    four [censored] pages! this will be akin to the wanton destruction of the library at alexandria. at least thanks to modern technology we will have the wayback machine

    DC, the new library is magnificent, sometimes we need to bulldoze the old to make way for the new.

    We have had NBN wifi for ages in sunny outer Mansfield, inner Mansfield suffers with broadband?

    Got called out and missed the detail. But the intro showed a rugged looking individual talking of the difficulties that banana growers had faced and the potential of new strains. All sounded familiar having been an avid reader of this thread.

    Certainly found that size doesn't matter after tasting the most delightful  fruit purchased from a roadside stand on a road trip through NSW.Small and looked A little green but 6 in the bunch for $3.00.

    I am having similar internet issues at work - I have now signed up with TPG for a 10/10Mbps unlimited Gig service for $199/month + GST.

    Hopefully that will speed up our system.

    Do you know if the service contested?

    This thread seems to be a de facto communications ombudsman .

    There is a reason the government chooses to deny certain lunatics access to the internet which is why many of you here receive slower connection.

    Dr  John may care to elaborate.

    8 La Bamba.

    Funny this year I have little interest in the draft.

    This must be how Hawthorn fans have felt for the last decade.

    If the results are similar I am in a good space.

    Surely Biff you don't think so little of your fellow Demonlanders (or at least your fellow habitués of this thread) as to compare them with the TIO? The TIO has just proved in the last few days how much noise it can make about the number of complaints it has received against the nbn. It is somewhat less voluble about the number of complaints it has resolved (presumably the TIO's job, but maybe not).

    You wouldn't find anyone round here just making a noise for the sake of it, I trust.

    (My apologies for the lateness of this response btw. It may go without saying that my internet service was, as usual, intermittent most of yesterday. As to the government's part in that I cannot possibly comment without fear of contravening the court order again.)

     

    Added: Kudos on the comment on the Goodwin thread btw. Hope it goes well.

    • NON-MFC: Round 12

      Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
