Looking for ride/passenger to Canberra will share costs

It'll certainly be a step or two up on what you're accustomed to BBO.

The Estate in Romsey is comfortably pretentious while remaining tasteful. Sufficient to let the poor folk gawk in awe.

So I assume then that the Fyshwick townhouse is likely to be opulent but, given Biffen's lack of taste, crass?

Correct plus certain other "gear" to ensure exciting night after activities in Cantberra.

BTW Biffen has organised accommodation for me in a place called Fyshwick . He assures me it is a very salubrious area.

couldn't you put special in the horse llama camel alpaca trailer?

" gear" ...............if i was you I would travel alone "Special" no disrespect to BBO!

No offence taken Ernest but surely you would understand that I am like any honest tradesman. A plumber carries his wenches wrenches, an electrician his screwdrivers. A decent flagellator carries his/her ... well you get my drift.

No offence to "Special" but the Lads are very touchy about their trailer.

I want video of this roadtrip on YouTube for all Demonlanders to enjoy want went down.

Sorry Em but all videos are strictly for personal use. I'd have to give you a whipping if you got your sordid little mitts on one.

If you carry a short length of hose and a large Jerry can with you,free petrol is only a quick suck away.

Alternatively, if you found a way to harness the methane expulsion in the Carolla over 6 hours with Bitters you could travel to mars.

I'm afraid it would be a choice of either the Eagles or the Eagles sonically so you might consider taking some razor blades.

I only just glimpsed the end of that first sentence Biff and thought one of your girls was to be in BBOs car!

Interesting road trip.

Im picturing a cross between "Priscilla", and "The Sure Thing"

I'm picturing Thelma and Louise- but as overweight men,shoved into a Carolla,exploring their freedom on the road.

Probably not as good as the original movie .

They could do the lemming thing if we lost badly.

Also ,I think the ACT is a hub for porn purveyors and collectors so Bitters will make the most of the trip I'm sure.

Please Biffen, don't tell me you mislead me about Fyshwick. You obviously overcharged me!!

I have an old corolla which will make it ok...looking for someone to come with me to share petrol and accommodation. Desperately poor so can only do this with help.

The plan is to drive to Holbrook ...... leave about lunchtime Friday and stay overnight on Friday. Then 3 hours to Canberra Sat morning. Drive back to Holbrook accommodation Sat night.......back to Melb Sunday morning arrive sun arvo.

Petrol about $150 total and accommodation around $90-100 for a two single beds times two nights. So the travel/accom could be done for About $175 each.

Prefer stunningly attractive young blond female companion, however will accept old ugly [censored] like myself....or any other Demon mad human being. I've got an old corolla but it'll make it. Would be happy to go in your late model Ferrari or similar.

Any other hair brained scheme to get there considered.

If you still haven't found a passenger to share the load with you The Demon Army's facebook page will help you out

I think we should demand a full report on this thread afterwards, which could form the first chapter of a new book called "Demon road trips" ... :)

There's a road trip to a Demons Swans match at the SCG in 1983 (or 82), arranged by the club (or possibly the cheer squad) that i COULD elaborate on for that book

classic. nice to have a laugh this morning. has anyone actually seen BBO? i have always been intrigued by his photo and posts. almost worth taking the risk and giving him a lift to find out after making sure he is in the backseat with seat belt firmly on to ensure he or she cannot get aroused on the journey.

someone told me this was a shot from better days

If Jack Kerouac had read this thread before he got big his first novel may well have been "I'd prefer to stay home".

    2024 Player Reviews: #35 Harry Petty

    Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.

    The clever small was unable to cement a place in the Melbourne midfield and spent most of his time this year with the Casey Demons where he finished equal fourth in its best & fairest.

    Bowey’s season was curtailed early when he sustained a shoulder injury that required surgery in the opening game against Sydney. As a consequence, he was never able to perform consistently or at anywhere near his previous levels.  Date of Birth: 12 September 2002 Height: 175cm Games MFC 2024: 14 Career Total: 61 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total: 6

    SLIP SLIDING AWAY by Meggs

    It was a sweaty, slippery night at Cazalys Stadium, a tough slog with low scoring and missed opportunities.  The Hokball Hawks hung on to win by a goal and sit second on the ladder, relegating the disappointed Demons to, almost certainly, finals spectators.   We had to win this match. When news broke of late withdrawals of talisman Kate Hore and key back Gaby Colvin, expectations plummeted, and Demon fans despaired.  The bad news was the signature song of 2024, a season that’s
