We could build a dynasty at Casey with some of those names.

As long as EVERYONE goes to Kardinia Park every second year DJ.

It felt to me that we had so much more of the ball last night and it should never have been as close as it was. If Carlton play finals it'll be because the Dogs lose against Hawthorn next week. Gus was really good again and Melky is having an indian summer. We probably need to bring the same four quarter intensity that got us the W against Brisbane and Fremantle recently in all of our remaining four games but I just don't know if we're capable of that consistency right now.

Although I'd be happy to see them weighed down with the albatross that is his contract for the next 5 years it's more likely that they'll be picking up a fair bit of the tab to move him on if they can. On that basis it make sense to at least have the conversation I guess but would taking on all of his remaining 5 years be a non negotiable from his perspective or would he be happy to compromise if it gets him out of Mordor?

It’s a horrible experience watching a live game against that lot. Somebody in this thread said it was like being in a zoo and they are spot on. Some of them even got into the Tridents area and started baiting people when they started to close the gap on the scoreboard. They are the Millwall of Australian Rules Football.

I’m at the Tippler and everyone that’s walked in so far has been draped in black & white. Looks like they will be out in force tonight.

That’s what the Irish shout when there’s a game on at Lansdowne Road.

As this thread seems to have branched out into words / terms not exclusively used on DL I'd like to know how the hell people over here decided that the surname Strachan should be pronounced as Strawn. Also the Elgin Hotel in Hawthorn should be pronounced with a hard 'g' . I grew up 50 miles from the town Elgin. Lord Elgin was the guy that pilfered the Greek sculptures known today as the Elgin Marbles.

I'm just glad I'll be hermetically sealed on level 2 of the Northern Stand in a Tridents only area so no chance of coming into contact with the puddle drinkers in black & white. QB was a nightmare.

At this rate we'll be top of the ladder by quarter time.

When did the Cats start playing in their away shorts in home games?

I like green being incorporated into their guernseys but they need to ditch the anchor logo. Mint green would be more contemporary and would look good combined with purple and white.

The game at Marvel is abysmal. Anthony Hudson would give Meg Ryan a run for her money.

If the emergencies from last night are playing at Casey today then surely Weeds could've played as well.

We're Melbourne supporters. There's always an excuse. There's a thread dedicated to them all.

Who was it that said Hibbo might have a hamstring problem when he sprinted from the ground? 🤦🏻‍♂️

Have they just replaced the name in all of the Gus stories they had lined up for the coming weeks?

You have my sympathy daisycutter.

LOL. I'm not a fan personally but he loves the national football team and is a life long puddle drinker.

His dad was from Leith but he was born down south which is hardy his fault, to be fair.

Haven't been on that side of the Hipster Proof Fence (Bell St) for a while Scipio. I'll be sure to give the Junction a wide berth though.

The unicorn was part of Scotland's coinage between 1484 and 1525. We also had a half unicorn. I think Rod Stewart might've been our first unicorn millionaire.
