Wife and Mother-in-Law in the room nattering at each other.

Two year old bouncing ping pong ball off every hard surface in sight.

Have pushed volume up - am expecting serious repercussions but will persevere.

    Was that you BBO? They showed footage of a dees supporter getting his shirt off.

    Who ever that was is a legend, as James Brayshaw says "get around him"

    Loved that the bloke wasn't content with having his shirt unbuttoned and his belly exposed, he had to pull his shirt off and let it all hang out. Good on him!

    It sounds like Roos has worked wonders in terms of team morale since arriving. The skipper is clearly a massive fan. Great to hear.

    Spew.


    In other news, Nathan Jones is a proper captain. That's nice to know.

    Speaks well thesedays does Nathan.

    A real 'leader of men'. It is good to see Roos come in and put things right.

    MFC is a club players WILL want to come to. I would want to come play at MFC if I was a player (trying not to be bias).

    Not enough supporters in attendance to do that.

    I reckon I saw that bloke in the bullring after the game and he opened up his shirt there and was showing off a small Melbourne symbol tattooed on his chest.

    The thing I really took out of the interview was Jones talking about how just getting the footy was not having a good game and Roos has been disappointed with some of his higher possession games in the past. They even used to disagree about if he had played well or not.

    I had heard as recently as early last season that Jones was one of the poorest at the club at blocking for others as per the stats our internal statisticians do. Obviously this has been rectified and he is leading from the front and Roos is building a culture of good habits.

    I liked the bit about reading up about Jordan and becoming a better captain and lifting the team to another level.

    Let's hope he gets to show it off more often than not this year Wrecker45.

    A much more tasteful version on Joffa's golden jacket.

    Indeed. Perhaps should get in touch with BBO to fine tune the style somewhat.

    It's on youtube. Can't link ATM, but search up 'AFL game day 26 04 2015 PDTV x264'. There are a bunch of other footy shows on the channel as well.

    Watching Jones develop has been one of the best things during my time watching Melbourne. When he came to the club he was shy but humble and we really didn't know what he would be. He's had to work his proverbial off to get where he is and deserves every bit of the plaudits he's getting.

    He's not the best player in the AFL, but he is one of the best leaders in the league.

    [EDIT] Also funny to remember the first time he was on a tv show. He came on to the footy show as one of the players just in the crowd for a quick 5min spot. He was so nervous he started sweating and you could see it dripping down his bald scone! To Sam Newmans credit he did try to help him through it.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
