  1. Beyond sad. A young man gone way before his time .... so needless too. An example of how fragile life is.
  2. I go to virtually every Demons match at the G. But going to filth matches absolutely does my head in ... the filth team, coach and supporters make me (figuratively speaking) sick. So I won't go to any of their matches ... grand finals included. (I've been to every MCC GF since 2004 but didn't go last year ... thankfully.) So, sorry to all, I won't be there. Please cheer a bit louder to cover my absence.
  3. Great player. Even better bloke. Agree with all the previous comments. 💗💙
  4. Here's my take on it. Well done boys ... good win. (But GC were very disappointing.) Viney (obviously) played a blinder. And it was good to get games into the young fellas, who all showed a bit. Plenty of work to do over summer. There has been quite a bit of talk about the Dees' dour game style. You know, why can't we play more attractive/ attacking football? I think that the game style should largely be determined by the players on the list. We don't have too many excellent ball users, and so risky kicks inevitably lead to turnovers. I think our current game style is probably appropriate until we get more excellent ball users, and this should be a focus for recruiting and development. I wonder if Windsor has any younger brothers!
  5. I hate the filth so much. And their filthy supporters.
  6. Let's try for Ugle-Hagen and/or Bont instead. I remember years ago posters would say ... let's offer next year's first pick ... and Bate and Dunn!! Not sure who the current versions of Bate and Dunn are!!
  7. I got on it @ $1.45 at that time. I have bet also against the Dees for about the last 7 weeks. Didn't bet v Essendon. Needless to say, I'm well ahead. Money for old rope.
  8. I had fully intended to attend tonight's match. However, I am instead going to a celebration of life event for Bonnie the cat, who passed away a few days ago at the age of 18. Her owner (a Demons supporter) and her family are heartbroken. I hope that is a good enough excuse. C'mon Dees ... do it for Bonnie!
  9. "Schools there are many ..." I went there too ... about 100 years ago. Didn't like it much.
  10. Indeed he did. His mother was a Demon, father a Tiger. FWIW my son + Andrew were friends at primary school. We (me + son) went to many matches at the G with Andrew, his younger brother + mother. He was quiet, nice boy. He was (and still is presumably) intelligent, so will no doubt have a successful post football career. I tend to agree (and would like to think) that the hit on Brayshaw was an ill timed whack. Cost him a premiership medal.
  11. A pessimist is an optimist in possession of all the facts.
  12. I was at the GWS match. I wasn't at the Bulldogs match cos I play pickleball on Friday nights. (Confession: I probably wouldn't have gone even if I wasn't; I hardly ever go to Doglands. Hate it.) I will probably go to the Port match.
  13. Sportsbet currently offering $1.45 on Port. Juicy odds ... just put a few shillings on them. I'm sure the odds will shorten during the week.
  14. I don't really care who wins the GF ... as long as it isn't the filth, or Jee-long.
