    Does 'Redleg' mean 'Prince' where you come from?  I'm sure we can work that in there somewhere.

    Sacre bleu!! It has been nearly a day since someone has posted to this thread.

    Too busy following the Eurovision finals Maple. Calliope from Macadonia is on at the moment, she has me totally mesmerised and she has a reasonable voice as well. Our girl is due up next after the Lithuanian pretty boy.

    Julia Zemiro versus the Bristle Taylor? Forget the cat I love Julia and come to think of it Calliope and Dami.

    Hey uncle bitters, i was just thinking of those pygmy camels of yours and realised you haven't mentioned them for yonks. you haven't eaten all of them have you?

    What a nasty fellow you can be dc - I suppose it comes from living in Borewood. The lads were quite well but became distressed at the above reference. You know very well they are highly sensitive about particular ancestral associations. They are going out to stomp some wildlife as a form of anger management.

    To other matters.

    I am wondering how bookings for Earl Hood's overseas rip off   tour are proceeding? I've misplaced the itinerary BTW and just wondering if the stopover in Pyongyang was still on offer. Actually I have some concerns about Earl Hood. First the hirstute  Conchita mysteriously reappears while his main man Hudson appears to have fallen out of favour. Now it seems he is prepared to rough it on an overseas jaunt with some of the coarsest of Demonland's  hoi polloi. I fear the failed guava paste enterprise has impacted poorly on what lurks beneath that sensitive hipster bun.

    Finally I hold grave concerns for our immoderater from Hopping Dicks. It has been some time since he has graced us with his dulcet tones. In fact it was about the time that I initiated an investigation for malfeasance at the supposedly family run Hopping Dicks BDSM club.

    Some of us are forced to live in shadows that you who bask in the sun of technologically advanced civilisation can know little of, Uncle Bitters. It took me 23.5 minutes earlier today to post a brief and uncontroversial message on another thread and I only seem to have chanced by some glitch in misfortune upon the opportunity to deposit these words here now. 

    Telstra ... 'nuff said. Though I will go on anyway. What passes for an internet in these parts is under normal conditions a joke but for some time now it's been bedevilled (certainly not bedemoned) by some rolling outage thing. The NBN Co (although they've branded themselves nbn co in some sort of – what? – demotic gesture) in their infinite wisdom had Telstra install a fixed wireless broadband tower hereabouts not so long ago. Its reach ends at the bridge over Hopping Dicks Creek, some 500 metres short of our humble cottage. nbn co point out that their remit is to implement government policy, so it's hardly surprising that Mr Harbourside Mansion's haves/have nots understanding of the world should be played out metonymically in the various wakes and eddies of his time in charge of communications.

    We are now undergoing the indignity of applying for a satellite connection in the hope of some sort of regularity, but the contract is so thoroughly hedged by conditions about access and speeds that I fear we are only entering one of those English country estate mazes.

    In the meantime I will continue to lapse into inevitable and probably prolonged silences. Most here may entirely approve of that.

    At least we have bananas.

    You risking life and limb to leave the warm embrace of Borewood dc?

    It's a shame the the districts of Romsey do not have the same internet connection issues that you experience Dr Dickhopper. It would be a blessing to all here.

    You bringing any bluerinsers along dc or will they be recuperating from an arduous Saturday night?

    I'll be there too but incognito. If either Biffen or Moonie see me they hang about like groupies. Such is the price of fame I suppose.

    You really haven't missed much Dr.

    Earl and Hemingway are planning a trip to Spain to find a suitable replacement for Conchita.

    Bitters is applying to Romsey council for the title Marquis de Romsey.

    Moonshadow is abondoning his Marxist philosophy in the pursuit of social prestige and now sits in the members.Mercifully .

    Maple is now teaching bogus French and selling fake signed Celine albums .

    DC has the Zika virus due to his new Samba lessons but refuses to disclose it.

    Red and Blue still hooked on Zanax.

    Personally , mushroom season has me flat out working.

    Wow, there really is a Hopping Dicks Creek. All this while I thought it was just some whimsy on the part  of our learned Sire.

    So you're just down the road from the Boonies then ? :unsure:

    yes bb, and you will notice no doubt that hdc is right next to limpinwood, which just goes to show what happens with excessive hopping (though i haven't noticed it being a problem in burwood and surrounds - touch wood - npi)

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
