?

did you read...what you wrote ?

Integrity would be a good start. Hey Dank, "make sure you use the good stuff, we are playing Carlton this week", "I take full responsibility for my actions" followed by "we will use every legal avenue to defend ourselves", "when the full story comes out we will be fully clear of any wrong doing". Sorry I am not allowed to comment".

The architect of the program has knifed his extremely well like president, the CEO, the high performance manager, Danny Corcoran - everyone but himself. Tried to knife Demetriou and McLaughlan.

Using Julian Burnside, the commie people smuggler defending lawyer, to claim Hird is "heroic" and that his human rights are being abused.

Refuses to accept any responsibility and holding out for his $1m holiday on full pay.

Hows that for a serious subject. They guy is a delusional [censored]. And for that matter so is his wife. The world they inhabit is rarified. They clearly think they are above everyone else.

I personally can't wait to see him go down in flames.

As for the club. I hope they fold.

Deserves everything he has coming and a lot more.

dont understand the attacks on danks?

it seems that this man has forefilled his obligation to a contract and is copping it in the neck

the footy club EFC are the ones that make a decision on which way they want thier science department to go

people like dank,weapon just provide whats required

its seems everybody wants these men to be the ones left holding the can

it does make the AFL family sleep better when somebody else carries the can

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
