And there are a number of occult signs in the picture. Note the goal posts in front of the Ginger bread (witch) house are back to front with the point posts on the inside and goal posts outside.

There’s some cracking threads getting underway today. 

 

They call it the silly season for a reason...

A bit too obtuse for my rapidly diminishing cerebral cortex.

Please, no click bait here. There’s enough of it on the internet, DL Is my sanctuary 

I love the use of the full stop in the title. Very clever.

A brilliant poststructuralist thread which obviously challenges the normal contract between narrator and reader. I would even risk the assertion (though  contrary views are welcomed) that "readers are free to open and close the text's signifying process without respect for the signified"    ( Selden summarising Barthes) 

I completely get this

THIS is a thread... Irony, humour, a little touch af anxiety as we open the thread and then a silly red and blue mess of a cake from one of our favourites.... We laugh and relax ..... and its back to the serious business of life!

I could not be more confident about this year

But that cake is [censored] and obviously his heart is not in it..... He’s gone !!!! Sydney can have him!

 

Phew, not as grim as I thought after reading the header.


i always had a feeling he wasn't fully committed

and his body language consistently told another story

besides he smiles too much

Another piece of incisive analysis, Uncle Bitters. It's up there with your dissection of ENYAW's musings on the value of pick 2 back in the day.

  • 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.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
