On hot dry days like this you realise how totally over rated and over crowded this collection of traffic we call Melbourne is,

Does liveability take in sprawl, wasted time and expensive basic food?

The Corporations have it sewn up.

I know I'm venting but what a hole.

Think you need to move to Romsey manor Biff. I hear BBO has a gimp room that needs occupying. The only traffic there is the illegal kind, of which you may already know

Melbourne will be a whole lot better when we have a world class population, say 15,000,000. And the sooner the better!!!  Heck, São Paolo is the most populous city in the Southern Hemisphere. We can easily surpass them if we try a bit harder. We will all be better off if that happens. I have 50 square metres available in my back yard. More than enough room for 4 triple story town houses. Think how much money I can make doing that. Let's build a mass of apartment towers on the land currently occupied by the Botanic Gardens. It's only a miserable collection of old trees!!! Who needs them when there's money to be made building lovely housing close to the city??

I'll shut up now. It's time to take my medication. And write to my friends in Rome and tell them how liveable and fabulous Melbourne is.

Yes .We are so far advanced of those silly old Romans.

They must be terribly jealous of our lifestyle and booming metropolis.

Have you forgotten the Roman sandal and that great current language, Latin.

They've mastered the 4 hour lunch , terrible knitwear tied over the shoulder, gelato ,stinky cheese,salami and tax evasion , as well as taxation, which they began.

Although they have done little very recently, except enjoy their city, I think Rome is the most beautiful city I've seen.

Agree , most over rated city in the world. All marketing and spin. Heading all one way. Down. Have been living away this year and you suddenly realise that Melbourne is becoming unaffordable and unliveable with the city ruled by developers, corrupt politicians and local councils and a dog eat dog mentality amongst the mob. Exciting city, no, dysfunctional, yes. It is becoming a city with no kindness or heart.  It is a city losing its soul. It is a city dictated by real estate, how to make a quick buck, poverty and desperation. Sorry, it has good coffee and food. As If we need more coffee and food. The only redeeming feature is the MFC. And this web site.

Well Biff, even though the Greeks invented s ex, it was the Italians who introduced women to the concept.

Yes there are ghettos of decency where people care and there is a strong sense of community.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
