  1. Manchester United are NOT part of my Demon family. Wash your mouth out!
  2. He plays for the same team as Jordan, Wiedermann, Thomlinson and Bowie. And you call yourself a Melbourne fan.
  3. Wurlitzer one for the money, two for the show ...
  4. Richmond's threat to leave Punt Road if they don't get their way seems hollow to me. They would be the only ones to suffer if they took that action so the threat is meaningless.
  5. Clearly not an example of Shiel be Wright.
  6. I think there are two records being confused here. The record that Bowey holds is the most number of career games without a single loss. The other record is most games before first loss, as shown in the table above. Bowey is four wins behind that particular record at the moment.
  7. That was the joke.
  8. That's what spuds are for.
  9. I think I may hold the record here. It was round 9 in 1998 and we lost to Essendon at the MCG after a stirring win the previous week at the same venue against Collingwood. Lyon, Viney and Stynes were among those still playing for the Demons. Haven't been to a game since for reasons many and varied. Come at me.
  10. We were shaken, but not stirred.
  11. Not for a long time, binny. Drew Banfield in 1992 and Michael Gardiner in 1996 are their only number one draft picks.
  12. Seventeen Grand Finals as either a player or coach for ten wins (and a draw).
  13. 3 + 1 = 4 which was Norm Smith's number. I can hear that Twilight Zone theme playing.
  14. Matt Buntine was clearly rated as a junior, being taken at pick 5 in the 2011 draft. Adam Tomlinson went at pick 9 in the same draft.
  15. Think you may have missed the intended joke there!
  16. My dear old grandfather was very familiar with turf. He smoked about 30 of them a day.
  17. Indeed. What about him?
  18. Just missed out but could get a gig as the injury sub. He'd be great for team morale. I can just picture him running around after we score a goal and handing out the high four and a halves to his teammates.
  19. Terry gave up his footy career for a crack at showbiz.
  20. All this chat (see what I did there?) about wings has sent me on a flight of fancy. I submit, for your amusement or otherwise, a team of high flyers.
