Just saying that if it is not his primary residence whether it be fridge or HWS what is the urgency as he could not travel there to use it.

I see him down at Lorne regularly so assumed his primary residence would be down there with a city residence while working and commentating. I can’t get to my place on the Surf Coast but he can get to a place in Gippsland! Anyway interesting if any questions are asked.

    What a sad [censored] world we now live in. Bloke gets injured in an explosion and the main concern is if it was his primary residence.

    Does it matter where he was or the reasons for him being there? The bloke is in hospital after being involved in a gas explosion. 

    tongue in cheek Ethan

    My point exactly. It is a sad world. I did offer my sympathy which is something I don't usually offer to rule breakers. I didn't  mention that given virtually no mobile phone coverage where he was I wonder who called the Medics and CFA. 

    I bet Brian will be OK to see the GF live and in person.

    Yeah I'm pretty sure he is out the back there somewhere. I think you can see it from Teddy's.

    There was another article that said a mum used a cheap packet of K-mart clothesline’s pegs to seal cereal packets.

    I usually don’t convict until I am in possession of evidence.

    Not wishing him any harm but couldn't they keep him in hospital under observation for the next month.

    Severe sedation is essential as well as isolation.

    PD you must be a races follower as you have blinkers on. Oh..thats right, your not allowed to do that either.

    Join the dots. Walhalla have had electricity for just over 22 years. A gas fridge blew up not AC ..shack is probably not powered. Taylor doesn't live there.

    My fridge exploded just a couple days ago. I couldn't put out the flames pouring from the freezer (I live in a wooden Queenslander as well) and was expecting an even bigger explosion any second, and ended up having one of those hysterical strength episodes - picked the whole thing up with flames licking around my head, ran to the backdoor through thick clouds of black smoke, and threw it down the steps as far as I could into the patio before diving for cover (the impact actually snuffed out the fire). Crazy intense. A few singed hairs and my shoulder muscles are stuffed, but both me and the house were incredibly lucky. Anyway, Brian Taylor, lol.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
