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.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
