Been a mixed week so far for poor old Uncle Bitter.

1.I'm helping Biffen tidy up some of his messy business interests. Interesting but his promise of financial reward seems unlikely.

2. Visited my GP today and she advised me not to make any long term plans.

3.Finally some mirth. Pendles and his missus named their sprog "Jax" . FM where does that come from? I suppose the filth supporters will consider it sophisticated. Jax!!! FMD!!

that's apple iphone auto-predictive text for you, uncle

next they'll do away with teachers ......... just plug babies directly into a computer at birth and leave it to dr google and professor apple

and names will be replaced by numbers (just like footballers)

Is she intending to whisk you away Uncle?

I could cope with that.

Make sure your passport is up to date and that your date is passable (in a doctor way)

I wonder which Melbourne will turn up on sunday.

The Norf one, and hopefully the Real one.

Just finished the week attempting to help Biffen tidy up his affairs at the Gat.

It's cost me fuel for the Merc, tolls, lunches etc. Plus the physical burden of moving his equipment.

Neither a word of thanks nor any of his promised recompense.

[censored] ingrate!

It's been a bad week for me too Uncle. A slight accident on the way home yesterday, taking a short cut via Merri Creek.

Well we can now wash ourselves of that silly game of football for the year. Was intruding on the serious pursuits; crosswords  jigsaws and truffle hunting.

Word from brethren north is the yellow cropping not as harshly affected by nasty weather as possibly might have been but dont expect cheap fruit. 

Might buy and freeze...one needs a supply for daiquiris ;)

Dear Uncle I got given a home made Shiraz called "Dirty Olman", circa 2011 I have had a glass of this previous and it tasted great. Given your social contacts and ability to move in ever diminishing rare circles of confounded conolutions, I wondered being of simlar volition to the main entreaty! Have you ever come across this delicious Drop?

Well picket, I've been called a "Dirty Olman" on more occasions than I can remember but, as to that particular libation, the answer is no.

Try a Cabernet next time. Has much superior genetic cache. Stop slumming in lowly Shiraz land.

I can't imagine picket drinking anything but cheap red Earl. After all, he is not of the genteel class.

Still we must indulge the hoi polloi from time to time I suppose

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
