this could be big. a wise elder, a minister of the cloth and a long dead novelist.

Well, come on, tell us the rest of the joke ... the one that starts "A wise else, a minister and a novelist walk into a bar and order a single malt each." :blink:

 
 

You would have to take Beelzebub just for the interest the juxtaposition with the man of cloth would provide.

I'm sure it's nothing more than a small philosophical difference. A chat over a couple of Lagavulins and there will be peace in the world. Perhaps Beelzebub would prefer something even smokier, maybe a Laphroigh.

As this thread is about crooks I thought I would put this one here.

A joke i like about Mr. Blatter

“The FIFA president, Sepp Blatter, the director of communications and the general secretary are all sitting in a car — who is driving?

“The police.”

And once they get him down to the station and threaten him with jail time, they will suddenly find that they have a "leaking Blatter" on their hands.

I stand corrected. The thing is I sometimes have trouble standing unaided when indulging in the nectar.

I feel confident it just a few loose floor boards Reverend.

What does She predict this week?

I think we may need to put up a new title for this thread.

I am thinking 'The Saga Continues - which single malt will it be'.

All this could be followed by 'the Saga Continues - Who has the sorest head?'

She who must be obeyed says 'Dees by plenty!'

I'm a little less optimistic. I see us scraping in by 8 or 9 points.

Will Abbott regret saying he will do "whatever it takes" in his fight gains tax terrorism?

Surely this is the drop that we all drink after the MFC next Grand Final win?

I say, invest in current favourites at reasonable prices. They will be old, rare and expensive by then.

Dunno who I hate more - Bombers coterie members, drug cheats or property developers.

Oh hang on - they're more or less synonymous.

There is a large apartment development by that said developer near my place. There are dozens of owners suing the company. Apparently concrete cancer and shoddy work everywhere and the buildings are only a couple of years old.

Hope not....I away in September.

I think you will not miss anything this or even next September. Enjoy your trip.

 

afl tribunal (selectively) leaking...........who'd've thunk that?

i also understand some in the media have said they have access to the full detailed findings report of the tribunal on the 34 ess players

when in-house doesn't really mean in-house!

An extract:-

AFL counsel Renee Enbom reportedly told the tribunal that "Mr Dank sent a text to Mr Alavi asking if AOD and Thymosin can be mixed, and Mr Alavi responded, 'I can test it out.'"

Jones asked if that was "the one about horses" and Enbom confirmed that it was.

She reported the following text exchange between Alavi and Dank:

"Also is there a problem with giving them an anaesthetic in the muscle? I have discovered a new polymer which will provide slow release system while repairing damaged cell walls. Intra muscular injection."

Mr Dank responded: "No problems with that all."

Mr Alavi later wrote: "It's amazing and being used in the US for elite horseracing. I can even put the Thymosin and AOD in it."

Mr Dank: "Perfect. Let's get going."

He then sends another text message: "Have we tried it on anyone yet?"

Mr Alavi responds: "A few dental injections for periodontal sockets but not for sporting."

Mr Alavi later says: "Amazing repair properties."

Mr Dank responds: "Well, let's test a couple of players."

Mr Alavi says: "Sounds good, buddy. Speak soon."

Counsel for AFL and ASADA were pushing for a lifetime ban for Dank, with Enbom saying Dank has "complete disregard for the health and wellbeing of others".

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
