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.

    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.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
