bbo, if i might suggest that if the squeeze was most unimpressed that next time you do a grand yarra valley wine grazing extravaganza that you take stuie along instead

that way you might be able resolve your apparent (and very public) mutual cyber stalking of each other over a glass or two

you could either glass each other or partake in some real stalking (so to speak)

High Noon in the Yarra Valley? Would have to have alpacas as seconds ... :)

Stuie would want to use those sneaky little Vicunas .

I think Stuie would ask for the non alcoholic grape juice.

Sorry boss. How's the detox going? Skin clearing up? Figure back?


Back at the Manor. It seems poor old Bitters remains unforgiven for his Yarra Valley excesses. The squeeze decided to cook curried chicken sausages. Seemed a bit strange but a message was being delivered.

Your correspondent had to sit in the Manor's Michelin level kitchen and watch this being prepared.

The symbolism was quite unsubtle.

The sausages were boiled.

The sausages were skinned with surgical precision.

The sausages were chopped ....

It's odd you know. The squeeze is more pizzed about the Yarra Valley fiasco than when I left her friends in Canberra after the Manuka Oval disaster.

Maybe the fact that I passed out during the luxury accom part of the deal had something to do with it.

As I said - I don't understand sheilas.

Yarra Valley weekend away, missus on the prowl, good food, good wine, romantic atmosphere..... and you get pizzed and pass out.

No wonder she's dissapointed. Surprised she's only butchering the curried sausages.

He's certainly in dangerous territory Earl. Hope the knife wasn't particulary sharp and he's up to date with his tetanus immunisations.

I'll bet the effer couldn't do it with an Alpaca under each arm.

In fact think of the impact on Aussie History if Alpacas had turned up here

"Down came an Alpaca to drink at the billabong

up jumped ......."

That is a better claim to fame than I can come up with.

You do understand you've already featured in a Rod Stewart massive hit? Red(Hot)legs

Your poor old Uncle Bitter has just come in from completing some shovel work at the Manor. It's about 6c here atm. Let's just say if I was a brass monkey , I'd be looking for a soldering iron.

I'll bet KC is glad he's not at Casey today.

  • 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.

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.

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.
