Thank you for your support DC. You have obviously worked your way through a similar experience.

BTW I have have exhorted Biffen to join this conversation , as his input would be invaluable, but alas he has sucumbed to the pleasures of the flesh and is currently unavailable.

In that case, Biff should only take a min or two to join us.

That's the one. I remember pouring quite a bit into a young lady (I was quite sophisticated even then) and she chucked in my Kingswood.

Just natural evolution DC.

Not the Kingswood! I just put a new tennis ball on the tow bar! :cool:

Well before political correctness become the norm. I doubt `The Naked Vicar Show' would make it as a title today, and as for characters like Leo [censored] ...

God! How embarrassing (cringe cringe) and pizz poor was Aussie tv in those days?

I think in 30 years we will be saying the same thing about reality TV shows - biggest losers, master chit, big boring brother, the blockheads......

Actually, in 30 yrs time I may not be thinking much at all, perhaps not thinking at all.......

It is not exactly kicking goals from all parts of the ground at the moment, either ...

The way I see it Kingswood Country was to television what the No T$ No B$ Thread is to Demonland - cutting edge, state of the art satirical and biting social commentary without borders of boundaries. In other words, pure unadulterated crap. However, like the TV show and the Kingswood vehicle it is typically Australian and for some obscure reason remains one of our longest running threads and for that, the usual contributors should be proud.

The comments on the thread I will let go through to the keeper.

As for Kingswood Country and the like. I think it is reasonable to say that it reflected the Australia of its day - a rougher, cruder and arguably simpler place than today (which is not necessarily better or worse, just different)

Surely in the context of this thread, those words are highly complimentary.

And yes, it was the creation of a great man and former board member of the MFC. It's not acceptable for anyone to say anything derogatory on Demonland of anyone who held such a high and esteemed position of eminence.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
