  1. Sorry, I am not familiar with the terms KTF and TK. Please enlighten me.
  2. I don’t like the intrusion. I gave up when it asked for my personal details.
  3. Fanatique Demon replied to McQueen's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Really? I think of Elmer Fudd.
  4. Nothing personal, @At the break of Gawn. Just my morning dose of pedantry that is sure to make me unpopular, but here goes… That goal can’t be allowed because it’s in the past. Maybe he’d have received 7 or 8 if that goal had been allowed. (I’m not sure when the past became the present, but there’s a recent trend on this forum to rewrite history through tense switching. And it’s driving me crazy.)
  5. That’s incorrect. You can’t bump or block a player unless the ball is within 5 metres. Then it comes down to how you do it.
  6. (Referring to Salem) The Age: BEST – Carlton: Cripps, Charlie Curnow, De Koning, Docherty, Newman, Hewett. Melbourne: Viney, Brayshaw, Salem, Langdon. I think Hunter, Rivers and Oliver were far better than Salem. It just confirms our thoughts about the competence of the media.
  7. Sounds like we lost by 10 goals.
  8. In a very cliched Melbourne way… I’m going to miss this match because I’ll be on a truffle hunt. 🤫
  9. I was taught never to use a big word when a diminutive alternative would suffice.
  10. I definitely feel for Harry. I missed the Sydney Olympics 400m final with the same injury. True story. It’s still fresh in my memory. I had gone to the bathroom and was running back to the TV to watch the 400m final when I slipped on the marble floor and jammed my foot between the couch and floor, sustaining the dreaded lisfranc ligament injury. I was rolling around the floor in agony while the race was run.
  11. Fair enough. And there is only one @binman so I’m fine with that.
  12. Make that four.
  13. Another first rate podcast, gentlemen. Thanks @binman @george_on_the_outer and @Demonland In my view, the phone-in callers add little to the podcast. If anything, they make it more difficult for you to keep to the structure. Would you like to consider dropping that facility and only handling the questions /comments presented on the Demonland forum? Then you could cluster similar questions and refer to them at the appropriate time. Just my thoughts. Cheers.
  14. Too much influence by too few. It used to be Eddy Everywhere. Now we’re in Danger(ous) territory with Paddy playing on and off the Field. And don’t get me started on Fox Footy’s love affair with Jack Riewoldt.
  15. Good work, DOF. So good, I’m copying you!
  16. I have a strong suspicion that I have no idea whether Max will be rested/managed this week.
  17. Do you mean more than? Ie, >100.
  18. Absolutely this. But when even the commentators don’t fully understand the rules, what hope is there that a feral Tiger fan will?
  19. I’m not confused at all. It was one of his poorer games.
  20. A bit mystified by votes to Bowey and McVee.
  21. Please explain.
  22. Me too.
  23. Right! Take a look at Garry Lion’s interview of Cripps. He might have talked more than Cripps. And what’s with interviewers asking questions and providing at least two alternative answers for the interviewee, who invariably decides that ā€œit’s a both of both, reallyā€?
  24. I walk while listening to the podcast (on the following morning) and I’m happy for them to go as long as possible. Last week’s was a 19,253 step podcast. Thanks @Demonland
  25. Maybe someone can help me with this, please… i have a Demons membership but through various reason have only used it for one game this season. It was the King’s Birthday sell-out and I reserved a seat. The Crows game won’t be a sell-out, so can I just rock up on Sunday with my membership, walk in and find a vacant seat somewhere? Or is there some other protocol I have to follow?
