I presume you haven't quite got the hang of this virtual reality thing when you're practising your disciplinary techniques, BBO.

As for the local group, who pays fees until they're obliged to? They're looking forward to your efforts to pursue that obligation.

Arrgh, there's the rub, now I can see why you are a Dr Dr, and not just your standard garden variety alchemist.

You have spanked the nail on the head!!!

You see, my life is virtual reality - I think.

    Went to the family day with Mrs. Redleg, our daughter and grand daughter number 1. Biggest crowd at a Dees family day in the last few years.

    My wife, daughter and GD were there Mr. Leg.

    all enjoyed it. They were surprised at the numbers.

    Mrs OD was impressed she saw no bogans and thought the supporters were nice.

    I have been telling her that for 45 years obviously Pies supporters are slow learners.

    What did she expect when we have such fine upstanding supporters as BBO, Earl Hood and Biffen?

    I am seeking advice from my fellow Dlanders. It has recently come to my attention an accusation that my favourite scullery maid, Conchita has been stealing from my wine collection! I have checked the cellar and yes there are bottles of Tempranillo, Sangiovese and Merlot missing ( could be BBO though) but then again my bookkeeping on these matters can be a bit erratic at times. I however feel betrayed, I brought my helper over from Columbia for her unique cleaning skills on a 457 Visa. I offered her the median wage of $55K per year and the usual requirement that she accompany my main Man, Hudson to the ATM to withdraw $500 every week to put back to our housekeeping fund. What more can I do?

    Fear not Earl. I can put you in touch with helpers who can take your wine for a far lower annual wage. I can have them drain the contents and return the bottles with an appropriate substitute. Might even do it myself.

    I had to push many children aside to get on the free rides before 11am. Also had to shove some kids and grannies aside to get selfies with the players .I am surprised so many turned up to sunny St Kilda and next year I will be selling some merch to the kids from the famous Garwick. 

    That is if we haven't been bulldozed by the white shoe brigade.

    Well your pay is certainly reasonable Earl but does Conchita  adhere to the ..err .. "appropriate" dress code for one of her station?

    As the for above "wines", you should be thankful they are gone from your collection. Fill the gaps with some decent shiraz.

    I recall someone pushing Mrs. Redleg out of the way, it must have been you.

    Fortunately for Biff he did not push Mrs OD as the wrath of a Collingwood supporting grand mother would have been more than he could have defended.

    With or without her umbrella!

    Wouldn't think so Moon. One of Earl Hood's aristocratic background and breeding would insist on his maids being clean shaven, surely?

    Yes, but Earl is a sophisticate with great taste in emerging music talent. Amongst other, er, how shall I say...... dutiful obligations, I reckon he'd like his servants to sing for their supper.

    Are you referring to Earl's droit de seigneur, Moonie? I'm sure tradition and bloodline would expect nothing less.

    Hey Bitter 

    I was perusing the commercial real estate lists recently ( As I am sure many of us do ) and I NOTICE THE FREEHOLD OF THE GAT IS FOR SALE - VACANT POSSESSION!!!! TRUE OR JUST A RUMOUR? WHAT ABOUT THE IN-MATES, WHERE WILL THEY GO?

    Well I have visited The Gat on occasion - purely business you understand - and as such business can be conducted elsewhere its sale will only impact on me for reasons of nostalgia. 

    Biffen, however, as a resident of said establishment has not been the same since its sale was announced. If you wish to know more, I suggest you raise the subject (cautiously) with him.

    A very civilised idea ( if you are of the male aristocracy).

    Anyway doc who has the primae noctis   rights in Hopping Dicks? I imagine that would be just one of many arcane rituals prevalent in your neck of the backwoods.

    Good doctor, until same sex marriage is legal in this unfair land,  droit de seigneur is moot in so far as Earl's servants are concerned

    Good heavens a simple request for advice about one of my employees degenerates into smutty discussions, as if between a group of year 7 boys of transvestites and lords taking first dibs at the local village virgin. No wonder I try to limit my contact with the proletariat!

    I did not pick you for a Scotch Collegian Earl but now that you've revealed the boarding house rituals I suppose Le chat est libre de Le sac.

    may as well reveal the truth about our democracy and the masons now. You've really given too much info to the peasants who are,as ever, revolting.

    Jackaub, 

    fear not- yours truly will make my usual 7 cents in the dollar for every single transaction that involves actual money.my asset base, my lovely collegues here, have new digs arranged by moi. Many of them have organised pre payment and wisely deposit their down payments every second Thursday .the future of these wise and thrifty travellers is guaranteed. With the advent of global warming- the homeless need only fear the rising tides of the ocean and not the winds of change.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
