  1. The biggest missed opportunity tonight? That’d be in the first quarter, Jack Sinclair on the bench, Saints doc hovering over him holding a pair of scissors yet Sinclair still has that mullet intact.

    Thank you Pates . I now know the song may not been the right one but it DEFINITELY is not the wrong one .

    I loved the Sandman entrance but I love even more the Bell ringing to let us know our players are about to come on the ground .

    Sorry if anyone missed the survey that would have liked to contribute .

    Yes! Bring back the Hell’s Bells! The hairs on the back of my neck miss them!!!

      Can testify to feeling nowhere near the same levels of anxiety that I used to feel  

     

    I am the complete opposite. My anxiety is next level this season. It’s off the charts! I can’t eat on game day, and I can only relax once that siren sounds and we’ve won. I guess in previous seasons there was a sense of resignation. This winning thing is something that’s gonna take time to get used to.

    A suitable track-list for MFCSS: "I Feel You", "Walking in My Shoes", "Condemnation", "Mercy in You" . . . 

    One last thing on Depeche Mode... all the detractors making so much noise about the Dees etc. If we make it all the way this year we can “Enjoy The Silence.”

    Silence from all 17 other clubs, that is. And us? We’ll be bringing the proverbial house down. We’ll register 8, maybe 9 on the Richter scale. ?

    I'll never be able to bring myself to chant Weed like that at the footy.

    That’s not the only reason you wouldn’t wanna yell out “WEEED” at the footy. ?

    Sigur Ros thinks Depeche Mode is the greatest band in the history of mankind. I read once. 

    I mean, there’s worse bands they could’ve picked. Depeche Mode are actually really good. I still regularly listen to Songs of Faith and Devotion, an album from early 2000’s. 
    GO DEES!!!!

    Hadda include Go Dees lest we’re punished for hijacking this thread. Oh, and coz the Dees are the greatest football club in the history of mankind, and a bit before that. ?

    I'll have a dip!

    Rum affliction made ship sail behind Mauritius (1st Class) initially.   (5)

    Was wondering when you’d pop up, DS. ? 

    Great clue. I personally would never use the old chestnut ship for ss, but hey, you do you. ?

    Just for fun how is this?

    Australian Capital with damaged fallboot and golf stick where a fan has tossed (arid+some+n)

    Number of letters in each word: 9,8,4,9,8

    Canberra Football Club Supporter Syndrome?
    JK. I’m being facetious. “Australian capital city with...” probs would’ve been better. But then again, Canberra is an eight-letter word, not nine.

    Any suggested cryptic crossword alternatives, WCW??

    While I’m not too shabby at solving cryptic clues, I’m rubbish at setting them. Would love to hear what you can come up with. ?All I can say is that I was sure one of the S’s stood for a word that means excrement.

    Am i right in thinking cannabis has been, or will be taken off the WADA banned list of drugs?

    Idk why it’s on the WADA list: it’s hardly performance enhancing. 
    Have you ever seen a stoner get off the couch to go to the kitchen? They’ll take the circuitous route, be gone for hours and come back empty-handed anyways.

    30 years ago I was weaving my way through a crowded nightclub making my way back from the ladies’ room when I was hit in the head with a jug of beer. It wasn’t deliberate, one big drunk guy was passing the beer to his mate, but it was reckless. My then-boyfriend was furious and asked me to point the guy out, which I did. What happened next? Nothing, that’s what. Turns out the big drunk guy was Darren Millane and the then-bf was a diehard Magpies fan. 
    Needless to say, that relationship didn’t exactly flourish. 

    I just wanna clarify something re the above story. The then-bf wasn’t an aggressive person at all. Thing is, I told him that the big drunk guy probs wasn’t even aware that he’d hit me. The then-bf (naively, I suppose) wanted to let the big drunk guy know, and for him to apologise. I wouldn’t have pointed him out had I even remotely suspected there’d be trouble.  There’s a happy postscript to the story: Millane indeed didn’t know and when told, said “no worries mate, bring her over and I’ll definitely  apologise.” But he never got the chance to coz by this stage I was out front hailing a cab. Being doused with beer usually signals the end of the night. For me, anyways. The then-bf ended up having a beer with Millane so all was well that ended well.
