I was driving southbound down Punt Road this morning at around 10 and there was nobody to be seen on the training track over at Goschs Paddock.

Does this mean that the club trained elsewhere today?

    A grammatically challenged yoda question, as in, may be there?

    Or, a command, as in, May, be there!

    so we should await an entertaining report from picket fence and the vipers?

    As we await Picket’s report from distant Casey Fields. The limited transmissions received so far seem to flicker intermittently between reality and  mystery. (re: Steven May’s presence or absence?)

     Like trying to receive television broadcasts back in the early 60’s of my early childhood days from the Goulburn Valley. Black and white fuzzy images that would seemingly coalesce and than elusively disappear into the ether.

    Of those early formative days of TV broadcasts one of the most memorable shows began with Rod Sterling’s narration “There is a fifth dimension beyond which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition and it lies between the pit of man’s fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the an area which we call the Twilight Zone.”

     Knowing Picket Fence has great affection for the suburban culture of his youth and his previous reports have heavily referenced cult favourites such as the original Star Trek, Space Family Robinson, and he has lovingly homaged Columbo’s Peter Falk…

    It’s been photoshopped.

    Great get. It’s actually Steven May’s head transposed over the body of the head waiter from Entrecôte.

    Looking at photo #8, that is a serious leap Farris White has.

    He was reportedly furious when he found out he had a big arrow hovering over him

    My god you are old TC. I remember that well I lived in Bendigo, Shepparton and Ballarat were both channel 6. Some days you got Shep and sometimes Ballarat.

    You are only as old as you think you are OD! Lived in Shep well before local TV was even thought about. We were one the first households to have television (only because my dad was an adept welder and built a steel ‘tower’ for the antenna). Transmissions were received from Melbourne,  blue cellophane covered the screen in an attempt to reduce fuzziness.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
