    This is all bit strange. Surreal even.

    Footy on a Wensdy night .... and the main game of the round at that !!!  Preceded , of course, by the grand 'unfurling" in front of a monster crowd. Plus it's been a long time since your poor old Uncle Bitter has sat his fat [censored] at the 'G.

    Despite a couple of outs, we should have the Bullies covered but I won't be punting the maid's wages because I reckon the dogs will come at us very hard. A good first up test.

    Dees by 19.

    PS. The maid's wages shall be squandered at taverns en route.

    It’s come around so quickly. Feels like only yesterday I was ugly crying into my champagne watching us lift that premiership cup.

    Went for a run this morning and came home minus my left wireless earbud (only bought them on Monday 🙄).

    Saw my son had messaged me overnight to tell me Scott Hall (aka Razor Ramon) has passed away. He was our fave wrestler back in the day. 😢

    Locked myself out of the house (again) so had to wake my teenage son, which is never pleasant before 10am. 
    But it’s all good since whenever I have the bad luck coming in threes thing happen on GameDay… Dees win! 
    Also, this from today’s HS…

    After listening to ‘sound the alarm’, he was not great in his post match.  At least we know they value uncontested marks…..

    Demons by 34 points.  

    Close to half time, then we slip away.

    No 50 m penalties for upsetting the delicate sensibilities of the larvae (cant say maggot any more), that point was made in the preseason.

    At the airport for my flight down to Melb for the game tonight....2 hour delay on the flight.

    Glad I didn't book the afternoon flight 😬

    Expecting a close contest with both sides looking to flex their muscles. Dogs will be hungry but I think we've got the talent and system to absorb their pressure and keep them to a relatively low score. Dees by 12.

    20 point win. Was flying over but still have staples in my leg from surgery. Not overly keen sitting in a cramped plane seat for 90 minutes.

    Luke Beveridge looks to have lost the plot post grand final - scratchy in interviews and ridiculous bogan mo. Hope his misery continues tonight.

    Well I awoke this morning with a heavy dose of MFCSS. Can't wait to go to the footy and in my usual seat which is having a somewhat abatement of MFCSS.

    Wouldn't it be great if instead of Hells Bells before the song as the boys come out, they swapped it with Freed from Desire.

    Get in their faces.

    hahah my memory of the shellacking we gave the Doggies is also similarly fresh.

    Drove into Melbs to go into the office for the first time since August, rang my mate who I’m going with tonight, we just giggled like kindergarten kids for 5 mins before saying see you at the pub at 5 and that was it. What a day.

    forecast for today is now 25 with "cloudy morning with a medium (40%) chance of showers, becoming less likely and partly cloudy in the afternoon"

    perfect night for footy!

    It would be appropriate for us to learn the lessons of the Carlton praccy match in regard to those sensitivities of those who wilfully interfere with what is now 'protection' in the form of game-changing handwashing for their mistakes onfield - when all that the supporting and more general public want is a fair shake of the sauce bottle from the now annointed 'larvae'. Good substitute name, buck-n.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?
