You need one for single malt Rev.

Otherwise you are just getting drunk.

That's the way it's been for a while now. You think I should stop necking the bottle then? Tell you what...if we beat Hwthorn next week I will use two glasses. One for each hand.

Have you got two over there?

I will stick to one glass but the volume might increase a little.

The bottle counts as a glass right?

I'm off to Hong Kong for the weekend tomorrow. Catching up with my son to watch the game - if we can find a bar that screens AFL. Maybe I'll buy a couple of nice glasses and a fresh bottle of something good at the duty free on the way back.

Go Dees!

Perhaps it is because we are a similar age AW.

I like the guy.

On this basis, o Old One, I think the Wise One should join us on the Geriatricity Ladder over on T$/B$? And, by name, so too should you, deeoldfart (Are we there yet? Please, no!)

And on another theme herein, isn't it a great sign of our progress that we're again contemplating single malts instead of cheap reds, or worse. There was a similar - and quickly scotched (:o) - contemplation about this time last year. No more false dawns, I say!

Funnily enough TRAB I drank more good single malt when we were the pits.

It helped ease the pain and convince me there were still fine  things in life.

There are few things that work quite so effectively as single malt. One of the great mood modifiers. I have it on good authority that the bars in heaven are laden with bottomless vats of very fine single malts. Good things await... but only for the faithful. The heart has to beat true.

Perhaps we could start our own coterie group and call it Grumpy Old Men.  My grandkids don't call me pa or granddad.  They prefer to refer to me simply as grumps.

I seriously doubt the MCG is big enough to hold us all iv'a.

But a sterling idea.

Smoking jackets with elbow patches and crystal glass in hand.

That sounds like the correct attire I can just see us all on GF day !

I'd agree with Warren's idea about our improvement, and arrival as a contender, if we can knock over the Hawks next week.

And little would make me happier.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
