Great to see good people present this sacrilegious breach of our game in laymen's terms so that even the mediocre Media and the awful AFL can even understand the extent of their failings and do their penances.

Sorry to query you, but do you seriously think that the AFL will understand, or if they did, admit to, their failings? Or do any penance?  

Like so many powerful people in powerful institutions, their power has corrupted them and they will just bully their way through life, pandering to and promoting  the rich and famous regardless of truth or justice.

Most posters know why i present "carry on" here to the attention of posters and "sundry". I agree that it is most likely fruitless but hopefully the Game will become better if  ironically players become ill. How sad for us all.

Really!

I tried google translate via Spanish and this is googles take.

Most of the posters know why this "move" here to the attention of the posters and "strange". I agree that the most likely less fruit but hopefully the game will be better players if ironically sick. How sad for all of us.

Well that makes about as much sense, certainly no less sense, than the original. 

Or for that matter this:

معظم الملصقات أعرف لماذا هذا "التحرك" هنا انتباه الملصقات و "غريب" ل. أوافق على أن أكثر الفواكه أقل احتمالا ولكن نأمل أن المباراة ستكون أفضل اللاعبين إذا المرضى من المفارقات. كيف حزين بالنسبة لنا جميعا.

I thought that the diversion to the Holy Roman Emperor and the discussion of Caligula's horse was fascinating but this latest dialogue has taken the thread to almost Twin Peak level

By the way who really did kill Laura Palmer? I kind of got lost in the Indian Smoking Lodge (or whatever it was)

Mental health is a far far more serious issue than illicit or PE drug usage.

not if it was brought on by drug use - horse/cart

Can be a bit of a circular thing this.

A lot of times people with mental health issues self medicate.

Or drug use can bring on a mental health issue.

Whichever it is 'Andrew', one is not more serious than the other.

They are both a major issue in our society as a whole not just sport or football.

Think he needs to stay with Craig Lambert for a few days .

A few nights out with Dusty and Jake can take their toll in the off season.

According to etiquette, and going to the first poster first, i deliberated over this last post of mine, with some degree of complete inebriation. 

Aside from that (inebriation) explaining everything about the above post, it is meant to say if anybody in power reads our opinions on things, you like to think that it would do some good sometimes, or else Footy is buggered.

Sorry i took so long to respond....

Kudos to daisy for unraveling the mysteries of your rambling tome, and kudos to you for sobering up and remembering your line of thought.

That AFL really know when to make a decision. Soon, the adverb of choice providing no information whatsoever. Or to be precise the next week or so.

Gil,"Our team is working through it with ASADA, the right way forward and the process for that. Clearly it's something that a decision needs to be made sooner rather than later and I'm optimistic (it happens) in the next week or so," McLachlan said on Wednesday.26th

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
