Probably likes the trappings of being the head honcho but hates circulating amongst the common folk.

He actually enjoys meeting the common folk and is well known for that.

    not against the idea, but i'd like a heck of lot more detail on what a republic would look like and what constitutional changes would be made

    there are some very, very ordinary republics around the world

    Even more very ordinary monarchies in history.

    I am in a quandary.

    Which is better, a crunchie bar or a violet crumble?

    Both chocolate and honeycomb.

    Jeez, we really confront the big issues on this thread.

    We do and here is another one.

    Is the old Crispin Bar just a poor imitation of the Tosca bar?

    Don’t ever say we don’t throw the cat amongst the pigeons?

    I think Violet Crumble is nicer - the soft but still crispy texture is great.  Also can be a bit caramelised which is satisfying.  A crunchie bar is a bit too crisp for my tastes

    "Time for a Tosca" after that sacrilegious comment Red!

    The Crispin was my childhood favourite and I have often pondered the reason for their extinction

    Yet some may argue, as crucial as the question raging across DL of late...

    "Should Petty play forward or back?"

    FWIW i'm voting for ye olde classic Violet Crumble.  One of my fav Royal Show bags as an ankle biter.

    They should get rid of picnics, nuts do not belong with chocolate just like pineapple doesn't belong on a pizza.

    The old Polly Waffle wasn't bad but it it paled in comparison to Lollie Gobble Bliss Bombs. Oh how I loved devouring them.

    Both chocolate and honeycomb.

    The chocolate on a violet crumble sticks too firmly to the honeycomb.  The choclate on a crunchie can be nibbled off leaving the honeycomb to be wolfed down.  This is the correct way to eat a crunchie but don't let anyone watch you.  They may come over all unnecessary.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
