Are you taking your team of servants Uncle? Must be expensive to take such a large entourage. Lucky you are filthy rich...

Not that it's any of your business Moonie but I left the lazy buggers at home. They are a grieving over the maid it seems.

thought I might help out a few of the local poor folk but they are useless

Here I am in the wilds of Borneo ( only 4.5 star - can you believe) and when I request a red they serve up some Malbec cross bred from Argy land.Didn't Maggie teach them anything?

At least you can get a decent Rattan here, so I'll be handing out some jolly good thrashings

    What is this anti Argentinian Malbec diatribe I am witnessing Uncle. Think yourself lucky to be offered such a luxury in the third world. Invariably drinkable in my experience.

    Malbec! Bah! Leave it to those gaucho sheilas

    l realise you have close connections to the 'old country' Earl but jingoism must come first

    it is the sacred responsibility of Aussie blokes to slurp Shiraz at all times - except in times of urgent need when any slurp will suffice

    Wouldn't mind some poetic justice tonight, seeing Shuey limp off, not to return, with a hammy or whatever, at the 2 minute mark of the first quarter.

    See that Shuey didn't limp off,  but he did have a fairly quiet night for him. Some poetic justice.

    Things are quiet on this thread ATM

    I'd just like to let my many fans know that I successfully negotiated the perils of Borneo and am currently residing in colonial opulence in Singapore   The servants are satisfactory and my guts is returning  to a healthily bloated profile   Unfortunately the tinea is also ( along with a few other fungi I fear).

    I have given up on Redleg's "cure" but I met a local lady who runs an establishment that guarantees satisfaction   I am confident of a happy resolution

    I find Demonland so busy that I don't have the time to keep up with the number of threads and the volume of traffic.

    I have to a large extent given up trying.

    Is it just me?

    Bad news for Moon and his colleagues.

    Mastabatory breaks are about to be enshrined in the British workplace agreements.

    As if they don't exist already.

     

    It's the British way. Australia has inherited so much from the same British model, my dear friend.

    Bold prediction - 

    Both Melbourne and GWS will score the magical 200 points in a game in 2018.  GWS will do it twice.

    Smear crushed banana between your toes and goodbye tinea.

    Taking a moment to confirm Redleg's background is law, not medicine.

    I mean, obviously you're thinking of the remarkably similar treatment for tinnitus.

    Only Melbourne will do it against them in 2017 twice.

    Pop into the cricket club for  elevenses and give my regards to the bellboy at Raffles old pip.

    Will see you on return and remember to tape up the package BEFORE inserting it- not afterwards like last time.

    Having a listen now to last night's podcast with Andy and WJ. Interesting to hear Old Dee and Beelzebub referred to as the old guard, and of the demise of Wong's in Glenhuntly Road. What other pearls of wisdom will be revealed, I wonder?

    Bitter in Bangers 

    A very seedy bitter  I have club privileges at my Bangkok inn - free booze at the rooftop bar  Made a welter of it last night . Guts full of beer and into the red. An ordinary Chianti that became outstanding after about 6 glasses  The staff applauded me as they hadn't seen so much booze quaffed since a sumo visited a few years ago  A quiet chunder into the pot plants wasn't so well received 

    And some very good news! The tinea is in full retreat! A visit to the "Doctor Fish" did the business . It was an epic battle but the little B lighters stuck to their task manfully. Heavy casualties though as a good proportion of them ended belly up  Nevertheless Bitter's pinkies are currently pink

    Anyway toodlepip as I'm of to a place called "Soi Cowboy "   I believe there is a rodeo or some similar attraction

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
