    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.

    The old jewel in the Crown eh..

    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.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
