Big win in front of a big crowd at the 'G - gotta love that ! Boys seem to be really enjoying their footy, and each other. Most importantly, we snared the 4 points; it would have been easy to settle for honourable losses this year, it's awesome to get the reward for our hard work and effort.

Not sure what I loved more, the sensational goal or that desperate chase and tackle. Kid's a gem, and seems to be improving with every game.

Nah, we just hold ourselves to a higher standard of debate on here Nut - Demonland is the Algonquin round table compared to what goes on in Parliament

and i wouldn't be surprised is there's a bit of misinformation in there to keep his true identity disguised..

I used to love listening to him on the old ABC 3LO football broadcast. Tim Lane, Peter Booth and Stan Alves would cover the match of the day, and Tommy and Swan McKay would provide updates and analysis from the next biggest game. He had a lovely voice, sounded like it had endured a lifetime of whiskey and cigarettes rather than endless cups of tea. One of the game's truly great characters. RIP

That goal was kicked from inside the centre square! What a gem, superb game tonight.

Me too, and I'd be surprised if they don't trade places when Kent returns from suspension. Byrnes really gives us SFA.

Our kicking really lets us down, specifically kicking to blokes on the lead. Far too many show too much of the ball to the opposition and sit it up on the marking player's head, making it easy for defenders to spoil.

Someone called it earlier in the thread, and here it is: (not particularly funny)

That was the night of the pink umpires fiasco if i remember correctly..

I saw a reference in another thread to Stu wearing lederhosen. Where is he? Mid-season trip to Bavaria?

Slacktivism at its very best!

It's pretty simple really. Don't [censored] with Jack Viney, and don't [censored] with the Melbourne Football Club.

wo0o0o0o-ho0o0o00!!!!!

18:01 Nathan Schmook: The vision is behind the goals vision, showing Viney "move into the path of the oncoming players". He was trying to get the footy!!

Doesn't sound like we addressed the "unreasonableness" of the original decision. Made valid arguments, but to be successful it had to address it in those terms.

David Grace QC

He was on our side the other night. Thought we had a strong case and would be cleared.

Bloody frame-by-frame examination... Show it in real-time and ask if anyone in the universe could have "spun out" of that collision?

Sorry if it's been answered already but do we get to follow proceedings like the other night? I've checked here http://www.afl.com.au/news/tribunal but it doesnt look like they have the same set-up..

This is what the tribunal thinks Viney should have done. Seriously.

You seem to know a lot about it jazza - weren't you in town recently?

I don't understand how it's even news. What's so unusual or novel about Biff urinating his way around the Gat in someone else's undies? Sounds like a fairly typical night to me...

Not that far back in the paper to hide this interesting yarn: http://www.theage.com.au/victoria/irishman-pleads-guilty-to-causing-500000-flood-damage-to-hotel-20140506-zr5od.html It's about a bloke nicknamed "Gaff" - but by transposing a few letters we can uncover the real story which is about "Biff" and the "Gat". A drunk Gaffney woke up just after midnight and walked out into the hallway and urinated. Wearing just a pair of underpants, Gaffney took the emergency exit stairs down to the eighth floor and turned on the fire hydrant valve, causing a large amount of water to start gushing out. Every floor below the eighth floor was soon flooded and guests had to be evacuated. Wet and naked, Gaffney then walked up to the 10th floor and woke up a guest in apartment 1001 who gave him a pair of underpants to put on.
