Nice attempt to get rid of the pill in the tackle Watts. Not.
-
Score getting ugly now.
-
Dees looking drained and spent.

Dermot Brereton and Tony Shaw.... FFS Fox Footy is painful to watch, especially when your team if getting done.

Nah McQueen, because "this site needs me" is what he said. Bwahahahah!!!

The Freo midfielders look so much stronger than our guys. Saw Muzungo (sp?) out mark Grimes and it just looked like a 3rd grade kid against a 6th grader. Mundy, Fyfe, Crowley, all big, solid guys. Sylvia looks light compared to them, yet for us he was big bodied.

I find it difficult to believe there is a worse commentator that Brereton. It's all about him when he talks.

"Won't be too many coast to coast goals by Melbourne tonight!", by commentators. Suck on Kent's big one!
-
Jeezus! What's happened to Bernie's kicking skills?
-
Are you struggling with the quote button Uncle Glitter?

Battle of the back lines at this point. Which will crack first? Turn overs will kill us unless they are fixed.

On balance of libellous (note spelling) comments, you are coming out well in front Mr Gary BBO Glitter

Indeed, they were very well educated comments. Some of your finest. Nice.

Amazing how the umps are missing numerous howlers against the Kangas. Even the commentators are mentioning them in passing conversation as if it's an accepted part of the game. OPSM umps sponsors.... what a pisser! -
That's waaaaaay too close to the truth Colin... and quite disturbing.

If we were robbed against the Bulldogs, then North are getting robbed, beaten up, and left for dead by the umpires tonight. -
And paint on the team's colours?

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BILLY STRETCH
Moonshadow replied to e25's topic in Melbourne Demons
Hey, if we trade all of our picks away this year and next year can we take Billy in the 2016 draft as a mature aged 4th round F/S? Poor humour, I know.... -
Potential future at Melbourne University
Moonshadow replied to Axis of Bob's topic in Melbourne Demons
The University of Melbourne arguably have a history of taking over or being given other institutions and then using the resources for what best suits them, not the previous institution. Eg. VCA, Melbourne State Teachers College, Burnley Horticulture, the old Women's Hospital. They own a sht load of real estate in Parkville and Carlton. They'd love a new gym, pool, sports science facilities, but footy isn't their core business, and they would have little ongoing concern for the future of the Melbourne Football Club. Not saying they would take us over, just that upgrading facilities and infrastructure would be a much higher priority to them than little old us. -

And clearly the umps are not taking advantage of their OPSM sponsorship. -

I watched a 1992 Fitz vs Coll game on a long haul flight recently. What struck me (apart from how much Bruce McAveney sounded like a 11 yr old girl and Roos' mullet looked ace) was how few howlers the umps made and how quickly they did ball ups once the player was tackled and it was deemed 'no prior'. Rolling mauls were not happening. These days the ump waits for 3-5 seconds while the pack increases in size before pulling a decision out of their rrrse. The game was still quick, skills not so good, but very entertaining and definitely more open. While I understand this is often dictated by coaches and team plays, but I also strongly think that the umps can make it easier on themselves by not lingering upon a decision until the point where they cannot see WTF is happening in a pack of 5-8 players. -
Try a couple of crow bars Bitty, that'll get you rolling. Make sure all your bits are securely tucked in first.
