I find Roost and a few others play an important role to steadying my mood after a disappointing loss. It's like the steam coming out his ears is releasing pressure from inside my head as well.

The extent to which I agree socially validates the frustration I'm also feeling. The extent to which I think Roost sometimes goes too far resets my thinking to argue the case for the positive.

Thank you, DZ. But because they live in Poland I’ll not be able to hold the little bundle of joy probs until mid next year when they visit Aus. All good though, meantime I’ll be spoiling and fawning from afar. 😅

My son and his partner aren’t into footy at all. But of course they know how much I adore our beloved Dees. Last night I told them I’m gonna buy MFC and DA membership for the yet-to-be-born little one. My son’s reply…

Funny [censored]-er, isn’t he. 🙄 

Congratulations WCW .... I became a grandparent just over a year ago. I can certainly recommend it.

My daughter is a Demon (of course). We watched the GF together. And one of my most treasured photos is of the 2 of us with the Premiership Cup. However her husband is Carlton, and he's more 'into' footy than my daughter, so my beautiful granddaughter will be a Bluebagger.

It could be worse ... filth, Essendon, Richmond, Jee-long ... (I'd forgotten how many teams I really hate.)

Hahaha, I think you’ll find I’ve been very positive in years gone by. I’m just not feeling it this year even though I still believe we can win, I just think it more likely we’ll crash and burn.

Not gonna lie;

Going through a football season thinking 'we should be on top of this' while the team stumbles around with all-too-familiar problems is agony.

Did l hear to be listed "available" if successful session on Thursday? (Petty)

 

This is incredible and I don't know how to feel about it. Part of me says get him in if he gets through the session, another part says hold him back a week to make sure there aren't going to be issues. I just think of last season with Oliver and how he pushed himself just that little bit too hard when he was only a week away and set himself back another month.

But as this is the positive thread I'll just say I'm happy to hear he's back on the track!

Or so it appears, OD.

Don’t let that dour exterior fool you. I PM back n forth with the Rooster and truth be known he’s a big ‘ol softie 🥹

He’s sweetness and light and all that’s good in the world. 

His glass ain’t even half full, it’s full to the brim… of marshmallows. 😃


 

There, that should shut him up 😄

That's an apt description of me although I'm not a marshmallow fan.

Yes good point D17. 

I was surprised how their depleted midfield performed.

Looking on the upside as bad as we played in patches we were in front at the 3 quarter mark and could have taken the chocolates.

That's why I'm still optimistic. The team does have character now and is never blown away by final siren in a loss

Viney is wonderful

I would say pound for pound he would be one of the strongest players about.

He just shakes tackles off and that goal of his was a perfect example.

I finally found the bloody keys to my Royal Enfield.

Been looking for ages.

Is it the Indian Enfield? Saw a lot of those on the roads in India… magnificent!!

He still gets me worried when he tries to take on too much rather than attempt to hand off the ball when he has the opportunity.


Congrats WCW hope it all goes well for you and the family

I'd say that was more than a Tracca trait Hardtack.

Yes, he does tend to do it as well (I’d rate them almost even in that department 😁)… it’s frustrating.

Yes it's Deluxe Bullet 500cc.

Some Indian company bought the name and started making them again in a very traditional looking manner but with a lot of modern conveniences like efi and a few other things.

They are a staple workhorse in India. You see three people on them.

I was there a long time ago (early 1989 I think it was), so I’m not sure whether there were using modern conveniences at that time (were they even available to those motorcycles produced in the west, back then?). But yes, you’d see them everywhere loaded to the hilt with both produce and human cargo.

Always wanted to visit India.

Is it true what they say?

I recently bought a Mash Five Hundred - part of the modern 'retro bike' renaissance. Pretty chuffed with it.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
