I think you are selling yourself short BBO. I would have considered a "good thrashing" to be the exercise of choice for a gentleman like you with er "refined" tastes. The benefits of course will depend on the level of gusto with which it is performed .How many times a week would you participate?

    They really missed an opportunity of parading Langdon and Tomlinson around for the first time when also announcing the Red Bull sponsorship...

    Either that or the players have been consuming so much of it that they’re developing a tolerance to it.

    imo the club should sign magic and fairy dust as sponsors. that way everyone is happy and no one is offended.

    except for those that practice the dark arts and/or have diabetes.

    Neil , one should not compare the epitome of artistic performance with the sweaty results of common “exercise”  !

    "Straining at Stool" is neither an art nor is it a desirable exercise.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      ï»żA hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
