    Julia Gillard could be available for a job with the MFC in a few minutes.

    There is no doubt absolutely none that the drug was declared illegal in 2010 or 2011. What I think they will base their defence on is not that the drug wasn't declared illegal, but rather that we can't be certain that is the drug they were given. In other words they admit they were going to use it, but they can't be sure that is what they got. I can't see that getting up. As far as the AFL is concerned the club will be slammed and the players will escape penalty. That is different to ASADA who will seek to ban any users, no matter what they thought of its illegality.

    Congrats to WJ and family on new grandson via daughter Emily. Demons membership surges by one more.

    They will not get off. We now have an admission from the captian that they took an illegal drug, thinking it was legal. That is no defence to ASADA. Further the AFL will be fuurious, as I have said before, that they gave drugs to kids and can't tell them even today what they took and what are the side effects. This is a disgusting event that makes any other issue in the AFL seem like nothing.

    If we are/were a rabble, what are Essendon? This the biggest scandal ever in the AFL.

    How about banana syrup?

    I'll supply the pi-s. That's not pies. It is the slang for urine.

    Saw film of Crowley barrelling into Boomer and sending him sprawling before the game started. Umpire right there tell Crowley to calm down and no free kick. Commentators furious as no free kick paid. Then I contrast that with the soft bump on Jones of the Saints, by Dunn, when Garland is about to kick out and reversal and Nick gets a free from 10 metres out. That is just so inconsistent. Amazing how weak sides cop that so often. There were four pathetic free goals given to the Saints, all controversial, yet not one to us. Funny that.

    His name is on the cover, as co author with his wife.

    Think I can sum it up pretty easily as follows, it is a book about a mare that won all her 25 starts and is the best sprinter, give or take Vain, that we have ever seen.

    Just finished reading the book on Black Caviar by Gerard Whately, a very good read. Today I was in Chadstone shopping centre in the book shop and bought two books. One was the Master, the story of Bart Cummings, by the the greatest racing writer in the world, Les Carlyon. The second was a bit smaller and is called Life is Sport and Sport is Life, by Tami and Paul Roos. Thought it might be interesting.

    I think we certainly deserve that.

    What does pinned mean?

    Pedersen is not in our best 28-30 and makes poor decisions. He is also not a very hard at it footballer. IMO he is a VFL footballer. I would never play Byrnes again. I watched him for a lot of the game. He doesn't even try and spoil if the kick is not directly to him. He is slow. He turned it over yesterday on nearly every possession he had. Reluctantly I would play him at Casey. As one of the other club's recruiters said, " he was struggling in the VFL last year".

    At least some good news, Jack Watts says he wants to stay a Demon and has instructed his manager to start discussions with us. Hopefully he re signs soon and then we can move on to some others we want to keep. Some other good news would be the retirement of Byrnes and maybe Pedersen.

    Even better post.

    But we are well on the way.

    The voices told me we wouldn't play Byrnes again. They lied.
  21. Redleg replied to Redleg's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Byrnes in the side, I can't believe it . Surely Taggart is worth a try.

    Put them near the vacuum cleaner or broom. Unlikely to be found there as they are places to avoid.

    Funny you mention that. My last blood test result showed that my blood had a sort of yellow tinge to it. The doctor is stunned and I will just keep him in suspense.

    Now you are talking. We could even have banana dog biscuits for your demon dog.
