Hmmmm... sitting here in my abode in Europe with a raging hangover from last night. I thought it might be amusing to drink large quantities of grape juice from my latest vineyard find. 
 

a small place in the Rhône valley to the north of Avignon called Domaine Rouge Bleu. They produce a Grenache called Lunatique. Seriously, how could I not consume vast amounts?

Hmmmmm,you'll have a raging hangover after this game tonight!!!

 

I reckon it will be 17 seconds in,when i scream FFFFFFFAAAAARRRRRRKKKKKK

    How is it a lame duck game though? There's plenty to play for and we can still technically make it.

    I can only assume you're quite a young chap BenF.  I do admire your optimism. 

    A decent quality shiraz should do the trick.  There's still time.  Give it a decent breather about now.  Then a good old scoffing about half hour prior to the bounce.  This should help dull the forthcoming torment a little. 

    After that it's just a matter of topping up as you go.  This will ensure the numbness continues till well after the final siren.

    NOT reading this game day thread after the bounce will also assist here.

    Regards

    Sounds like a good find CHF, lovely Syrah in that part of the world too.

    What are the chances we turn up for the fight tonight? Who knows really. GWS will look to pressure us for long enough...they will know our guys will toss it in if it gets really hard.

    If we bring the can't be f%$&#d's right from the start then it will get ugly.

    Are you taking orders CHF? 


    The mood/tone of this thread seems more gloomy than usual tonight.

    However, the optimistic Bitter would like to remind you ,that it is September and we are still in the game!

    How often has that happened in living memory?

    beautiful part of the world Rab. A friend of mine grew up in Nairn. Mustn’t be too far from where you grew up?

    Hi DD. Fraserburgh, or as we say in our local dialect, The Broch. Like a lot of small coastal towns it's seen better days but the beach is a cracker with a big sand dune the locals call Tiger Hill.

    It's only ruined if you harbour expectations Wise.

    And if anyone here is going to harbour some expectations after the last two games, it will be me!

    Seriously though, I'm not expecting anything out of this contest.

    Did he do a hammy while warming up with the boys, GC?

    Likewise. It's been a depressing rainy day so this will be the cherry on the top no doubt.

    Can we take bets on when the first “ sack Goodwin post will come “.

    TBH looking at our side I just can’t see how we can win this. It is a very ordinary side, at least on paper.

    Lucky the rest of the day was so great. Sunshine, hanging out with family and friends, going out for coffee.... wait I’m in Melbourne, never mind.

    OK peeps. Let's get this over with. I trust we're all sufficiently fortified enough to endure the next couple of hours. If not then you've only yourself to blame.

    What is the real kicker is that the weather up there tonight is perfect.  Just rubbing salt in the wound.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
