Hilarious.Ā 


Bear is extremely food oriented, to the point where he will attend the opening of a packet of chips from the other side of the house, and has learnt how to spell dinner because we’ve started spelling it instead of saying it to avoid him going crazy.
If you’re eating anything and won’t share he will tap you on the arm repeatedly until you give him some. If I say ā€œyou can’t have thisā€ (like if I’m having chocolate), he dramatically flop down and sighs like he’s worked a 40 hour week and has two mortgages and 3 ex wives.

The first trick he learnt was to shake for a treat. To this day, if I say the word treat he will sit at my feet and raise his paw to shake without even being asked… and this is why my dog is chonky.Ā 

He taps you on the arm repeatedly until you give him some?! That’s painfully cute! How could you ever say no to that little face?! 🄺

As I said, it’s why he’s chunky. You can’t say no. My dad can’t ever say no to him. The minute my dad is around and there’s food, Bear goes and puts his head on my dad because he knows old man can’t resist him!Ā 

On Mother’s Day Bear had bacon, salami, egg salad, bagels, smoked salmon and croissant… and then nearly killed us with farts šŸ˜‚

What was your favorite round @Monbon?

I was a postie in Hawthorn in 1980. I quit after a German Shepherd, bounding along 100 metres ahead of itsĀ  owner chased me round my bike. I kept yelling F.Off - it had worked with a German Shepherd once before, German, you know, they just follow orders - and when the owner casually sauntered up to us. He said. Don't yell at the dog - you'll frighten it.Ā

Meet Teddy.

Loves watching footy on TV (that is the 2021 GF he is watching).

Very good corralling defence work. Can be selfish with the ball, doesn't share it around.

Apologies if there is already a thread for this somewhere at the far end of the Search function's reach. You'll definitely be a contributor to this one, @WalkingCivilWarĀ (how are the girls going?)

Son and partner have just bought a puppy. I haven't sought permission to share greater detail, but I can say they've named her 'Edie' after Eden Zanker ('our girl', WCW!) I reckon there are other - likely many - 'Landers out there who've blessed their pets with Dees names. And more to come.

Here's your chance for warm and fuzzy sharing, pics particularly welcomed, including welcoming new ones as they inevitably arrive.

Does he ever wear his hair in a ponytail? I feel like he could pull off the Brody Grundy.Ā

I think it's a single top knot in those photos, but occasionally the pigtails come into play!

Every match I’m OTT with plaits and ponytails and ribbons of all lengths and sizes. (I’ve had little girls come down the front to see me and they’ve gone back to their parents with a new ā€˜do, complete with red n blue ribbons. 😁) Give me 10 minutes with Teddy and I guarantee it’ll be cuteness overload!

That'd be one of Bach's?

Yawohl: then there's Brahms Haydn Variations, not to mention the diabolical Diabelli...And I might have included Elgar's Enigma Variations had he not written Land of Hope and Glory, and Gerontius - both works which are anathema to my sensitive soul. Uncle Bitters of the Romsely Manor would describe the latter works as egregious.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.Ā  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.Ā  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.Ā  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.Ā

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
