It would be a bit of a marketing fail to open a brothel in the area wouldn't it.  ...or conversely is that how the area got it's name originally. 

Along similar lines, there is the locally based business 'Cockburn Cement' - an early version of viagra for when you've had a big night on the nest, but just need to keep powering on! ...perhaps?

Conversely, The Daily Planet (an award winning brothel in Elsternwick Victoria) is located in Horne St.

I know of the daily plannet, but not as far as knowing what street it is on!

A mate of mine did use to live in a street in the Croydon area which is "The Nook" - there is a brothel on that street too.

I was looking after a mates car while he was in Europe for 6 months and after about 8 weeks it broke down right outside The Planet. I just left it there till my friend came back. It was a very recognizable car and when he returned from OS  a lot of people who didn't know he had  gone, questioned him about how much time he was spending at the Planet. He wasn't very happy.

Do they still have a bar over in Perth called The Bog?

I believe so. 

Used to frequent there back in the late 90’s. Got kicked out of the aptly named place just as much too.

Gee, to my amazement I have found very many unsavoury type characters on Demonland. This is the kind of  site my mum told me not to visit.

My mum never understood that it's not a binary world, DC, hence her advice. Anyway, it's the duty of everyone to forge their own way in the world, in other words, not to listen to their mothers. I met a bloke on Friday, for example, who said his deal old mum told him to never trust a Chinaman. Just for example...

Early 20’s and cashed up doing FIFO. Probably 80% of their clientele.

It certainly is a binary world:  Demon supporters, and 'others'!

I have no idea what your first paragraph is about but entirely agree with the second.

Not sure her advice was too far off the mark.

The Bog is long gone McQueen would be closed around 15 years. The redevelopment of Northbridge with apartments and new late night bars killed it off. Just sits there on Newcastle St vacant now.

On the subject of Jesse Watch, from the bigfooty Freo pre-season training thread...

On the sidelines, boom recruit Hogan continued individual skills, running and repeat-effort work in his comeback from a navicular stress fracture.

 "Jesse's going good. He's started being drip-fed into drills in the last couple of days and he will look to be in full training in the coming weeks," Fyfe said.

(Later reports have him on track for round 1.)

The freehold land on which the Daily Planet is located was sold last year. I have a feeling that the award winning brothel is soon going to go the way of the Gatwick.

No. I am actually serious. There was a huge Roman Bath in there that lasted until around the mid 90’s. 

I went there a few times after a night shift. 

It was brilliant!!

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
