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 .

Posted

It's my birthday on Tuesday. (In the unlikely event that anyone is interested.)

I'm certainly interested to see if you if you get a Demonland cheerio......oh hang on.....you're a "birthday unknown" .

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!!

When do we get the chance to do that? Where do I join the queue?

Bishop Brennan all over again ... but twice the fun.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. 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
