Might be selling a lot of ponchos for gather round.

Might need to change the name to Huddle Round.

Not only have they felt the need to make the plastic $20 (max.) rubbish bin thief-proof, but it’s encased in thick steel, with a dirty big padlock.

They wouldn't be that high tech in St Albans dc.

au contraire uncle, standard equipment in st albans. very useful.

anyway i don't see the problem if the bin is only worth $20. council would pay >$20 every time to get it emptied. Of course this assumes the thief takes the rubbish with him and given it's st albans they probably would

I think the thief would prefer to take the rubbish truck, rather than one bin with rubbish.

No self employed, so it’s leave and door slams behind me.

So your boss is too slack to sack you and you can't be bothered quitting.  That was my excuse. Bite the bullet Red you won't regret it.

So the would-be thief would have to pop into Cashies (Cash Converters) to buy a cordless angle grinder that he probs stole the previous day and sold to Cashies. Doesn’t make sense, Daise. 

You know you’re on the Sunbury line when…

It’s not the fact that he’s using a soft drink bottle as a pillow. It’s that he’s actually asleep, comfortably, even snoring!

Blues lose and it’s a great start to the new footy weekend.

They create a new record too, the first and also, only team atm, to have lost every gather round match they have played.

Thanks for the heads up Uncle Bitters.

So quite simply the place has run amuck?

Where was that firm hand , where was the 'discipline' 

The sanity of a long suffering Melbourne supporter has always been long understood ;) You cant be long suited in all things ......

Perfect response as it wouldn't be stolen if it wasn't locked up.

I'm sure they will take the bin with them when they take the grinder back to $ converters.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

  • NON-MFC: Round 08

    Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
