Want my ticket?...and the seat in the grand stand?

Season over. I was going to Tas next week. Forget it.

Team missing for two quarters. One goal in that time. A very lucky get out of jail win. Vast improvement still needed. The bits where we were on are now good but the bad...really bad is still there.

Half a million...mmm if the club said to us we will play these games at the G if we the members, come up with a $20 play at home levy, we would all gladly pay it. No? 30,000 times $20 ........

BBO loves mounting and coming from behind as well. He also calls it a victory because of his age .

Deen Terlick

How did they train the ant eater to stand on the mark like that? Potential backman.

Yes old dee.....back in the late 50's early 60's .............Only two grounds I couldn't wear my jumper to....windy hill and vic park.

I've got a one as well. 9 yrs old 148cm already.Can kick both sides.....excellent technique. Taking strong marks overhead. Big body...built like a tank.....a mini ox. All that's in place.....now it remains to be seen if he has a motor......will he run? Too early to push him yet but he looks mighty fine in his Melbourne jumper. He's in the local junior club and this year. To give him an incentive to run I've instituted is first match payments. $5 for every smashing tackle. $5 for a goal ....$3 a kick........I'll be his manager ....Personally I'm an admirer of the Damir Dokic...style of managemnt......only kidding.....but we know how we live and breathe demonism......how do you motivate a 9yr old whos favourite thing is minecraft? Footy is not a passion because he can't identify passionately with the demons when they were smashed every game he went to as a little kid.

Alright if you insist on having a rational discussion about this I will have to come up to your level.......Brownless is separated.........Lyon the same......their partners...the same............so there is nothing to discuss......they are free to do whatever. Where is BBO when you need him?

I had my bong with me. I keep it in a shoulder bag...just the neck poking out. Still I get disapproving looks on public transport.....people are weird. Curses never go for 50 years......what sort of a curse is that? A very poor curse...piddling lousy 50 years......I just hope I heard right.....that it was a hundred ......not a thousand years..!.. (noises off.....evil laughter ) ha haah haaaa haa haaa! etc etc

i went and had a terrifying experience......at about 3 am I had given up looking for the players....... i was over at the south end of the paddock .....under the underpass......looking at graffiti, .......and i saw a ghost ! It said ..and I quote.." not for 100 years will the curse of Norm Smith be expunged.......arghhhhhh (something like arghhhhh) " And I ran , I ran so far away, I just ran, I ran all night and day, I couldn't get away.

I think S. Dank and Sir James should be waterboarded by Tracy Grimshaw ... live on a Current Affair ... so we can get to the bottom of all this.

Even the NFL in the USA took the extraordinary step of removing /distancing itself from getting revenue from gambling and promoting gambling. The AFL is rotten to the core with gambling....revenues and promotion. So is the Vic govt. The asian billionaire who is a gambling big wig.....reportedly behind sports betting and no doubt fixing, ..he is flown into crown on their own plane! This gambling epidemic is the core business of the AFL and nearly 20 pc of our state govts budget. Corruption greed and money money...the destruction of lives..... families.all part of the rich fabric of our culture. Yes I would abandon the money tomorrow....here's my fantasy.....leave the AFL......get out .......form a new competition....I don't care if we play at suburban grounds .....join the vic amateur assoc.......tell me I'm dreamin'.

and our own Billy Sneden

No way ........!

BP...requirements used to be no teeth, little ability and lots of biffo. I see you more as a KPP...if we don't get Weideman it's you and Jessie.

Very good. I accept the challenge. I'm not sure what a life coach does but at this stage I'm putting you on the wing.

You are even more awesome Biff....don't stop posting even if others make awful comments about you.

Biffen......are you related to Ray?....Ray Biffen?.........might be a bit too long ago perhaps.

I was eating Californian Sunshine and clear light.

1. Sleeping rough in Yarra park. 2. Bluey Adams...he used to give me cigarettes. 3. Finding a half eaten Mars bar up the back of the Gray Smith stand in 1961. 4. Having a bad acid trip at an MCG game in 1970, the ground was covered in snakes. I can't remember a lot of detail about the game. 5. Only 10 years ago we went outside at half time to smoke a big spliff. We were shocked to see cops on bikes (!) heading straight for us. They arrested some poor kid who was standing next to us! Couldn't believe our luck.

Come on down to Hobart. We should all meet somewhere b4 the game for an early lunch...this time I am flying down. I arrive early morning so will have to hang about somewhere. I'm banned from the boat because (confession) I smoked a white ox and black hash bong in the sit up seats .. got super paranoid..and then fainted trying to get to the toilet before I threw up. ...

Bitter...I'm going to Hobart this year. In the end i decided not to go with you to Canberra only because i knew you were secretly planning to lock me in the boot around Gundagai. If you look for me at the ground in Hobart I will be wearing embroidered flared jeans, orange kaftan and a genuine 1966 black plastic Beatle wig.
