Each to his own Polly. I have been known to have the odd Cognac. So far my experience is all good quality booze is nice in its own way. The only thing I cannot swallow is Sherry no matter the quality even the smell turns my stomach. Enjoy. 

Agree - a good Reposado Tequila is a fine thing.

How about the real Spanish sherry OD? I like that stuff.

    Have never tried it, I figure there are plenty of other options outside of Sherry.

    I'm a complete novice, I've only had it at good Tapas bars recommended with the food, but it's pretty good stuff.

    Same for me with Japanese and sake.

    I think it goes along with your earlier statement that if you get the right stuff it's usually good.

    Jon Ralph says, "the player, who we don't need to name..." When did the Herald-Sun find this new moral compass?

    Dreaming. Ralph doesn't know and couldn't be bothered finding out.

    Probably a request from the club. Conor McKenna wasn't treated very well last year.

    Connor McKenna actually broke rules though.

    I love a good Cognac. Currently have an excellent Hennesy XO wich is marvellous and smooth. Let's hope a celebratory snifter tonight is appropriate.

    Why does it matter who the player in question was? He did nothing wrong, and like 14,000 other people in Victoria right now has found himself at the wrong place at the wrong time. 

    You want a full list of names and occupations of everyone who was at a tier 1 exposure site? 

    He must be annoyed enough that he nearly got an AFL game called off and that he now can't train or do his rehab at the club for 14 days, pushing his case for recovery back. He has suffered more than enough.

    Also don't know if it's just me but other clubs especially the Dogs had no reason at all to be mad at us. A guy has had no idea he was at an exposure site and now boneheads were mentioning forefiting if we couldn't field a team? 

    A person who I work with was at an exposure site WHILE going to get the jab. They ended up negative but should they have been punished if it wasn't? Sounds like this kind of logic was being used on SEN.

    The AFL would have never made us forfeit the game even if said player was at the nightclub at 4am. The actions of an individual, no matter how poor, cannot be held up against an entire club. Just like when the Tigers players breached quarantine hub rules last year, the club was fined and they were sent home, but nobody lost premiership points. See also Harley Bennell. 

    The player in question did nothing wrong. They were at a cafe before clubs were told to isolate all their players. We cannot punish players for having a life. They are not robots. They go into the community like everyone else, and it is not against any rules. 

    Bitter Bulldogs fans and flogs on SEN are not the people to ask about this.

    Well if Dwayne Russell really did agree with this peanut suggesting we should forefit then I hope he makes/Has made an apology for getting it wrong and spreading mis-information.

    A few samplings from their equivalent page:

    "I can highly recommend the Five Dragons. Yez can play all rows of the reels on every roll an' change the credit rate any time yez like."

    "The Lightning Cash machine at the Auburn RSL pays out jackpots more than any other machine in the joint. I should know coz I've been on the machine next to it every bloody time!"

    "If yez play Emerald Fortunes at Crown, the payout percentages are higher than any other joint in Melbourne. But don't tell no-one or they'll prob'ly fix it."

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
