Turns out Langers and Fritta were boys so because bylaws are applicable we had to give them back to the breeder. Not as sad as expected since Langers had begun to attack me (from behind… gutless wonder 😁). Harmesy and Melksy are girls so we’re allowed to keep them. 🥳 

So we got three more babies, different breed but also chosen because of their quieter cockcrow. So far, so good. We’re 99% sure they’re girls. 🤞🏼

I give you…

Goldie, Edo and Gabi, my AFLW trio. 💕

aaaaanndd… Edo’s a boy. 😢

I can’t believe the very first morning after posting this I wake up to crowing. Sadly Edo will have to be delisted. Goldie and Gabi are being “managed” for 2-4 weeks. If they’re boys as well, all three will have to be traded. 😢

My fault, then, WCW? Sorry!

👍😆, ❤️ and 👏 to all posters from hereon 😊

I thought once'd be enough but I feel I need to repeat periodically!

Keep the fun, joy and Dee-ness going folks! And looking forward to more Dees names (wondering if yours are 'Jeff' and, with some licence, 'Sean', @Bitter but optimistic?)

My dogs have no interest in sport - in fact they hate it!

When I watch ( particularly AFL ) they retire to The Manor's garden.

My yelling and cursing totally unnerves them.

Hi Bear from Bear....

 

Did you know that Clarry recently said on radio that he's looking to get a Cavoodle?

We are all obviously elite dog people 🤣

Nah, that’s just nature. We usually don’t name them until we know for sure they’re hens. It’s a little easier to say goodbye to them when they’re nameless. Went a little early on this occasion. 😢 All good though, we have depth… our breeder has a healthy reserves list. 😁

You clearly don’t know how difficult sexing chickens is. You have to look at their cloaca as soon as they hatch ie, before they take their first poo. The cloaca has a tiny pimple if it’s a boy but this disappears after the first poo. If you miss that you have to feather-sex them when they’re a couple of months old and this isn’t always accurate.

Tune in next week for how to manage fertilised eggs until your hen is clucky enough to nest. 😁

I am going to spend a lot of time trying to un-visualise those mental images

Two bear cubs!

You're probably a bit young to recall these two but our bears kinda fit the bill.  I can see them enjoying a picnic as long as there's plenty of honey snacks!

No i didn't know that Jaded.  How uncanny is that.  Our pup's haircuts can also get pretty scruffy and out of hand at times.  A good match up for Clarry's very stylish do!

None whatsoever BBO. All of our dogs have been Melbourne members and this one will not be any different. Im not having a Daicos or Cox running around my house!


I thought this thread might be a tribute to 'The Dollop', but am even happier with what it is!  Thanks!

Gotta say it: @WalkingCivilWar's current problem!

Due to the simple fact that as soon as my wife and I share a bed, it becomes a snoring contest. I have declared her the World Champion, and I have moved to a bed where we cannot hear each other snore. It's a move which many couples have discovered, saves marriages.

Our pooch, Leila, a 4and a half year old girl, sleeps on her beds in what I call the Western Front, I.E at the western end of the passageway where our daughter resides. I call our Leila Bete Banc, our daughter is Betty Noir.

And right on cue - I must be psycho, as one of my old girlfriends used to put it - the Mayor Of Romsey Mansion adds a like!!!!!!! I am pleased, very....

This is Vernon. He is a rescue dog so we inherited his name.

My wife and I have had dogs all our married life. Out first was Lovie named after Brett Lovett.

Vernon is 17 and is partially deaf and blind. He knows the time however. He never misses dinner time and walk time.

He gets walked up and down Collins street every night. His favorite nights are Thursday and Friday when the office girls come out of the pubs. He loves the attention.

A beautiful dog.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • 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?
