Jesters pies. That is all. Perth is an isolated shithole. I fly in at 7 am and leave at 7pm. Enough for me 

I have a bit of a soft spot for Perth given I’ve lived here for roughly 20 years of my life and this type of comment riles me to be fair. 

Half of you muppets probably caravaned here with Mum and Dad when you were full of pimples, barely feathering and spending way too long in the shower to ever take in anything of real interest. 

But hey, you recognise franchised meat pies as key criteria in your assessment of a city’s worth. 

You [censored].

Moonshadow basically looks like this dude.And behaves like him."Bucolic socialist with improvised elements(like Jazz)."

The revolution is coming soon. If it's anything like the Spanish civil war I can't wait to join the fascists.

They caught me on the hop having just left my local vegan cafe where I supped a delightful deconstructed turmeric latte. Photographer said something about cruelty to cameras. 

Fashion revolutions are good Biffen, as long as it's on-trend. I can imagine you in a fascist uniform looking for someone to punish. Bit like that guy filmed in the Richmond beanie on Wellington Pde a couple of weeks back.

What the f*** is this [censored]? That style went out on Tuesday. We (every Melburnian) has already moved on from that dated sh*t.

We've moved on to an eclectic mix of Versace, Dimmey's, bin liners and Stravinsky.  (Although we are still all web developers, and always extraordinary.)

We visit Perth generally once a year to see in laws. A few things I notice are;

Its fantastic when its sunny but one of the most dreary places on Earth when it’s gets a period of bad weather. Beaches and parks are awesome. 

Not  a shoppers paradise. A city of no bargains and boring generic shopping.

They are too dependant on mining. Even the bathwater is rusty.

They love their fish and chips as much as the seagulls do. 

Little Creatures is fake craft beer but great wine.

Northbridge after 10 pm is scary.

One thing Perth has is the best Sunday sessions in Australia.  Must admit nothing better on Perth then heading down to Fremantle or Cottesloe on a Sunny spring afternoon finding a good beer garden and enjoying a couple of middy's in the sun.

In all seriousness, Perth is a pretty cool place. I worked out of the Swanbourne barracks in my army days for 3 years. Wonderful beaches (no surf tho) and good pubs (OBH and cott hotel are must-go's if your in town, beers while watching the sunset on the water is incredible). The city itself is underwhelming compared to Melbourne, although young whipper snappers would enjoy the nightlife in Northbridge. Wouldn't ever consider moving back but did enjoy my time there.

Great place to live and bring up a family not the best place to visit without knowing a local who knows all the haunts. And a shocking sense of having a chip on their shoulders about their sporting teams but otherwise 

Great weather

Great local sporting facilities 

Best beaches in the world and 

As others have said Great Sunday sessions

A friend of mine lived in Perth. His phone number was 7.

Who owns the pub there now?

Is it true there is no bank in Perth? Because every time someone gets some money they leave?

There's no town idiot in Perth. Apparently everyone gets to take turns..

 

I;ll leave now....

 

 

Surely Ethan is the Town Idiot™?

Give me sun and the beach over Apex gangs any day of the week. 

I've always thought a good car-jacking and an exciting home invasion helps keep a city interesting.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
