    Just occurred to me Chippy I recently changed my service provider.

    There was a short period before I got all my contacts sorted with the new email etc.

    Might have fallen into that period.

    Could not go anyway I had a previous engagement.

    Enjoy the night .

    Take a deep breath Bitty, have another shiraz and plan your diary to be clear for the next PR dinner date.

    I wish. Just re-read the rest of the thread and saw that it was tomorrow night. Sorry.

    Well went along and had a thoroughly good time. How was the steak Chippy ? Parma was excellent :)

    A cosy little setting. Only about 100-125 I reckon. For the likes of Deeluded whos 'keen' for a social place the intent apparently is to make the Duke a sort of unofficial locale for drinkies before after, whenever.

    Was the Roos, Robbo and Bernie show. There was no ground breaking or earth shattering news or goss really. Id really like Bernie to think hes got not 2-3 years but maybe 4-5 left at the dees. Hes got his head on ok that lad.

    I really get the feeling that Roos is enjoying his time at the club and feels very much part of it now, not some interloper.

    thats about it

    OD. BB was just winding you up.

    Steak was great. Wine was good company was great.

    Isn't it fantastic when you are with a group with a common interest.

    Time flew by.

    Antipasto entree was good BB and I almost devoured a plate between us

    Choice of 3 mains Salmon, Steak and Parma.

    Followed by a small pudding.

    Basic fare but ample.

    I had a dig at Bernie that his eyes were wandering too much on to the Blonde waitresses.

    No idea, the waitresses served the wine, their hands were over the label.

    Probably by accident more than good management.

    It certainly was drinkable. If iI had a problem with the wine I would have asked to make sure I wouldn't drink that one again.

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.
