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.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
