    On hot dry days like this you realise how totally over rated and over crowded this collection of traffic we call Melbourne is,

    Does liveability take in sprawl, wasted time and expensive basic food?

    The Corporations have it sewn up.

    I know I'm venting but what a hole.

    Think you need to move to Romsey manor Biff. I hear BBO has a gimp room that needs occupying. The only traffic there is the illegal kind, of which you may already know

    Melbourne will be a whole lot better when we have a world class population, say 15,000,000. And the sooner the better!!!  Heck, São Paolo is the most populous city in the Southern Hemisphere. We can easily surpass them if we try a bit harder. We will all be better off if that happens. I have 50 square metres available in my back yard. More than enough room for 4 triple story town houses. Think how much money I can make doing that. Let's build a mass of apartment towers on the land currently occupied by the Botanic Gardens. It's only a miserable collection of old trees!!! Who needs them when there's money to be made building lovely housing close to the city??

    I'll shut up now. It's time to take my medication. And write to my friends in Rome and tell them how liveable and fabulous Melbourne is.

    They've mastered the 4 hour lunch , terrible knitwear tied over the shoulder, gelato ,stinky cheese,salami and tax evasion , as well as taxation, which they began.

    Although they have done little very recently, except enjoy their city, I think Rome is the most beautiful city I've seen.

    Agree , most over rated city in the world. All marketing and spin. Heading all one way. Down. Have been living away this year and you suddenly realise that Melbourne is becoming unaffordable and unliveable with the city ruled by developers, corrupt politicians and local councils and a dog eat dog mentality amongst the mob. Exciting city, no, dysfunctional, yes. It is becoming a city with no kindness or heart.  It is a city losing its soul. It is a city dictated by real estate, how to make a quick buck, poverty and desperation. Sorry, it has good coffee and food. As If we need more coffee and food. The only redeeming feature is the MFC. And this web site.

    Well Biff, even though the Greeks invented s ex, it was the Italians who introduced women to the concept.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
