old dee

Sadly the time rules me out Mr. Leg and as I have no Foxtel I am destined to accept the wisdom of those on Demonland re our performance.

Simple fact there is no connection, different name, different colours. Little connection to the past. As you suggest for every new supporter they picked up there was another like me who dropped off. I feel no connection to United. Interesting that over the last decade as the Dees spiralled to irrelevancy I have got a lot more enjoyment watching second and third tier sport. There is no TV so you have to go. Perhaps I just hunger for a simpler time but I really enjoy being close to the action something that is totally missing in AFL

Great days R and b at the time I was enjoying it as much as the great MFC days.Instead of going with my father I had my daughter along. I know I am a one team person the Dees and the Tigers . I will be off to a few games this winter to see the Tigers in the Big V.

No matter how much I squinted dc I would know that I was amongst the frightful supporter group any interest in basketball?

Is the NBL dead it has been on life support for a few years now but the end may have arrived? I wrote the following elsewhere but thought I would start a thread here. Unlike most others I am a fan of Basketball and used to be a member of the Tigers. I quit when they became "united" . I still like basketball and this year will follow the Tigers in the "Big V' league. There was a time when the NBL was threatening to take on the AFL. I remember in the 90's going to Full houses at the Tennis centre on Friday nights. In my opinion it got a little ahead of itself and spent more than it could afford then moved to Summer and IMO lost its way. seems doomed now with two clubs in receivership another close and three being held up by wealth benefactors. It is said that the owners of Melbourne United have put in $7million over the last three years. It is gone I think and I as a force of one am disappointed. The up side is I can support the Tigers again. I wonder if I would do the same if the dees ended up in the Amos? I think maybe yes.

I know this is occasional a thread about Aussie rules but i have to make a comment about the impending doom of the NBL.

you are incorrigible bbo

Sadly Running late I hear Mr Leg after a late change from this morning to 1.00PM. Wonder if they will make Lunar Park next Sunday Was considering taking No.1 GD but at four she is not good at waiting

Mr Leg and dc there seems to be some problems with today's session No players I hear. I thought we had moved on from this sort of thing but it appears not.

No Mr Leg I got almost exactly what I expected.Happy with the result after all it is practise match no.1 I still think we have a bottom six list not a top four one like Freo. We are improving I think things are going to plan. I just think a lot of dees supporters imagine the list is way better than it is is. I think I have said before that 2016 is the year I think we will move up the ladder a fair bit. Nothinhg I have seen so far suggests I am wrong. Happy to be of course.

Good move DF.

Would appear to be the case DF.The Dons must think it is wonderful they are out of the news. More to come here.

Switching clubs Mr. Leg?

Sadly you are probably correct dc.But another year like that in 2015 and the noise will get higher.

Surprised no one has mentioned the GWS black hole. How long can this go on?

Sorry Earl I will try harder in future.

I quite like the Hawks They are everything we should be.

Chill out CF Life cannot be that bad surely.

My god we are old dc

Easy fix go back the previous locations.

What have you changed Mr. Leg?

Banana Alert Tropical Cyclone Lam is rapidly approaching Nth Qld . Things are looking grim. Pat has nothing on this I suggest a trip to the supermarket this morning to build up supplies before the price sky Rockets.

I would be more worried about the weather in Nth QLD. Not looking good for bananas!

Perhaps we should have taken him instead of Viney!

Oh gawd
