  1. 12 Rod Keogh. Rackham out.
  2. Mazer Rackham replied to Romey's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Correct, we just need to get our foot in the door so we can get on the gravy train of repeated upgrades, etc, that the other clubs have shown is well and truly in place. ATM we're watching the train go round and round on a circular track and we're not even on the platform.
  3. Not forgetting a big thank you to Civil for brightening up our day with some brain wrenching challenges. Thank you Civil!
  4. Bob Dylan played cricket? I suppose the words of one of his many great songs should have given it away ... ♪ How many times can the Pom bats collapse Before they lose their way? Yes'n how many times can their bowlers tear in Before they don't know what to say? Yes'n how many Tests can the England team play ♫ Before they give the Ashes away? The answer, my friends, Is three. The answer is three.
  5. Scratch that. Wikipedia showed it to be Pieter Ilych Emburey.
  6. Surely that would be Yehudi Boycott?
  7. That's what I meant. Had the answer but couldn't quite work out why.
  8. Weideman trapped by falling debris after training the house down.
  9. If I am not mistaken this is actually the tune for "You're a Grand Old Flag" which is the direct ancestor of our club song, which has a very slightly different melody?
  10. My God. Do you want to get D'land shut down? There are other websites that specialise in this kind of activity.
  11. He is the embodiment of a trend in radio commentating where the lead commentator is babbling on about the play, and then all the commentators in unison go OHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! because of something extraordinary that's happened, and they don't blinking well say what the amazing thing is! Until the moment has passed. Great for the commentators. They're having their post-coital ciggie but leave the rest of us left dangling.
  12. I see it as Brayshaw being delirious with amazement at what he was seeing, and became incoherent and unable to articulate his thoughts.
  13. Flag winning players celebrating after the GF. And this time it's Melbourne players doing it! Still brings a warm glow.
  14. Sometimes you get that excited you just want to do it again.
  15. Now all we need is an article in the newspapers from Hamish saying how peeved and upset he is that his tagline was stolen. This actually happened in golf. Jack Nicklaus won a tournament and in the key moment -- a long putt that dropped -- the commentator of the moment said "yes, sir!" which has gone into the sports commentating hall of fame. Except the guy had "stolen" the line from another commentator who used it a few days before. Cue spats, recriminations, protestations of innocence, etc. It was big bickies for these guys, but for the rest of us, a first world storm in a teacup. And funny.
  16. Can't see this. Simmons throws it like Selwood -- could be an advantage -- but overarm so would get pinged by the umps. Would get tackled a lot as he bounces the ball too much. Also he has no left foot. Or right foot. And correct me if I'm wrong but he hasn't even been drafted yet? Most likely to get picked up by GCS or GWS as a "project" player.
