Why we hate the Hawks
Come on, do we need to analyse why we hate them? Isn't the instinct to hate them enough? GO DEMONS!!!

Saint James. Another soul saved. GO DEMONS!!!

Vanders- What a Gun, Tough Story
Jesus Christ. What a hand to be dealt. Takes quite a bit of character to deal with all that. They say: anything that doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. I guess that explains the on field monster we've seen in the last month. Go Vanders. GO DEMONS!!!

Gerard Whately is a Moron
Everyday scenes from the Whateley household: Gerry. Did you pay the power bills??? We just got a disconnection notice! Hmmm ... this could be an indication that we'll be without electricity. An uncertain future for the warmth and comfort of the Whateley premises. We'll keeping checking in and see how that pans out. Gerry, the school called today and said Delilah steals lunch money from the other kids. Hmmmmm ... the counterpoint to this is that the other kids are probably stealing Delilah's lunch money. One might press the notion that it all evens out .... in the long run. Dad, Marius keeps hitting me! Hmmmm ... scenes of disharmony in the Whateley household! Let's watch in the coming days and weeks to see what unfolds. Gerry. You big hunk of a man. Get the champagne while I slip into something more comfortable. Hmmmm ... interesting. Let's get some talkback from the kids about this proposal. Gerry, I'm leaving you. Hmmmm ... shocking news for the Whateley marriage. A bombshell revelation today. I'm serious. I want a trial separation. One's response can only be: We'll be right back after this break.

Umpires this week
Imagine how satisfying it will feel on Monday morning knowing we blew our best chance for a flag in many years by forfeiting a game. Regrettably, the only other course of action open to us is to try to win the match regardless.

Correct. But if the x-ray people detect it, you will quickly become acquainted with the technological advances in plastic 3D printed rubber gloves

He was on a 6 day break. Of course he wasn't up to his usual standard.

Has OMAC surpassed his brother? (The Age)
That's what it means to be a younger brother. signed, A younger brother

Chaos Theory
Some old fashioned kinetic energy delivered by Viney, VDB and Nev will do the trick.

Has OMAC surpassed his brother? (The Age)
I believe Omac is the best full back of this century, and probably of all time. (If we keep saying it enough, it becomes true. I've seen it work at other clubs.)

Umpires this week
Nearly every club's supporters hate Nicholls and are convinced he is biased against them. But I just saw this on the Hawthorn Bigfooty page. Stevic and Nicholls Get around us Only thing to do is make sure our noise is the noise that influences the umps. Study the tapes from Perth to see how it's done. GO DEMONS!!!

Jayden Hunt
He seemed to bulk up in the off season and it may have harmed his development while he gets used to his new body. Yeah he bombs it but that can be fixed. Seeing what Goodwin has done for players whose cards were marked on D'land ... eg JKH, ANB ... I reckon he's still got a big future at MFC.

Post Match Discussion - Elimination Final
Breakdown of coaches votes. Two possible outcomes (I've bunched together Gawn & Oliver as it's not possible to tell which got what). Weid 5 + 4 Harmes 5 + 3 Gawn/Oliver 4 + 0 Oliver/Gawn 3 + 1 TMac 2 + 1 Angus 2 + 0 Weid 5 + 4 Harmes 5 + 3 Gawn/Oliver 4 + 0 Oliver/Gawn 2 + 2 TMac 3 + 0 Angus 1 + 1 So Weid & Harmes rated highly -- all good -- but Angus not? Maybe Goodwin gave him 2 and Old Spiteful gave him 0. And Gawn or Oliver ... one coach no votes!

Meanwhile . . . down at Glenferrie Road . . . .
Bali is as Aussie as Great Keppel Island. You can tell by all the Irish pubs, German steakhouses, etc. So really they should be paying us.

Meanwhile . . . down at Glenferrie Road . . . .
That's a point in their favour .... but they're still Hawk supporters. It's a noble cause and I expect they will offer their use for free. Haj .... Demon flag ... not hard to pick the more vital cause for world peace and harmony ...

Fair enough. But the map showed nothing available. Ticketek 1 -- rest of the world 1,000,000

Roosy and Nathan Jones on mmm hot breakfast
I remember when we had to hand paint on vellum in the cloisters! It took 6 months just to do the coin toss. Contested ball situation opening bounce Of course once we got colour things improved enormously. Ruck duel Busker outside the G The day the chip stand at Princes Park caught fire We weren't restricted to footy either. Final of the Australian Open. Great days.

Finals Tickets
Out of curiosity I stuck with the computer browser. After 35 minutes, got through, enter barcode ... There are no tickets available that match the entitlements of this password or group code. I owe someone a beer!

Finals Tickets
A hearty thank you to who suggested using a phone. I got nervous after seeing the "Thousands of AFL fans are transacting right now. The Ticketek website is up and running and you are in a queue, waiting for your turn." message on my computer screen for an uncomfortably long time. Got on the phone, got through the queue in the first 10 seconds, enter barcode etc ... select seat, go to pay YOUR SESSION HAS TIMED OUT Get f***ed! still had 6 minutes on it! Back on, this time success. And the whole time, the computer browser has been patiently sitting in the chumps queue and still is. "Thousands of chumps are transacting right now. The Ticketek website is up and running and you are in a queue, waiting for your turn. This is a normal part of our f***ed up operation." Thank you again!

Changes v Hawthorn - Semi Final
Sure, Garlett gives X factor. About 1 time in 10. He'll go for the flashy low percentage miracle goal only to look up (literally) to see his oppo player in space running the ball the other way. In finals, no thanks.

Changes v Hawthorn - Semi Final
And all under wife pressure. Which beats finals pressure any day. These are the sacrifices that must be made if you want ultimate success!
