Yes but only real men drink Irish whiskey....Jamesons is a bit too rough for some gentler souls

I have always thought the reverse Saty.

The better quality Irish single malts I find are a bit tasteless.

Prefer a good Scottish Highland single malt myself.

I will have a word on Neeld.

He came from the Malthouse camp and whether we like Malthouse or not we can't deny that he can coach - runs are on the board. I don't think the problem with Neeld is that he didn't have a game plan or an idea of how he wanted the team to play. His problem was he couldn't deliver/sell the message or get buy in.

Its interesting, after the initial Neeld euphoria on his appointment, I did wonder how the players could "believe" because from early on I was struggling. With Roos, he just keeps the message simple and seems to have the equal measures of tough,approachable, disciplinarian, but likable and friendly and it is not difficult to get swept up by him.

Not sure I would go that far but I do prefer Highland brews.

Actually I'm not so keen on lighter fluid - but liquid peat doesn't do it for me, either. With you in the Highlands.

Is it ok to enjoy a double shot Canadian Club Whiskey with one block of ice?

Makers Mark and Jamiesons have been old friends. As has J Walker Blue and Wild Turk OP.

In moderation of course. But i must say since Abbott and Co have arrived and are dismantling the fabric of my country the consumption of top shelf liquor has increased....:)

Surprised that you guys are talking about whiskey when Roos has just presented his (Part 2) pre-season update. Surely there must be some comment?

Today I have run out of enthusiasm for football in 2103 CBDees.

This is a little lighter and less abuse if you say the wrong thing!

The only other guy I ever heard of drinking that was the former boss of "News of the World".

Rupert would be disgusted that WYL can afford the same drink as his boy .

Tweet him immediately with the "News".

I can picture the phone call from Rupert to the ABC

RM"Tell everyone they are sacked immediately for wasting money"

ABC employee"Mr Murdoch ,are you aware that you don't actually own the ABC?"

RM"Why not-who says"

ABC"It's a publicly owned broadcaster"

RM"Bloody socialists"

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
