Might be selling a lot of ponchos for gather round.

Might need to change the name to Huddle Round.

Not only have they felt the need to make the plastic $20 (max.) rubbish bin thief-proof, but it’s encased in thick steel, with a dirty big padlock.

They wouldn't be that high tech in St Albans dc.

au contraire uncle, standard equipment in st albans. very useful.

anyway i don't see the problem if the bin is only worth $20. council would pay >$20 every time to get it emptied. Of course this assumes the thief takes the rubbish with him and given it's st albans they probably would

I think the thief would prefer to take the rubbish truck, rather than one bin with rubbish.

No self employed, so it’s leave and door slams behind me.

So your boss is too slack to sack you and you can't be bothered quitting.  That was my excuse. Bite the bullet Red you won't regret it.

So the would-be thief would have to pop into Cashies (Cash Converters) to buy a cordless angle grinder that he probs stole the previous day and sold to Cashies. Doesn’t make sense, Daise. 

You know you’re on the Sunbury line when…

It’s not the fact that he’s using a soft drink bottle as a pillow. It’s that he’s actually asleep, comfortably, even snoring!

Blues lose and it’s a great start to the new footy weekend.

They create a new record too, the first and also, only team atm, to have lost every gather round match they have played.

Thanks for the heads up Uncle Bitters.

So quite simply the place has run amuck?

Where was that firm hand , where was the 'discipline' 

The sanity of a long suffering Melbourne supporter has always been long understood ;) You cant be long suited in all things ......

I see you are hooked again BB. One post was all it took. It’s like a drug this Demonland - an evil temptation.

Perfect response as it wouldn't be stolen if it wasn't locked up.

I'm sure they will take the bin with them when they take the grinder back to $ converters.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • 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.
