Sorry to interrupt the love fest peeps but is it time to become a Republic based on the coronation celebrations?

Who do you want to dig you out of the snow, a St Bernards or a beagle with ambition?

The political system has thrown up Prime Ministers Morrison, Abbot, Rudd, Turnbull, Keating, etc.   Shrinking violets to the man with hubris unknown.  Be Afwaid be vewy vewy Afwaid — (Elmer Fudd c. 1956)  Any mention of a recent State Premiers will cause this thread to self-combust.

    Not to forget the unbelievable Bertie Beetle show bag, a perennial favourite.

    Yes... queue was often immense &/or they were sold out by time you got there.

    Seem to recall Bertie being a mostly 'Show' cult fan fav vs outside of there 🤔

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

    Pineapple pizza... culinary cardinal sin!

    Bit harsh on the choco side though Azz!  

    Some choc coated peanuts perhaps?  Sultanas?

    Now that i know you're into pineapples, how about my late old man's fav below?  Problem with this one was if you only liked one or two sections the rest usually ended up in the bin.

    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.

    A good contribution to an important discussion.

    Yes the Freddo Frog was a bigger seller back then.

    While the frog could be plain chocolate or filled with different fillings, Bertie made do with some honeycomb bits in the chocolate.

    I'm betting that daisycutter chose his showbags based on which ones contained a phantom comic 

    At the risk of changing the topic, I was never into the Phantom, I was a Superman boy.

    Can we ever forget the White Knight bar?

    I had until now. What about the crazy maze? Or was it Krazy maze, is it still around?

    Also haven't seen the pepermint crisp around. My mom used to smash it up and decorate the old Pavlova. 

    I also remember the Coleman's chips showbag. Bags were all under a dollar and were good value.

    Apologies Daisycutter. I had a Phantom book from the early 90s published by DC but it might have been a re-print/re-boot.

    Oh no, I love pineapple flavoured lollies and the goo in the snack bar. Strawberry goo in a strawberry Freddo is da bomb!

    No I'm not harsh on nuts being in chocolate, it ruins chocolate and should be made illegal with punishment of death.

    Serious question guys.

    How come everytime I try and load a photo onto a DL post it says too large, when everyone else loads videos, large photos etc.

    What am I doing wrong.

    Could be that you've ran out of attachment allotment. You only get 39mb (well that's my limit) so you may have to delete some old attachments.

    Either that or what you are attaching exceeds the total attachment size of 10mb

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • 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.
