One of my favourite covers of all time

Love this! Funny how you can not like a song much until you hear a superb cover of it.

    And that song Calling You from Baghdad Cafe is so good! Another film from that era was the Coen Brothers effort, Raising Arizona.

    Raising Arizona is a great move. As are most Coen Brothers movies. Fargo and No Country For Old Men are my faves.

    I always imagine, that is exactly how it would have started... some dude/dudette, with some words, on a guitar...before production.

    Pies first gamer, Irish recruit Anton Tohill is son of Anthony Tohill who played a game for us in the 90’s. He is listed as 200 cm! Interesting to see how he goes. 

    Mmmm.  So just a few games short for a father and son pick for us then - no doubt Scott would  have a public gripe though had dad play for the Cats.

    And then it usually goes south at that point.

    Not sure if I've seen that one. Will put it on the to do list for a rainy weekend.

    One of the worst openings to an Olympics ever!!  I didn't know Beatlejuice was hired as a choreographer!

    Back to the footy

    It’s so good! I guess lockdown’s not all bad: you get the opportunity to discover new stuff to watch.

    Just watched a few minutes only as I really DGAF re the result.  (We need to only think  of winning our games and ignore the rest, given that we are still currently on top.  Any other mindset will lead to another season of MFCSS disappointment).

    Has the distance required for a mark been reduced to 8 meters, without the public being informed?  And holding on after a mark is apparently now ok. 
     

    7 commentary again awful.  “Was that deliberate? Oh, didn’t go out??”

    Correction - 4 meters, it seems.

    Just watching the opening ceremony of the Olympics, like so many other events without crowds it just isn’t the same. Plus the amount of people involved it makes it look like it’s a dress rehearsal. Feel sorry for those involved, their opportunity at being a part of something special and it’s (yet another thing) ruined by the pandemic.

    Such an upbeat Ceremony. Great to see a nod to macrame at the start

    I swear to god I’m losing the will to live watching this opening ceremony. And then the other option is watching Port vs Pies. 
    Life is so hard.

    I wonder what the Japanese theme for the torch lighting will be?  Kamikaze pilot??

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
