    Ok, I am slightly enthused by that, thanks. Now just need to get on to the website. I'd been stuck on the auto-refreshing "you're in the queue" page for the last two hours

    Ok thanks guys. I'm in the permanent "hold tight you're in the queue" loop, so I guess I'll have to wait for that to sort itself out before checking my ticketek account, then going from there.

    I haven't been able to read through all posts here, so apologies if I am repeating what has already been asked. I got through at 9am, selected my seat, entered and then submitted my payment details. The page didn't go to the confirmation screen, and instead timed out/errored. After a refresh I went back to the "hold tight, you're in the queue" message and I've been on that ever since. I haven't received an email to confirm my purchase, however I can see that my credit card has been charged. So am I good? And is the above similar to what others here have been experiencing?
  4. Right up there with the Triple M newsreading numpty who said "Melbourne still hadn't beaten a top 8 side, but that ended on the weekend when they defeated GWS...." Flogs just have their default narrative and stick with it, regardless of facts

    I think the big difference with Frost is he is no longer running around like a chook with no head. When it's on he goes. When it's not he now has the patience/composure to find a better option
  6. I'd like those same flogs to explain why there wasn't similar carping about the filth, who have beaten one of the top 8 all season - and that was us!
  7. Massive man crush for Harmes ?

    Radio said "hyper extended" wrist for Tyson Melksham bleeding from nose and mouth. Was down a while so having concussion test
  9. This I went into the game expecting to get the usual reaming by WA crowd/umpire decisions and was very surprised when it didn't happen and a few 50/50 calls actually went our way. Certainly wouldnt go as far as to suggest it was rigged though. Sheesh.
  10. Got an email from the club today with offer of two free GA tickets to Giants game. Get on it!
  11. Yeah I thought the maggots were very 'accomodating' today, surprisingly. Still a few dodgy calls/non calls, but far few that I expected given what was at stake. We did really well to keep the crowd quiet for most of the game.

    Yes! Umpires seem to be getting lazy. Paying marks early, paying short marks, allowing players to run too far without a bounce...etc Maybe they should get back to umpiring the basic stuff instead of looking for and making all the dramatic calls
  13. JTR replied to Engorged Onion's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Nicholls does that all the time. Also a master of blowing the whistle to pay an uncontested mark BEFORE player has actually marked it, then paying it anyway or finding some other reason to give them a free when they drop it.

    Now now, let's not ruin this thread with facts
  15. JTR replied to What's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Then I dream...

    I have us losing next two and scraping in as long as Adelaide beat North, Bombers beat Port, and rest of results go as I (?) would expect.
  17. There were at least a couple that missed everything too ?
  18. JTR replied to Whispering_Jack's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    ... and at least 1/3 of what goes on out there is in the hands of Nicholls
  19. JTR replied to Whispering_Jack's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Just seen the umpire appointments. FML!
  20. So no Rohan then?
  21. What Max did say which concerned me a little bit is that these aches and pains were new to him as he doesn't usually get sore. I just hope there is nothing more seriously lingering waiting to twang/snap/tear/break /MFCSS
  22. Game is on Sunday. Current forecast isn't too bad
