  1. A little bit of 'tongue in cheek' Jaded? I'm not biting!
  2. Both states could play players who were on an AFL ROOKIE list provided they were not required to play AFL that day. I think I'm correct here.
  3. Thanks for that 4jacks. He did look the goods.
  4. Watching the Big V thrash WA I couldn't help but be impressed with the skill and toughness of one Marcus Marigliani. Gee, he looked so polished and poised. Worth looking at the next draft? Don't know how old he is and his history. Anyone have ideas on this one?
  5. Good one Rojik. Watts is going to be a super star, no worries. I couldn't help comparing the MAN out there today with the skinny schoolboy last year. He is so skilful and mature. What quick hands he has.
  6. In my tipping competition I tipped Port to win because of our injuries and players coming in not being match fit. I also selected Port to be my SAFE winning team in my knock out competition. I am ABSOLUTELY THRILLED to have been so very WRONG and completely KO'd!!!!! What a gutsy effort to snatch the game back when they were out on their feet. This team has what it takes. Go you MIGHTY DEMONS.
  7. They missed the grand final figure in 1956 when Bluey Adams and Des Healey collided. Melb V C'wood. 116,000. There were people spilling over the fence behind the boundary line and even some got up onto the roof of the Great Southern stand. About 25 metres up. Great view if you didn't fall. Thanks for getting those facts. Is that still an Olympic record?
  8. So, if we DON'T think we will make the eight we are not allowed to answer!!!! You drive a hard bargain.
  9. I don't agree with them BUT they are entitled to their opinion just like you and I. It's called freedom of speech!
  10. Sad to read of the passing of a very loyal demon, Clive Fairbairn. Clive played over 200 games with the MCC and was well known for his love of the Demons and the Melbourne Football Club. A "Rat of Tobruk, he was a life member of the MCC, and was awarded an OAM for his services to the game of cricket and encouragement of young kids. Surprised there was no mention of his passing on the MFC website.
  11. Absolutely spot on. The Bulldogs were forced to get rid of the ball in a big hurry all night because of our ferocious tackling and bustling. I thought our boys were magnificent and did not deserve to lose. BUT the men? in PINK had other ideas. Could not believe the field umpire twice bullying the goal umpire re his decision. Was it the same umpire on BOTH occasions? The Goal umpire, of course could still have signalled the goals (plural} as according to the rules he has the power to make his OWN decision unless HE has some doubt. Despite all this we have turned the corner. Look out the rest!!
  12. Yes, they have this strange mentality that the 3 votes MUST go to the WINNING team. Even if it is a 1 point win!!! Don't be surprised if the voting reads; 3. WB 2. WB 1. WB
  13. 6. Scully 5. Bruce 4. Bate 3. Grimes 2. Jones 1. Bennell Apologies to Jordie and Jack. Well done every Demon tonight.
  14. Can't say I 'm sorry to see Brad Johnson and Eagleton out. Johnson is always dangerous and Eagleton seems to lift against us. His little bald head seems to bob up everywhere. Makes me think we are a real chance. Wouldn't put my house on it though. I too think we missed McKenzie very much last week. He puts so much pressure on the opposition ball carriers. I love his skills too. In fact, I'm a bit worried he could end up even better than ME!!!!!
  15. Very clever Jaded! You are a sharp tack. Liked it.
  16. Repeat, watch the replay if you dare. I think you will be disappointed.
  17. I invite you to watch the replay to see how very wrong you are! He was clean and precise with his disposal today. Your football knowledge is surely lacking here.
  18. NOW WE KNOW FOR SURE YOU ARE YZE MAGIC. Only a MORON( or YZE MAGIC) would write that tripe.
  19. Naitanui's stats V Sydney; 2 kicks,3 handballs. Not in the same class as Jack. He's raw, so raw.
  20. Interesting isn't it? We lose and rise 4 places after our effort in round 2. We have a brilliant win against Brisbane, improve our % markedly but drop out of the 8. Imagine how disappointed we would have been if this happened in round 22. Ladder position or not the Dees were magnificent on Saturday night.
  21. Magnificent performance. A big plea though. Don't anyone spoil today by criticising any Demon player in this fantastic TEAM effort. Every player did his bit and wasn't Jack Grimes superb. What balance, skill and poise he possesses. I am excited!!!!!!!
  22. Great to see us reach 30,000 members during the week. The amazing fact about member # 30,000 is that she lives (wait for it) in COLLINGW##D!!! What a brave but sensible lady. At least ONE intelligent person in the area.
  23. When I saw Harriet Cordner's photo I couldn't help thinking how much she resembled Don Cordner. A descendant of the great man for sure.
  24. Ha,ha, very funny.
  25. What's happening with Sam Blease? Not on the injury list and not mentioned in the Casey report last week. Can anyone throw some light on this one?
