Was that Carlton game the "bruise free footy" game?

Ayers Rock (Uluru) is still there - you just can't climb it

This is actually a great result and hopefully sees the AFL move to flexible fixture in the future. There's no way they would have had us vs Bris in NT or vs Dogs on a Friday night when creating the fixture last year

surely its us and the Dogs

When I first heard the podcast when it began I thought it was pretty low quality (production wise) and too dry for my liking. It is now my favourite Melbourne Demons podcast (and there are a few out there!) Well done guys, the discussion is always intelligent and engaging, I love listening to it while I'm working or driving somewhere. @Binman, the lack of stats and analysis in the mainstream media has been a huge bugbear of mine for a long time as well. Champion Data don't even release the "Prospectus" anymore which I used to buy each year for an overview. Sure not everyone is going to enjoy it but with the amount of media coverage you'd think there would be some market for that type of coverage. What there is is extremely limited and those that do do some more in depth coverage like Mark McGowan on the AFL website get the flick!

"Yeah Robbo, Dusty's amazing. In between racking up 40 touches and kicking the sealer I made sure to keep an eye out for him so I could witness the beauty of his 6 possessions first hand."

Hahahaha No

My thinking is they'll bring in Weid and Sparrow but I could easily see it being Brown and Harmes (assuming he's recovered from his wrist fracture). My only concern with Brown coming in is the potential to upset our forward half pressure as he is notorious for going missing once the ball hits the ground. Weid on the other hand doesn't mind laying the odd crunching tackle.

It's been a little over 2 weeks, not quite a month

Especially considering he was actually not bad last week, I thought he played his role (but of course not sure about his defensive work)

I agree. I assume Sparrow will be back in

I've seen articles he's written begin with phrases such as, "Watched the Bombers game last night." Not, "I watched the Bombers game" just "Watched the Bombers game". And he is the chief football writer at the city's most widely read paper, his articles are written as though he is half [censored] having a chat at the pub.

It was actually on line and then completely faded right. Didn't kick through the footy enough?

No, the point was that to assume a player is good just because he was picked up by the Hawks/Clarko is illogical. Plenty of others on that list too.

Even if its moved to Docklands I doubt they'll let crowds in

It was Viney and he tried to bait him again yesterday in the 3rd quarter at a centre bounce. Didn't work this time though.

Last time I went to the snow was 13 years ago with a group of mates none of who follow Melbourne. While they were snowboarding I sat in the bar. Before that I went once as a kid with my folks but that's it.

The Richmond guys in front of us were very lippy early on, calling Fritsch soft for wearing a glove etc. Didn't hear boo from them from midway through the 2nd ?

They were also shoving us out of every marking/ruck contest without a whistle being blown. Once we started doing it to them but didn't they sook it up (players and supporters)

I'm going to start bringing cheese platters to the footy just cos I know it'll rile up the ferals.

Who cares? They're just jealous we can afford to go to the snow during the winter while a big night out for them is pumping their dole cheques into the pokies

Any idea when the AFL will actually make a call on this? It's orthodox Easter next Sunday so trying to plan lunch

I noticed Tomlinson giving it to Riewoldt at one point when Riewoldt was sooking to the umps. ?
