I actually saw their 2nd last gig before they split first time at Horden Pavilion in Sydney around 96-97. 

Also saw Audioslave at same venue! I lived in USA when Superunkown  was released and loved it. Badmotorfinger had been on high rotation on cassette in my car for 2 years prior! 

Epic. I was a tiny bit too young in 96-97 (missed Tools epic show at Festival Hall, Presidents, same place and that epic BDO with Nirvana, SG etc) and missed SG in Melb, but Caught CC at Metro where he played AS and SG and solo stuff (I think I had a media pass and have some photos somewhere ) and Audioslave but nothing compared to SG

    Just their skills!  If they didn't have Whitfield....in the words of BT "Boy oh boy"

    Yes just the most important part of footy isn’t going well. They can’t kick. Or take marks. No worries.

    Mummy gives the Giant's a heartbeat. See, I told you all they should put Mummy forward and bomb it on his head 10 pages ago.

    You were correct Chook.  They should've put an extra on baller in the middle, given up the ruck contests and played the big Mummy forward as suggested

    Playing Geelong worries me.

    Last time they didn't have Touhey and Duncan and both have been solid so far for them.

    Wasn't it 32 pts a couple of weeks back? :)

    Yes, but Geelong were playing against a TEAM then;  this week they are against a mob of high draft picks playing for themselves.

    They need to hit some people 

    Selwood did. Raised his elbow in a fendoff. Heaps worse the what Toby Greene did a few weeks ago to Dangerfield and got suspended.

    We all know it won't happen.

    Geelong has had a easy run in their backline and facing very mediocre pressure up forward. Dees by 30+ Friday night

    I would like to see that Rohan knocked into next week. He is a filthy little rat.

    Remember I had a yr 12 exam in 96 and I spent the night before tabbing JCP. On cassette. Stop rewind play. Lol.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
