it was probably a grammar mistake (spl) or toned down a tad :o

Shouldn't it be spelt d-d-d-d-dick? :blink::)

Can someone explain the article in today's Age that rated the liveability of all Melbourne's suburbs? If you can please explain to me how Borewood comes in at 80 out of 321 and ahead of Fitzroy at 82? Good heavens I mean the two suburbs are like chalk and cheese. And then the suburb of my birth Box Hill South comes in at 83! So with all I have achieved in my life I have moved one rung up the liveability scale or 0.003% improvement in 30 years! Don't say a word of this to DC.

Yes, clearly the first thing up against the wall when the revolution comes is a few uppity suburbs whose reputation has long exceeded their true worth. Throw in a few footy clubs in some of those suburbs (Collingwood, Carlton, Essendon) and now you are talking ... :):lol:

Borewood cannot be ranked above Old Fitzroy unless there are bonus points for sterility and lifelessness.

I wonder how Tittybong ranks with Stuttering Dicks Creek

Or if Shiitterton in the UK is Better then the town of Hole?

A ridiculous article that lacks any credibility whatsoever. I glanced at it expecting to see Romsey firmly entrenched at number1 but to my and the lads chagrin, Romsey was not mentioned. The lads were so outraged they damaged their computer and have cancelled their subscription to that vile newspaper.

i drove through fitzroy yesterday on the way to north carlton

i wish i hadn't

You should have continued dc, and meandered in a roughly NW direction, until you reached sunny shores of Romsey. The inadequacies of Borewood would have been immediately apparent.

The South of France was not rated anywhere near North Carlton but I imagine it has some other benefits.

I trust his pension will be spent on wine,great food and immoral women.

and the rest squandered.

That is such a sensible comment it doesn't even need to be accompanied by a phalanx of emojis.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
