Dare I confess to a childlike pang of disappointment upon reading "no members are celebrating a birthday today" . My profile clearly includes my "Richie" birth date of twenty-tew/tew .

    we thought you were like the queen, earl, and celebrate your birthday on a public holiday at a different date

    we thought you had negotiated this with daniel

    we await his pronouncement - what is another holiday after all - it will be good for tourist trade and a much deserved rest for the exploited common worker

    DC Funny you should mention the Queen. I share my birthdate with Her Majesty's actual birthday, 21 April. Different year of birth of course.

    God Bless Her!

    Hey hold on DC Flavia was a lover of Domitian who spent his time persecuting Christians, where did the Popes come into it? If there were any in those early days of the Church.

    no no earl, didn't you see the comma. i share a birthday with 2 popes, nothing to do with flavia

    and....if domitian had done a half decent job on the christians, dee-luded wouldn't have his current obsession with pell and abbott to worry about, and i would've been spared the indignity of sharing my birthday with 2 popes.

    Oh yes I now understand. I have always lamented the fall of the Western Roman Empire myself. Cruel yes but always fair, they didn't play favourites. If only they had managed to deal with Christianity at its birth we would still be able to pay homage to hundreds of gods for every cause without having to change our moral behaviour. My favourite when I was travelling through modern Turkey was an ancient Roman site near Pamukale where Roman pilgrims travelled to have sex orgies in celebration of the goddess of love. I mean I could have been very religious back then. But then the bloody Christian fun crampers showed up!!

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
