Hey! Don’t forget when I first joined DL you made me cry by telling me I’m too positive! Does the name “Pollyanna” ring a bell? It should coz that’s what you called me. Now you’ve an issue with me being negative??!!

That's a shame, was hoping you might have had the gift.

Gift? GIFT???? How on earth is wrapping bits of wool around each other with sticks a gift????

LOL I went to a Catholic girls school and they made us learn knitting. Sister Margaret Mary said we’d need to be able to knit our husbands jumpers. I asked her what if we don’t end up with a husband coz maybe we don’t want one. I got detention. True story.

I'm waiting to hear  @Redleg acknowledge my outstanding football judgement for correctly predicting that Max would back up against Norf.

The above mentioned dared to suggest that I had been overindulging in the fruits of the vine. That, of course, is not in itself offensive...... but ...... to suggest that chateau cardboard was my intoxicant of choice is extremely rude!

 

Duly acknowledged and you no doubt will acknowledge my correct statement that the Schach would debut for us Saturday.

If I told you I love ❤️ Malibu the drink, would you hold it against me.

It doesn’t come in cardboard btw.

He chooses to live in far flung Romsey!
Bagging my suburb is almost a hobby to him, but at least here in Snorbs we enjoy clement temperatures.

My guess is both already blue and given long enough needles WSW could make them red.

My God what a disgusting thought! Why am I thinking about bitters balls?

Don’t worry WCW, Rustic Romsey is fast vanishing into the architectural beauty of housing estates and fast food outlets. I suspect Uncles estate is rapidly being surrounded by neighbours who would be unfamiliar with a cheese platter and red wine.

Sadly not the most practical appendages during a Romsey winter dc .

Although it’s a tight fit, I’ve found that one of my MFC long sox keep my package snug and warm. Just a thought for you to consider, Uncle.

Thanks but no thanks Neil.

Due to their prior location I don't envision using your "long sox" for any purpose.

Let's see... is that gouda, a blue, and maybe a cheddar?  Appreciate the unique but delicious inclusion of toasted olive bread on the side!

I notice DP that there is no bottle on the table - more evidence, as we all suspected, that his red comes from a cask?

Ooo very good observation NC...  we all know BBO wouldn't have a singular glass.  I suspect you're right about the hidden cask

Never thought of myself as one, but I do wear thongs occasionally.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
