Official Match Thread Season 37 - Round 9 - Mount Buller Demons v Ophidian Old Boys at The Snow Dome

[cooney]

Good morning folks!

With three twenty somethings in the house, all the eggs I bought on Thursday seem to have disappeared. Our two remaining chooks aren't laying so off I go to brave the shops one more time.

If I'm not back in two hours, send a search party.

Sounds like a plan

Good win for Carlton that against the Roos. We could've won by even more if we wanted to as well. In fairness the Roos have a fairly young team. They could be decent enough in another five years imo.

They did bring our lead down to four goals at one stage. They probably should've beaten the Dockers last week as well. North Melbourne do seem to be better than last year to be fair.

Yep definitely agree

It's not as manic as I thought. Maybe this afternoon it'll get a bit tougher. Eldest offspring is working today in retail. Hopefully it'll be ok.

Most of Melbourne are camping along the Murray river.

Gralin grab a couple of bags of ice and put them in the bath and put yourself in there for a couple of minutes up to your armpits and get out dry off walk around for 5 minutes and then do it again. You’ll hate life for the two minutes I. There but I can guarantee you’ll be able to bend over to put your own shoes on in the morning.

Ice baths are life - nothing has made a bigger change to my recovery than these

Understandable, given its popularity.

DERO good news I can bend over

Bad news was the cats made a mess I needed to bend over to clean up

Yeah, but I think it best if those Dolphins just keep working out. Like, a lot. Get back on the horse is my advice. If you are sore today, go back to the gym and work out twice as hard. And don't stretch or anything, before or after. That's the best way to approach it.

Yeah but you have four legs and I have two, so that’s also a massive advantage!

You know how I feel about cats.

 

[Gralin]

You know how I feel about cats.

But how do you feel about cats2rise

do you know much about Wim Hof?

I read something about starting the day with a cold shower but I couldn’t do it. The old start the day by eating a frog in the morning and then nothing that happens to you for the rest of the day could be any worse method.

 

[Gralin]

Yeah no thanks lol

Haha I do know Iceman, he takes everything to the extreme though. But the evidence has remained positive for decades now re cold therapy either in general or after X amount of time post exercise depending on the activity and physiological changes you’re trying to achieve.

I do love the cold shower thing (but have now invested in an ice bath), however to be quite honest a bit part of me wonders if it’s just me being a morning person and what the effects would be on someone who isn’t or who struggles to move in the early hours.

 

[thewizardmelon]

As for the breathing part - mixed evidence but I’ve seen some asthmatics see great results and others with lung impairments see no difference. I’m inclined to believe less in the breathing part personally

It is a breakfast food so unfortunately finding a matching wine might appear a touch alcoholic

[sausageroll]

Now that's a throwback to the good ol' days

We should catch up and reminisce again sometime

A nice Heathcote Shiraz would be perfect.
