Chicken salt is a salt and herb blend made to marinade chickens, invented in the 80s!  The original didn't have chicken in it but later variations have chicken stock.  Source (sauce 😛):  my friend two weeks ago when we were all drinking and had the same question!

    Gorgeous weather this weekend means ticking off some of the outdoor chores that have been waiting to get done. Managed to wash down all the white weatherboards and sash windows, mow the lawn and plant some stipa arundinacea perennial grass in the garden which should look great by next autumn. Time to get some rays now before the working week begins. Definitely a fan of the pre finals bye.

    Because only half the people at the MCG are peasants. 

    Funny if not true.

    Poor indictment of the world and the greed of us.

    The oligarchs make the rules to suit, then belittle the victims of their rules.

    Also, Thursday can’t come quickly enough, clearly. 😑

    Are we there yet?

    I've actually got an excitement around this year's finals series that I didn't have so much last season. 

    On a related note, mentally my plans for the week all work up to and end at Thursday night!

    I’ve got strong 2021 vibes.

    Good luck with your mental plans! We both know they’ll fall by the wayside starting right about now. 😁 (if they haven’t already)

    I was looking forward to this weekend because with no football, I had planned to sink many hours into Starfield... until I discovered it was in "early access" and you have to pay $50 just to "unlock" it. I'll wait until next week to play it with Game Pass.

    I know that means nothing to most people here but just know there are far bigger scams in this world then the cost of AFL Finals tickets.

    What a joke.

    As an aside if I was gaming a little more these days Gamepass would be all I need. Might give it a go soon, maybe after Inktober 😀

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
