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

    Do you do it with milk? Guilty pleasure!

    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

    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

    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. 🙄

    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.

    The sexting was two-way. They were adults. Tim and he wife worked things out. End of story.

    Also, what’s a hooby, Deeves????😂

    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: 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.
