Winners at last

The Dee's what? BTW, It was a 62 year drought.

Yeah, me too. But Wikipaedia never lies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Point of order. Demons were actually ahead when the siren went in that match. GC player had a shot after the siren, but missed.

He was "lucky" to play 60 games. Good on him. _______________________________________________________________ Alistair "Big Jack" Nicholson played over 100!! And was on the list for 11 years!!!! Making his debut in 1997 in the number 8 guernsey, the large figure of the man known as "Big Jack" was a strong presence in defence for the Demons. Nicholson, a specialist key position defender, was most suited to full-back and was much maligned during his career, described by critics as "old, slow and useless" and "unfashionable".[1] However, Nicholson was shown a lot of faith by coach Neale Daniher, and was signed on until the end of the 2007 season.

Yeah, he needs to be more conspicuous. It was help if it was a bit taller.

The Fat Controller (Craig Willis) performed his magic.

Those 4 blokes talking about Couch are ripper blokes. I've come across a couple of them. Very genuine, and not meatheads.

I hate Campbell Brown. How a thug like him gets a media gig is beyond me.

Any of the 4 nominees would have been a worthy winner

He was "amazing". But not in a good way.

Cheers BB. Mauriesy, with all due respect, pointing to one match/result in isolation is hardly statistically significant. Applying the same logic, MFC is a top 4 side on the evidence of beating GWS!! The effort against Geelong was deplorable. The Melbourne side was totally cooked by the last round. And played accordingly.

Geelong finished 10th last year. Dangerfield dragged them to the top 4. God help them if he gets injured. A very ordinary side, topped up by a gun player.

I went to a ladyboy show in Thailand a couple of years ago. (With my then girlfriend.) It wasn't at all like a strip show. Pretty much just miming and dancing. I'd imagine the Melbourne show would be fairly similar. I can't imagine it attracting much of an audience here. It's pretty much just a tourist thing to do while overseas.

I have followed the Demons since 1968. 48 years. No premierships. And TBH, none likely in the next few years. MFC member for years. AFL set up a brand new club. Concessions + concessions. GWS may well win the flag this year. In their fifth freakin year!! Or if not this year, within the next 2. Long suffering and loyal supporters of Melbourne, Footscray + St Kilda haven't seen a flag for 60 years +. (Or, depending on age, not at all.) A manufactured team is likely to win one within 5 - 7 years of its inception/creation. Something about all this doesn't seem quite right.

Somewhat ironic that 4 players were nominated for Rising star, and he wasn't one of them!!

Eeeek!! I think I just did a little sick in my mouth.

It's got worse than that. My son (born 1993) was offered restricted membership at age 15 or 16. My thirdborn (born 1998) was just offered that wanky Provisional Membership recently, at age 18. She won't be offered restricted membership until she's 20, or more likely 21. The wait for full membership after restricted membership will be (another) 20 years. Back in the day, I was on waiting list for about 9 years before becoming a restricted member, and about another 10 or so years for full membership.

It's an awful admission, but I was actually barracking for the filth today. I would have loved to see the poos/wees drop out of the top 4.

I thought the same thing. Had a lucky year with injuries. Certainly can't expect that every year.

Geelong must be regretting letting S. Johnston go. He's the icing on the cake for GWS.

Patton could be the dominant forward in the finals.

It will be carnage.

EXCUSE ME!!! There is only one Bingers .... and that's me!!!

Like most others I don't like Harvey. Nor Firito. Fairly indifferent towards Petrie. Del Santo seems like an OK bloke. I hate Norf. I presume they will lose during the first week of the finals. Terrible way to deal with these players though; looks like "taking out the trash"!!

The team certainly carried out those instructions well!!!
