Confirmed Turner in for Hibberd.

Very happy for Disco. He's earned a call up ahead of Tommo.

Would love to watch but I have a commitment in Westminster.

I am full of excitement chook! Not sure which to watch Charlie or the Dees. No.1 wife will be keen on Charlie so might have the lap top on Dees with sound off as most weeks.

Last year, I went and I would reckon we outnumbered their supporters 2 to 1, and that's with them giving away a free hamburger for every goal they scored

A free xxxx might have been more successful.

It's been a dreadful week for your poor old Uncle Bitter.

The Manor's central heating has packed it in and it seems there is no suitably qualified artisan available to repair it for about 3 years. Next the sound system on the cinema blew up and for 2 days subtitles became my friend. And finally, an unusual problem with the tandem trailer caused me considerable grief.

Currently I am alone and reliving something akin to the experiences of Shackleton et el. 

I do , however, have my ever faithful friend Mr. Shiraz nearby and he shall be my source of comfort and inspiration throughout the evening.

My second source of comfort will an inevitable Dees victory. Though I suspect it may be a hard fought win. The suns have a decent line up.

A strong midfield ( though no Took will hurt) and a decent ruckman who always competes well against Max. Max and Grundy though ,will overwhelm him. May is too strong for King and I'm glad Turner is getting a run. I really liked what little I have seen of him.

Dees to runaway in the end by around 30 points.

Don’t worry about the heating being in subtropical Romsey.

You need an electric blanket out Bbo or don't you favour those at the manor?

I'll stick with the Shiraz od!

Not sure I agree, a single malt with the min. temp heading to 3 would be my choice. Hmm tonight it might be three or four.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
