Litreally just backed us at $6.25.. I knew we'd lose to Hawthorn, for some reason I have a feeling we will push Adelaide right to the line.  Edit: Did anyone else watch Lewis on 360 ? Said in key

Biffen you haven't been peaking in the SA files again have you? 

Can't talk right now-very busy with the chainsaw and the basement if a total mess.

I wouldn't bet on it.

Try 2 nights in the Nairobi Hilton for an unskilled white  Arts graduate to make assessments "on the ground"

Try reading "Lords of Poverty" and you will see how corrupt the charity industry is.

Sorry to wreck your feelings of altruistic generosity.

 

 

 

Thanks, Biffen.  Some perspective:

1.  I give through B1G1.com.  Every charitable project is audited and 100% of moneys make it to projects on the ground.  I agree that the 'industry' is rife with greed, skimming and corruption, so I am really clear about my giving activities.

2.  Been to more S-__Holes than most.  I know there is a frustration that nothing seems to happen.  I like projects that give a hand-up rather than a hand-out.  But who are we not to try?

3.  Your view doesn't ruin my feelings of altruistic generosity.  I give because I can, and I will, in ways that satisfy my benchmarks around this stuff, and I will not give up because the industry is rife with problems, or other people think differently to me.  All part of the fabric of life.  

4.  The Dees won last night.  Go Dees!

And what of you Moonman ?

I put it to Gorgoroth  Id mirror his ideal should we lose 

I.e 50 to Dland if we lose. Some will see that as cynical and i feel magnanimous. Ill front 50 either way.

What of some of you. Who dare cough up 50 if a win...who if we lose ? Who else regardless ?

For a good cause no ? 

Have we all paid up? :)

BUMP... (in the hope it works a second time)

Following on from the last time we towelled up these muppets, AFL 360 lead their Monday night programme with "Statement" with reference to our win in Adelaide. It was clear plaigarism of this thread but I don't think there was too many people who didn't sit up and take notice after this game. Even @Ethan Tremblay vowed to stop writing nasty letters to Goodwin.

A couple of months on and we're now only two games behind the Crows on the ladder so a win now is so crucial in that it will close the gap on another direct top 4 aspirant.

So, when we beat Adelaide this Saturday night, what are you going to do?

The letter was the rocket they needed, you can all thank me when we make finals. And buy me a new membership.

If we beat them again this week, I'll get drunk on the company credit card as I watch the replay on the other side of the world. Bring it on! 

I've done that before.

Claim customer entertainment expenses because of the size of the bar tab when it was just myself either celebrating or drowning my sorrows.

Add another recorded match to my already crowded Foxtel Planner, where it will reside for regular 'between seasons' viewing ...... and hope like hell it doesn't require deletion one of Mrs Deeoldfart's recorded movies.

Pretty much a normal Saturday night.

Nothing like having the Replay on whilst on the job

Stopping only for great pieces of play and Demon Goals

It sucks travelling on your own sometimes, might as well enjoy dinner with "someone" else.

    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 sta

    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

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
