Your poor old uncle bitter is not feeling very chipper today. 
At the completion of yesterday’s long lunch. an old friend , and my good self, decided to pay a surprise visit to another old friend. 

Said old friend owns a reception centre which boasts a cellar containing 60’000 ( yes 60k ) bottles of wine. 
Great plan !!!!! FMD!!!!

And then you found out you were direct descendants of Lord Mountbatten and had inherited a series of Loire Valley Chateaux, which is awful because you just know how dusty those things get.

The dusty wine will fit in beautifully at the dusty Manor.

I am moved to tears by your heartfelt concern red.

I am not sure, but I think I am perceiving a hint of sarcasm.

Love that female Dees team, they are fantastic.

My favourite, number 5 Tyla Hanks.

The fact that Pickett hasn't been on to this by now is of huge concern.

Hope he's ok!

He's been vomiting his way across and over 'land' for many days now

Welcome to big school....

[Redleg 37,685]

We have really thrown away a potential flag. We beat both those GF sides this season.

[Bitter but optimistic 21,286]

Yep we let this one get away. No doubt about it.

Just us and Essendon, who beat us.

Go figure.

And yes, we did. But I'm hoping to enjoy 2024 on its merits, not with baggage.

And meanwhile we've got this:

Nowhere near Brisbane..you're kidding yourself. 

Everyone in the top half can have a win..its winning when it's tough or when it matters that makes a genuine Premiership team.

Both those sides also beat Melbourne this year...and how does the record vs Carlton fit into your rather childish argument 

[layzie 28,935]

Need to up the game to stay with those.

Sorry, IRW; it did sound like I was mounting an argument. But, as 'Mad As Hell' (aren't we all?!) character Chris Lorax would say, it was 'Just a bit of fun...' Missed the mark, obviously.

And anyway, embarrassingly, I think I did get my facts wrong: was it Collingwood and Carlton only we and Essendon beat?

Nice to be considered childish, though, approaching the big Seven-O! (see, I can't help myself😁)

[Redleg 37,685]

Well at least we didn't kick badly this weekend.

I'm making pork dumplings for dinner.  Think I'll pop the AFLW game from Friday on while doing the wrappers.
