How much coin is Lumumba costing us?  Guess we didnt learn our lesson with Dawes.

We should make a play for Cloke and complete the trifecta 

True re Dawes (perennially peroneally injured) and Lumumba (headless chook) but BenKen probably hasn't been on our list long enough to have caught the dreaded acardiosis (absence of a heart) but given time at out club I expect he will soon enough.

    Does anyone know who was supposed to have been on McDonald-Tipungwuti because he just ran riot from what I saw and heard.

    1. After making a point of saying before the first round they were focused on picking only fit players they seemingly picked an underdone Brayshaw (though that's confusing - after all he dominated in the VFL and racked up 30 plus possessions) and a 'tired' Oliver

    Where are you getting this number from? I believe he only got it 17 times and questioned if he has the runs on the board to warrant a game prior to the the Essendon game.

    Same, it's now almost Thursday and teams will be announced and I couldn't care less. It's weird.

    im sure it will change come the weekend but at the moment I'm just over this club 

    It's only round 2 and I haven't wanted any piece of footy this week (except on here) - haven't wanted to watch any of the footy shows, 360, Footy Classified, On The Couch, Open Mike haven't wanted to read any of the papers, none of it. Just the thought of it is turning my stomach.

    That is because according to them, that was the win that will turn Essendon's season around. They played so well to bet us. They fail to mention that we played a flaccid member.

    I'm really not convinced we were "tired" or at least significantly more tired than EFC.  When you are not focused, not willing to work hard, not up for the fight then you may look "tired" but I'm really struggling to see it as anything more than playing with the wrong attitude and willingness to work hard.

    Well , lucky there's much more to life than footy, especially this mfc shlt kind.

    Might come back Monday...might not

    A decent red awaits at home

    Beyond disappointed, beyond incredulous, not evennumb.

    I've reached comfortable indifference, just like the players.

    Bye for now

    Tried to PM you beeb.

    It certainly does to me ManDee. I was there a long time before you though. Matriculated in 1956.

    It would mean a lot mate. I read on this forum that Beeb played footy at the same school as Andrew Moir. He said it himself. That makes three of us now.

    Is that enough to form a secret society? Were you before Spike & Boof?

    • 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.
