Keeping in mind this thread prohibits B$   .. I'm detecting the 'aroma' of the Elephant variety these days..    more and more.

Yes the strength is rising. It seems that every subject is treated with silence by those in power. It appears we are as usual just excepting all the [censored] the media and others dish out.

    Can we try a Although come to sub thread of Rhyming slang here?

    Cockney Slang like Bristol cities can also be included.

    But I'm very interested in Australian ones.

    JimmyGrant ( immigrant) apparently gets the nod for one of the first ones recorded.

    Australian idioms and sayings like as Happy as Larry will be permitted if they are explained.

    Interesting the origins of who Larry was are somewhat obscure. Some believe he was a boxer.

    Although if I met someone who spoke not stop RS, I'd be inclined to kill them.

     

    Melbourne supporter Titus O’Reilly covered the saying with Mick Malloy on their excellent podcast Sports Bizarre a while ago. It refers to an early Australian pugilist Larry Foley (1847 - 1917) who never lost a fight. He retired happy at 32 after collecting a purse of £1,000 (probably close to $1m today) for his final fight.

    I was wondering.  And I was always very good at mathematics. Algorithms have a lot to answer for.   Still.  A healthy mind in a not so healthy body. And the ads do bring a smile to my face.  I will just put up with it.

    Dear, sweet 640… you do know there’s places on the internet other than Demonland that are teeming with Bristols, right? These sites are also free, and you don’t have to trawl through the MFCSS in order to see said Bristols… and they’ll bring more than a smile to your face 😜

    What ever floats your boat, but I like reading demonland and watching pretty things. But fishing on the internet is not my thing.

    question.  Does it matter where you get your appetite, if you only ever eat at home.

    Doesn’t matter in the slightest. Unless of course your appetite is being whetted at an inappropriate place, for example, your mother-in-law’s house. 🤭

    Always got on well with both Mother in Laws. Eventually not so well one wife.

    cannot wait for the game this week. Then the real stuff. Time for the team and FD to become cohesive and if you excuse me HARD.

    Yeah, it’s not a footy act.

    Unless of course your feet leave the ground and you wilfully slam your shoulder into your unsuspecting wife’s head, knocking her out cold and consequently ending her career. Then it IS a footy act.

    'Lefty' Orchard was not me, Neil.

    However, whatever it is that you have noticed about me is evidently possible in a right-hander.

    Greetings erstwhile bs wordsmiths. It’s been wayyy too long since I dipped my big toe into the murky swamp of this thread. What’s become of all my favourite warriors? Bitters, Old Dee, Frog, Hemingway. Have you drowned in a puddle of single malt /shiraz/ debauchery (BBO)? Have you lost your way and actually now discuss football? Surely at least one of you will be talking about the boys training up a storm? Helloooo?

    Might ring Michael Warner for a few names, as being an expert in tearing things down, he should know a few people who can rebuild.

    you could also try Shaqiri and Kutlesovsky who are real expert developers and demolitionists.

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
