Is Inglewood in Victoria a nice place to be?

    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.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
