Bitter but optimistic

As long as they do the job dc they can call themselves what they want.

Good god Mable, do you Cambodians have spies everywhere?

Very humanitarian of you Stu - perhaps you go and help some earthquake victims?

I am not outdated at all Biffen - I have a female masseur.

Where have you been Stu? I've missed your subtlety in responding to other posters.

Arrrh picket you drug headed imbecile!! Happily I am able to walk again - with assistance and the skin grafts appear to be taking. I have a private detective tracking you down picket ( I suggested they concentrate on slum areas) and then the I shall send the lads around to stomp the [censored] out of you.

Earl Hood I assume you were suitably disguised during this licentious rampage. While we of the genteel class may freely make use of the females from the lower classes it is best to be discreet about it. They may start to consider that they have some rights otherwise. Just look at Saudi Arabia FFS - the sheilas want to drive cars!! Where will it end?

I'll forgive you for the company you keep Jane.

"First quarter and a half was some of the worst footy I've seen us play and we were on track for a 3 figure thumping. To our credit our effort improved and we showed good fight. Our skills around the ground and at goal hurt though (8 goals 11 to 10 goals 4 after quarter time) and we were too stagnant. If Melbourne supporters are happy and pumping themselves up after that then they're kidding themselves and will never be anything other than a bottom 4 side. Had we turned up for 4 quarters it's a different game and probably a different result." Took the above off Big Footy What else could you call them but "The Filth"?

I am so happy that I am admitting to a man crush for Stuie.

Vince and Jeffy (if fit) are absolute ins. Outs??? Brayshaw got a head knock. Oliver didn't do a lot but what he did was fine. Tough one.

Yes, I tried to fit Pedo in also. Probably his best game.

N.Jones. Was there for 4 quarters J.Watts. Consistent. A target. Usual good disposal. McDonald. Pace and agility in defence and no shockers, Viney. Tough at the contest as usual. Gawn. Gave us plenty and had impact around the ground. Wagner. Very impressive. Attacking. Takes the game on and backs himself. Armchair view.

This could be a season defining win. It was a win we had to have to be credible. THE DEMONS ARE BACK!!!

If we don't win this one you can forget all the hype and pump ups and recruiting etc etc. If we don't win this one - season over. If we don't win this one we are a terminally [censored] up club.

Bastards all of you!!

Well good evening all! Must say I should be feeling fine. I am in a comfortable warm bed. Big telly on the wall and some delightful young ladies applying oils etc to my person. OF COURSE I'M NOT WELL.!! Yes picket, your remedy certainly cured the fungal infection! In fact the fungi rats deserted the bitter ship at the first sniff of your panacea. Unfortunately SKIN ( my skin) followed immediately. I am currently enjoying the amenity of a major burns unit. When I can walk again, I shall [censored] you picket.

I agree that [censored] up did cost us the game. An unbelievable brainfade. But would I drop him for that one instant of stupidity? No.

Clearly Brayshaw and Jeffy are best 22. If fit they are in. Bugg is one out - so Garlett is first in. Frost for mine is the next out and Brayshaw in. I know that creates height / match up imbalances but [censored] that, we need those two in our best side.

Neither.

I think it is time for moderation Biffen. Doctor Hopping Dick is, I believe, an authority on "holding" - I will defer to his decision.

Notjhing wrong with a good whipping Jesse!

6.Viney - Has become our key indicator - no Viney no Melbourne. 5. Gawn - Took the next step to challenging for AA ruckman 4. Oliver - tough little bastard. Given time Oliver and Viney will cause some serious injuries. 3. Hogan. Great comeback and some very creative work. 2.Jetta - Busted a gut. Courageous. Great anticipation. 1.Henrietta. - He attacks the contest and does terrific one percenters.

Hate to say it but that shitfull brainfade from Watts cost us the game.

Weeds is still a weed picket - if we see him at all it won't be until near season's end. Petracca - I'm tipping in two or three weeks.
