There is absolutely nothing better than a glass of frangellico , a strong short black coffee and some vanilla ice cream.

Philistines , Mongols, barbarians at the front door ..... what is this thread coming to?

I have tried endlessly to add some refinement to this thread but , apparently, I have failed miserably.

I'll say it again. The only libation for a refined gentleman is .... of course Shiraz.

Follow Uncle Bitter's advice - you won't go wrong!

A good single malt scotch is without doubt better than any cheap, coconut sugar drink, even better than the young grape juice that some here quaff down

I rarely visit this thread, but honestly, enough's enough! Toughen up chaps, for god's sake! This ain't no '80's disco

An excellent plan Stiffy.

Certainly keen on a dram of whisky or a gin and tonic!  Recently have been drinking apple cider when the companionship are not keen on spirits

Every Friday night currently starts with sparkling wine, given it is served to me free and is less disgusting then the cheap wines on offer

Ta, Uncle.  So nice to have someone looking out for me!

But honestly I thought you may have just over imbibed based on the vomit reaction

Yep, Philipines galore. Hey, my brother, have you heard of Nebbiolo and Sangiovese and the dreaded fey Pinot Noir? And, what the f is wrong with the Noble Cab Sav????

As some will know, I try to stay away from this thread but again find myself inextricably drawn back into it's web. The first confronting thing I read is mention of BBO followed by the highlighted question/statement. Dare I keep reading I ask myself. I don't know how to unassociate the two but I curse my vivid imagination.

Stuart Broad would have to be the uncoolest cricketer ever.

Stokes and Bairstow have both definitely head-butted someone in a pub at least once.

Jimmy Anderson will be 41 next month. He’s been playing Test match cricket for 20 years. How on earth does his back hold up?

 When will Travis Head 86 that awful moustache?

 I wish we had this level of commentary in footy. Kumar and Tubby are chef’s kiss.

Never mind me, just thinking aloud. 🙃

I’d forgotten all about this. And now he’s their captain. All good, it was years ago, he’s changed his ways, blah blah blah, whatever.

Meanwhile Tim Paine is stripped of his captaincy and made to feel like the scum of the earth because he sent d*** pics to a consenting adult six years ago. Moreover, that’s the captaincy he was unexpectedly thrown into when our then captain, vice-captain and coach decided to cheat on the world stage. Cool. 🙄

Photography is a great hooby and nothing wrong with being proud of one's body. 

Well no sleep from the cricket but all good.

Tonight it's the lads over for Origin.

As a New South Welshman for 12 years,  I have finally come to enjoy league.  Although only the origin games. They're kind of like grand finals up here .

And then the big one tmrw.

Life's not too bad.

In this modern world of enlightenment and high regard for minorities, I am coming out and admitting, "I like Midori and really like Kahlua".

As for wine, I dislike reds and don't really like whites.

Shiraz-yuk.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
