Actually you are right, couldn't figure out who was missing, thanks, no he didn't, old age, need the prompting

Only fluff chap, with Dean Kent, Nev and Fitzy,..and of course Salem about the soccer...... Nathan Jones had his game face on

So we can discount the comment on the MFC Supporters page on Facebook?:

"VINEY OUT - Julian De Stoop (Fox Sports News) has reported Jack Viney is out for the next four to six games after scans revealed a small fracture in his leg after the GWS game. A massive blow to the Dees midfield, with Nathan Jones, I hear, also a chance to miss."

Saty - did Howe get through most of the session?

And did Jetta train fully despite the head knocks gag?

Yes Howe was ok, looked a bit more like his old self today, very sharp

Nev is fine, spoke to him afterwards, they take head knocks seriously now, enjoyed the joke with the Cowboys helmet, but being Nev, spotted me with the camera on his way around and took helmet off so it didn't appear on Twitter, he has to take the concussion test each day, got through training fine....I told him to stop painting the target on his forehead before a game

Going off topic there chap and nailing your colours to the mast, any opinion of Zeffirelli or Polanski, two of my faves

not off topic, saty, someone else brought it up

don't know why you categorise zeffirelli and polanski with fellini, very different cats

zeffirelli and polanski are both very talented and i generally enjoy their work despite one being a centre-right senator and the other having rolf harris moments - lol

I was lucky to grow up in Liverpool in the 60's and go to a progressive Grammer School with teachers who wanted to teach iif you get my meaning, and an uncle who was in the Merchant Navy and brought wonderful films and music back with him, so therefore my tastes are wide ranging, in music from early Baroque through to some Death Metal and films from Buster Keaton to Manga

early baroque ?

You know what they say - if it ain't baroque, don't fix it.

Zeffirelli was more your classical director while Polanski could go off on some pretty weird tangents (particularly in the years just after the Manson Family murder of Sharon Tate). Thought he really lost the plot though in his version of Macbeth... give me Kurosawa's Throne of Blood any day of the week.

Yes I agree I thought Fibular was Latin for not telling the truth

Fibular Bells by David Oldfield (former One Nation member and Hanson lover - literally)

I don't even bother asking why during the season, because I will never get the truth

Had heard he had a fracture but wanted to wait and see if he was out for sure. Apparently Cale Hooker has a similar injury but is playing on it.

Forgive me I must be mistaken for thinking this was a website to discuss football and in particular the MFC. It's like going to a website about bullfighting and finding its a porn site. by the way fellini is one of my favourite directors. His artistry far exceeds the other two. He will be remembered long after the other two are forgotten. but best watched in an elevated state.

Reminds me of a funny quote, "I went to a fight the other night and an ice hockey match broke out"

I was obviously too grounded for Satyricon last night. I am a Kubrick fan myself.

Kubrick is not to my taste ManDee. You must be a hardcore movie fan with eclectic tastes or a sicko. I have to be very drunk to watch Kubrick or simply close my eyes.

Sorry, I was on the Tubular Bells Mike Oldfield story line. I missed the Mike Oldfields Fibular as in deceit story line.

When words fail, literally.

PS:- I would deny that too.

Perhaps eclectic movie sicko? You can listen to a Kubrick movie, the soundtracks are awesome especially the later movies.

Edit 2001 is pretty good too.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
