  1. I was ready to throw the towel in. I told Witches Hat I’m likely barking up the wrong tree. Witches Hat said I’m circling the tree and it’s the right tree. Now that I know that I feel I can’t give up.
  2. Training is at Gosch’s tomorrow at 9:30am. But of course that’s subject to change. It’s a shame you can’t make it to the practice match on Friday, but there’s the Family Day on Saturday if you’re still in Melbourne! Not only can you see the boys live, but you can meet them and get autographs, watch BBB’s head transformation, and the highlight of the day… you can indulge in the delicious fare the Demon Army will have on offer. Who doesn’t love a sausage in bread of a Saturday morning?! And you think you’ve had the best cakes ever at some point in your life?! Think again! Our cakes (the cupcakes in particular) are next level delicious. We’ll also be selling merch, so… jump on it!!! #ShamelessPlugMuch? 😁
  3. It’s this album cover… only it’s an office worker cutting sick, channelling his inner Joe Strummer, I think.
  4. Is this a clue, mo? If not, can we please have a clue, @Witches Hat??????
  5. This also answers @cantstandyasam’s question about an admission fee, ie. entry is free to all.
  6. I just PMd you @Witches Hat but please ignore my guess as I just realised how stoopid it is. Actually, maybe don’t ignore my guess. Maybe not so stoopid after all. I might be on to something. or maybe I just want Tim and Demonstone to think they’re at risk of being beaten by a girl 😁
  7. LOL. You watch too much TV. One might argue that it would actually be HARDER to buy drugs from shops since shops have to close at some point in the day, unlike your “seedy crims in back alleys” (lol again) who are open 24/7.
  8. As you say, Kev, it’s all “maybe” and likely will be from here on in. This morning I asked my DeeArmy training schedule go-to, who is more across this than anyone, and even he doesn’t know.
  9. Trust me, he’s not angry. I know him well and he’s certainly not one who deserves to be on ignore, by anyone. He was actually complimenting you.
  10. QD isn’t angry. It’s just his warped sense of humour - same as most on here. 😉
  11. Except they’re not. If they were, he’d never play another game in the AFL, such is the frequency and unpredictability of urine testing, as well as the nature of drug addiction. Drug addiction can’t be turned on and off at will when it suits. He clearly doesn’t have a drug problem. In all likelihood he was “doing drugs” purely and simply because he enjoys it. But we won’t be told as much. We’ll be told that it’s a mental health issue or as you say it’s to mask deeper personal problems, the zeitgeist. Because once this card is played, he’s off-limits in terms of being judged. And this is where the damage is done because this is misinformation, especially for young people who really should be told that it is possible (even if not advisable) to indulge in illicit substances on occasion WITHOUT it meaning they have serious underlying problems. Of course, kids won’t ever be told this because it’s seen as condonation. But these kids who look up to the likes of Ginnivan are being misled and must wonder why it’s acceptable to have a drink on occasion for enjoyment without it meaning there’s serious issues being covered up, but not so for recreational drugs.
  12. Great article. As is another (by the same journo) linked with that one titled, “Brothers in arms: will the Gawn and Grundy experiment work?” In particular, this… https://twitter.com/melbournefc/status/1619997032017727488?s=20 😁🥰🤩
  13. Salted caramel flavour 😋 and only 95 calories per tub!
  14. Maybe the head of the ground-naming committee was a member of the N.A.D. (National Dyslexia Association). 😜
  15. Same. And don’t forget the following day is Family Day. Depending on which long-range forecast you’re looking at the top temperature will be somewhere between 20 - 35. 🤷‍♀️ But whatever the weather conditions, we’re hoping for a really big turnout. ❤️💙
  16. These chumps have to play their not even a practice match game in QLD. 🤭 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
  17. Hey DS, idk if you’ve read the entire thread but I took the liberty of slipping in a little clue as well. I kinda feel sorry for the likes of Tim and Bombay Aircon. I know only too well how frustrating it is when you can’t crack it while others around you can. I hope that’s ok. Maybe I should’ve PM-ed this. 😬
  18. Coles stocks a variety of them. I usually buy Chobani but Ima switch to YoPRO. It comes in salted caramel flavour!!!!!
  19. I’m just happy that the YoPRO announcement came after we received our 2023 DA shirts. Not sure there’d be space for another sponsor’s logo… 😁 Just on the subject of polo shirts… up ‘til now, I’ve successfully managed to dodge the polo bullet (not a fan). Schools, jobs, whatever. Never had to wear one. I once quit a job because they decided to make polos the uniform. (I was thinking of leaving anyways, the introduction of polos just made the decision easier.) But now that’s all changed, for I am about to don a polo. The MFC is the only reason I’d be seen in one. *sigh* the things one does for one’s club.
  20. Demonstone says he’d prefer we don’t give clues. But I’m sure it’s ok for me to say no, those names wouldn’t be suitable. PS: not gonna lie, hella proud that I solved one of DS’s quizzes before you, Mo. 😘
  21. Without giving too much away, DS: I’m not entirely knowledgeable about the thing that links these players. One of your clues alone is what prompted me to have not so much a stab in the dark; rather, a stab in the half-light. edit: @Timothy Reddan-A'Blew, there’s no clue in the above. But gimme a little time, and with Demonstone’s permission, I’ll come up with one.
