The Leprechaun from The Simpsons will play Gill McLaughlin at Warnambool Races

Demos Roussos or Tony Mokbel will play Andrew Demetriou

As for the main guys, we need help.

The collision is too dangerous to be done be a stunt man, so they are just putting a live rabbit between 2 greyhounds.

As for Jack, look at this link.

Todd had to get Roland in to soften him up a bit.

This can be done on a Napoleon Dynamite budget.

We just need actors for Jack, Lynch and a cameraman.

Neil Mitchell might even open his program with this.

No doubt he will jump on board tomorrow, insisting that the whole world do something symbolic akin to a black power fist pump before the game….

Margaret and David are surely MFC supporters. Anyone want a pirated copy, just PM me and send me a blank beta tape.

Just need 2 actors and a camera(wo)man to take the pressure off the greyhounds.

I agree. Even though I've joined in the chorus of hysteria on the subject, I'm genuinely concerned that this entire saga might adversely affect the performance of the team just as it did a few year's ago when another Jack was victimised by a BS tribunal decision. He's never been the same ever since and we lost our momentum after beating Adelaide by more than 15 goals. Worse still, the alleged victim, a heavily concussed Mr. Dangerfield recovered to play in six days and kicked a suitcase load of goals.There's no justice in the world, we should all shut up, lie back in a supine position and think of England.

That's a good point, and one that I forgot about.

A neurological expert, like Webber or any other neurologist/neurosurgeon, might argue that concussive effects can accumulate and manifest down the track. Don't forget that some players in the past have missed the next week of footy even though they continued to play then and there.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
