Not yet it is  tonight if you have got it right. ( You can watch it!!! )

What details to you want?

They have been on the website for weeks. Unless you are expecting a live coverage as per recent seasons. 
Not sure we didn't have to register our details for a zoom coverage.

Ok so in response to Adonski's clever (in jest) take that 12 players might be all that's left at the B&F ....

Some may not get the veiled reference if not a Seinfeld fan or haven't watched this particular episode.

If you are you're already aware of George's character and that he's a habitual cotastrophizer and panic merchant/drama king, this GIF a great example of that.

On one hand some D'landers do call "fire" when there is just some smouldering (nothing to see here) smoke in a basket.  That's one aspect.  I'm also guilty of that on occasions!

There's also some truth in what Adonski jokingly exaggerated in the sense that so many players (end of season this time around) are either looking to exit, have already retired or may be doing so due to potential career ending injuries. Probably also some Clarry no show 'spin off' take in there as well.

A bit of a scramble for the exit (overnight list 'Shrinkage') with a D'land (Costanza style) panicy twist added in for good measure.

It was also a great excuse to just post that GIF, an all time classic Seinfeld moment imv.  George taking no prisoners in pursuit of his own self preservation.

As you can see, my SOH is pretty warped.  And some of it is (sometimes) a reflection of my own flaws that i see when watching certain sitcom characters & episodes.

Thanks a lot for your trouble much appreciated. Even mentioning the characters didn't mean much at all.

If I watched more than ONE episode of Seinfeld for 5 minutes that's about how much I have watched and of about a dozen American " comedies" in my 75 years. Others for eg. are Fraser Don't Tell Your Mother, another  with an actor who was named Earle etc.

A friend made me watch the LAST episode of Seinfeld about 25/30 years ago and it was a waste of time really.

Even though I have had Foxtel for 15 years I have never watched repeats of the American comedies. 

I did watch "The Nanny" and liked that 

I was into British comedies ie Fawlty Towers, Are You Being Served and Yes Minister with IMO far superior if vastly different comedy lines and topics. Much the same with Crime Shows also.  

I thought there must have been a joke I didn't get or I would have taken umbrage with him.

Thanks again and Go Dees.

Thanks 58er I was hoping for something similar to last couple of years where we could click and watch. Disappointing end to the year.!!

I think DeeZone is mainly referring to the fact that nothing was said about the Casey B&F prior to it happening last night.

I'm going tonight and have been to many in the past.
To save me calling the club - I don't get a ticket from memory - just show up and I'm on the list?

Yep. You’ll be on the list if you’ve paid the money for your seat.

Make sure you post updates BEFORE you get hammered. Oh wait, that’s advice to myself, not you. 😂

 

Not going tonight, Kat. Gonna watch the livestream from a pub in Richmond while celebrating another Dees diehard’s birthday with a roomful of Dees Diehards.

Enjoy the night!!!

Not that I have a problem or nuthin, but can you bet on the BnF?

Not that I know of but they do have a 'raffle' tonight where you tip the top 10 in order.
All winning entries (there's usually quite a few), go in the draw for about 6 prizes.
$10 an entry from memory, so if you know anyone going tonight give them a call with your list and sling them a tenner at some stage.

Agree his odds would be good to take.

Because this is voted by the Coaches JV will get his due volume as a team man and following coaches instructions.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
