    Now Uncle, is it ever likely or in the realms of possibility that you are able to post without a smutty comment or innuendo. Is your private life completely bereft of beauty and sweetness.Ā 

    You do realise Geoffrey that your acting days have passed you byĀ and everyone has tired of the same lines. Your early work was entertaining and amusing but it has become tedious and frankly embarrassingly. Perhaps itā€™s age or fatigue with living but you seem so half hearted these days. You donā€™t know whether to hang up your boots or keep trying to run around the park.Ā 

    You do sound depressed these days, listless and just hanging on. Or are you now only aching in the places where you used to play?Ā 

    Well Ernie ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ as they say in the classics.... " beauty is in the eye of the whip holder"

    Fortunately Uncle tastes differ so beauty is not in the eye of the whip holder.

    Otherwise it would be like standing in human faeces and thinking that it is beautiful.Ā

    Enterococcus FaecalisĀ and Bactericides Fragilis say hello, and respectfully beg to differ.

    Itā€™s probably about perspective in the end.Ā

    Lighten up Ernie!

    When it all comes down to it we are kindred spirits. Same boat -Ā  being tossed around on the same meaningless sea of life.

    How very philosophical.

    From my perspective I attain meaning from the realisation that I am far superior to dreary old [censored] like you and Ernie.

    I wouldn't like to marooned on a desert island with any of you. Maybe Ernie, at least he could write...

    To diverge.

    On a research trip to WAĀ 

    Beer wine food and tourist infrastructure not DockersĀ Eagles or Hogans, have just experienced the Albany whaling station. Only recently abandoned and restored as tourist attraction.

    The harpoonist is the Skipper and was able to despatch the whale with an accurate delivery under what must have been quite arduous conditions.

    Just made me reflect on the same philosophical metaphor.

    Ā 

    Difficult to reflect on football draw related issues as the WA media cannot report on any issues outside the overwhelming significance of the Dockers and Eagles.

    Fascinating

    Up here in the home of the Gold Coast Suns for a short break. Havenā€™t seen a single siting of any GC Suns colours, either in the shops, or on any of the holidaymakers. That is a little unusual .

    Not at all. Have you seen the state of BBOā€™s manor or tasted his wifeā€™s cooking?

    Just at the moment the GC17 donā€™t have any players or supporters so thatā€™s not surprising.

    I usuallyĀ go every year to Day 3 of the Boxing Day test with a large bunch of former suburban cricket team mates, and relive our glory days in the Percy Beames bar.

    We are thinking of bringing our dayĀ forward to day 2 this yearĀ Ā ?

    Iā€™m hoping the MCC will have a stern word to the test XI first before dealing with the common public Ā 

    What should the teamĀ be called this year? Ā The Incompatibles perhaps?

    Canā€™t believe I have scheduled Foxtel to install a satellite on draft day, at the very time that the draft is on. Looks like it is DL on the computer, for me at draft time.Ā

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.Ā

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more Ā consecutive defeats.Ā
