Is Inglewood in Victoria a nice place to be?

Posted

Depends what you want, nice small country town north of Bendigo. Medically Bendigo is well resourced . If you are a gold fossicker it’s is part of the golden triangle and they regularly find nuggets some quite large. Cold in winter can be as hot as hell in summer.

Why do you ask?

My great grandparents were born there, but they moved to Collie so my great grandfather could work in the mines.

My eyes are not working too well today as all I can see is that their colours are blue. Just can't see the other colour so I assume that it is red!

Gee, 8-0 who would have thought?

9-0 does have a better ring to it though.

I would like 9-0 but prefer a flag. Hate to think we are undefeated all season but loss the grand final.

Haven't ventured into here for a while. Noting recent streak discussion. Football talk? How did that happen?!

While I'm here, what's all the banana talk? Not knowing is giving me the 'Banana Splits' (cue references, video of cult '60s/'70s 'children's' TV)

They’re actually similar to Carlton’s jumper - or they were 2 years ago when my sons played against them. They are in the Loddon Valley league - and they are struggling. However they are still fielding an u/18s team which is a credit to them. 2 years ago nine of the 10 teams in the comp had an u/18s. Now there is only 4! 
Covid has smashed country footy at the lower age levels in particular.

Spot on you are correct spalding. It is the soccer club that is yellow and blue.

Don’t scare me like that OD. Your reminder me of my pre 1999 support for that turn coat club I vowed to never support again after  our loss in the 1998 WAFL Grand Final! That was to day I decided to support another team in the AFL. At the time I was thinking of supporting MessyDrugs because they had a few ex West Perth player. Thank the gods I decided to support another club that has the best team colours and song!

I see now why my Great Grandparents decided to move to Western Australia, their local soccer team colours. Who can blame them?

I doubt the soccer club existed then.

Looks like the Weid issue is solved, with Jackos busted finger, keeping him out for a week or two.

Whoever wants must provide a pick in the first five this year and their first round pick in 2022.

    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.

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
