    Is this one of those places that roll their eyes when you say you have a 40” waist?

    Great song. Really strange cultural appropriation by Brisbane to play this at their games... Battle song for the WVU mountaineers and true americana so  let them have it,  got nothing to do with kangaroo pt and woolloongabba

    That right there is why my "book two seats on an aeroplane" gut needs a bespoke tailor.

    I just assumed that all Demonlanders used a bespoke tailor - as I do!

    What, you can’t buy 5XL red and blue kaftans off the rack? 
    Surely your matching red and blue crocs aren’t custom made?

    I hope you don't consider this patronising  WCW but we of The Manor born , as it were, do not buy off the rack, even if it is possible.

    Was hoping for Wu-Tang brand personally. 

    I heard they are going to sponsor the under 18’s - because Wu-Tang is for the children.

    Chill, mon.  Maybe they'll play Toots and the Maytals version.

    Who cares if this further fuels the stereotype? Double down on it I say. Time to load me up on some sweet, sweet knits.

    It's obviously a favourite of Charlie Cameron's in case you have missed the song in celebration after a Charlie goal.

    Is Henry Bucks still going? (I assume the MCC would have that tied up)

    I buy around 81% of my clothes from CR so pretty happy with this.

    I know, and that's before they take the discount off.

    Well I have to admit I don’t own  one item of CR. 
    70% of my clothing I buy at DFO. Usually get brand names at a larger discounts than 20%.
    For perhaps some strange unknown reason I have always thought of CR as woman’s clothing.

    Don't even know if they have shops at DFO.

    l will have to look on my next visit I might have missed some good clobber!

    Definitely not. A massively strong brand owned by a South African company now that also owns Witchery, Mimco and a few other brands. 
     

    This is a great partnership for all the MCC high brow fans of Melbourne and also for those of us who enjoy 20% off… If you don’t own their towels you’re missing out 😂

    Manchester - if that's the right word - is not my thing. I was vaguely conscious of new towels appearing in our house several months ago and that they were of particularly high quality. After reading your post, I noticed for the first time they are from Country Road. Naturally, I have now complimented my wife on her exquisite taste in towels and informed of the 20% discount on future such purchases. Thx for your post!

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
