  1. Oh I know the correct contraction, WCW! Just fear language is evolving to treat the singular contraction as applicable to the plural (and even have been found guilty of doing so while speaking myself from time to time 😳)
  2. On a similar note, has anyone noticed that "there's" is often used despite the uncontracted phrase being in the plural of "there are"?
  3. We may indeed be alone... even MW derides us, despite preserving the original meaning! Informative but glossed over the median usage (re percentage) in between the Romans and today with only a brief mention of tithing! It's a bit like literally and figuratively, with literally now having a common usage of which figuratively used to have the sole domain. Sure we can live with the evolution of language, but I'll remain twitchy! Precision of meaning can be vital for productive communication and consensus buil--!! *DP is pulled off-stage by a hook*
  4. iirc seems Anderson has not won a case for the MFC except for that JVR case last season
  5. On a different note, remember when decimate meant to destroy one tenth? I'm no good at calculating percentages but the evolution of decimate to mean largely destroy does my head in...
  6. More likely that the tooth fairy exists than the AFL having a scrap of integrity, these days...!

    Good, long lasting minty toothpaste with a completely recyclable tube! Something to "Dsmile" about, so to speak... https://dsmile.com/products/toothpaste 😁
  8. Thanks for the training report, Kev! Have a wonderful time overseas! Hope you're back in time to watch our next premiership 😁
  9. The idea that Chris Scott is secretly a die hard Dees fan, who posts very regularly and insightfully on Demonland, and has styled himself as the personal assistant to binman is too funny. Thanks for the laugh!
  10. Yes Gawny!!
  11. Sorry everyone, I went and put on a scarf in the first quarter break while watching at home in Sydney. Haven't unpacked the gear from when I last visited Melbourne, so grabbed the premiership scarf which hangs by my bed instead. Might have mozzed us for that quarter!
  12. All guns firing so far, enjoyable way to start a game!
  13. 2 wings 2 furious! Nice little steal!
  14. Atta boy, Rooey!
  15. I just rewound to check the person and that's defs McAdam. See what Earl Hood is saying though, his look always reminds me of a grunge rocker haha

    Love this so much!
  17. Fullarton is sick btw and so not playing at Casey, probably why he was taken off the emergency list
  18. Oh gawd, the MFCSS fear that I've least been able to allay over time is that no Max Gawn = no Demons 😱
  19. I think it was spot on as a charicture of Max 😁 but I may be drinking the same thing...
  20. Not a single coffee or Red Bull?! Hope you've rectified that by now, WCW!
  21. U don't want to know how they make the Uncle's Udon...!
  22. Excited to see two new clubs have adopted their First Nations names! We've now got Euro-Yroke (St Kilda) and Waalitj Marawar (Weagles). Proud of the club for starting off this approach ❤💙
  23. Hope to see your name on one of your favourite players, WCW! 💖
  24. This + grumble to any poor sod who has to listen to me about whatever pet theory I've adopted as the reason for the loss!
  25. Well, all's well that ends well! ...except I never found out about Eddie's haircut plans 🥲
