    It seems that, once again, truth wins the day. There actually is a UBO dc.

    UNIVERSITÉ DE BRETAGNE OCCIDENTALE 

    Based in the Breton port city of Brest, UBO in June 2023 declared an ambition to be known as the "Oceanic university of France". While this aspiration led to some concern that other disciplines might be downgraded, it suits the university’s location and existing profile. 

    Founded in 1971, UBO has a roll of around 22,000 students, about two-thirds of them undergraduates, both in Brest and at its base in Quimper. 

    The 14,500 undergraduates divide between the faculties of letters and human science, sports and exercise science, science and technology, medicine and health, dentistry and law, economics and management.

    The student association motto is 'Brest is best'.

    Also, what is going on with the departments there?

    sports and exercise science - okay

    science and technology - yep

    medicine and health - mm-hmm

    dentistry and law - WHAT?

    Perhaps bitters, perhaps. I went to this job once where the bloke had been dead in a spa-bath for three weeks. The jets in the bath were still going when we walked in. The boss wasn’t too happy when I titled the job “human soup” within the report. I haven’t been able to eat a lamb shank since. 

    Ugh. Even regular spas accumulate a layer of white fat residue on the sides just like stewpots do if you don't clean them out right away. Knew a guy who had to drain out and scrape the sides of the AIS heated spas once a fortnight. You wouldn't think all those athletes would leave behind so much fat.

    I... respect the necessity of very dark humour. #ganzersyndrome

    Happy Australia day folks.

     

    With so many woke wankers telling me what I should or should or should not celebrate, I went and purchased an Aussie flag to adorn The Manor’s dog ute.

    First time I’ve done that. 

    ( The flag was made in China and purchased from a Lebanese operated thrift shop.  That’s multiculturalism at its best! )

    They're celebrating by having a national day of telling Muslims they don't belong.

    I wish I was kidding.

    Better not. The area is famous for its natural salt production and impenetrable hedges.

    Do they still bring tiffen out for those that like to safari?

    Might organise a hunt .

    Looking for Rickshaw and Pallanquin operators as we speak.

    Bitters prefers the pallanquin.

    I think the bumpy roads play havoc with his gout.

    Me-I rough it in the rickshaw and hunt straight from the seat.

    If theres a duck at 12 O'clock and I yell DUCK It can really slow down proceedings.

    Why does the cricket team have two all rounders?

    It's not even like one of them gets to bowl much .

    Carey is a good wkeeper but he's no batsman.

    We are effectively two batsmen short.

    If we lose, it’s because Head and Labuschagne were abysmal this match.

    Interesting also that we declared behind the WI score and we are within that deficit now.

    Un-Australian.

    I'm glad we lost.

    Hopefully they'll learn to shut up and just play cricket.

    Bad games.

    But lost at selecting two all rounders.

    We don't need six bowlers given the quality of four of them.

    It's just silly choosing Greene and Marsh.

    One maybe.

    Also there must be other options other than Carey who averages around 23.

    But credit to a great effort from a young Wi team.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
