  1. Never mind the respective comebacks of Sam Docherty, Paddy McCartin and Jesse Hogan. The real story in team selection this week is that The Big Prussian, Brayden Preuss, has been named in the extended squad and might finally make his debut for GWS.
  2. Which one do you reckon is the biggest?
  3. Here is a previously unreleased image of Jake Lever sustaining his plantar fascia injury. Hope to see you back out there next week, Rick!
  4. I'll openly admit to being a caveman. It all started a long time ago with his first band The Boys Next Door who became The Birthday Party and then continued on during his solo work and with long time cohorts The Bad Seeds.
  5. Come here and say that.
  6. There is a well established link between Bjork and the Dogs.
  7. The AFL is on a hiding to nothing here. If they scheduled top teams against bottom teams, people would whinge about one-sided games.
  8. Why is this not on my bingo card? Glaring omission there, Binman.
  9. I believe that Number 3 for our AFLW team definitely is.
  10. The "clubhouse leader" you referred to. You'll have to tell us who it was.
  11. If this is correct, it would have been most appropriate of Mazer to post this quiz on Monday, which of course was "Pi Day" being 14th of March, or 3.14 in American terms.
  12. My PM to Mazer wouldn't send for some reason (he's blocked me? ), but I think Team 2 is based on the jumper numbers making up the formula for Pi (3.141592 etc). I've posted this publicly because at least one other Demonlander had already solved it.
  13. Somebody who had the good oil?
  14. "Backflip" in itself is the wrong term to describe an about-face even without the 180/360 kicker. When you do a backflip, you end up in the exactly the same place you started. In other words, your position hasn't changed at all.
  15. Sydney, umpires have been called maggots as long as I can remember, going way back to when I first started going to the footy in the sixties. Compared to other names I have heard directed at them, it sits at the lower end of the offensive scale for me.
  16. Fan: Can I call the umpire as a maggot? AFL: No, and you'll face stiff penalties if you do. Fan: Am I allowed to think that the umpire is a maggot? AFL: You can think whatever you want. Fan: "Hey umpire, I think you're a maggot."
  17. I think we're talking about form, not function.
  18. I got so big during lockdown that my family dubbed me Sir Cumference. Does that count?
  19. Arsenal Football Club have a policy of selecting players with this low centre of gravity.
  20. You're not getting behind this idea, Ethan?
  21. Hmmm. A cheeky post that will doubtless garner some wisecracks.
  22. To be fair, this may have been interpreted to stand for Mumbling Fat ... umm ... Character.
  23. You leave the Collingwood supporters alone. They've already demonstrated their willingness to do what they can for the poor flood victims in Northern NSW by sending up two busloads of looters.
  24. I was agreeing with Dee Dee and hanging it on those who call footy "AFL".
  25. I thought exactly the same thing this morning Dee Dee when I slipped down to the local swimming pool for a nice spot of FINA.
