Appeasement by giving the great unwashed and minority a bloody minded voice.... Largely, AND many views people have are IN NODDY land. I'm not talking disadvantaged and down and outers, I'm talikng NUFFIES who will stop Melbourne dead in the street with Bulltish idealogical rubbisH., I hope I have educated you further into the intrIcasies of political scaremongering and  rabid, rubbish politics for no good reason other than.... I have an axe.. any axe to grind!

"the great unwashed"?? I am giving you the benefit of the doubt that this does not mean what I think it means.

I’m woke as. I take every opportunity to resist the plague of cultural appropriation. I believe racial boundaries must be strictly policed. Unlike gender, which is totally fluid.

So do we refer to you as Mr. or Mrs. trade breaker this off season?

 

I saw that KFC vegan “activist” down at Bourke Street Mall (David Jones) 2 or so years ago on a Saturday with 3 of her other minions, so I decided to seize the opportunity to take a 3 minute walk to Stalactites to buy a Lamb gyros and went back to devour it in front of the KFC vegan woman. 
 

They wanted to throw hands but I kept eating. The more angry they got, the tastier was my gyros. 🤣

These people are garbage and if PETA ever did come to Melbourne for an event or something, I would for sure go to a Chinese restaurant buy a whole tray of roasted pork, hijack their presentation and start chowing down in front of them.

My mum’s not woke at all. Like, I was breastfed for the first six months of my life. Did my mother not realise that I was a vegan? Did she even care? Either way, it was abuse.

A friend of mine sought revenge by getting "I hate Mum" tattooed on hie forehead.

When asked why he responded

"Tatt for titt"

“In the 1938 Blue Book of Bulldogs, William Lawlor wrote that the Bulldog can be traced to 1210, the year of the first official bullbaiting in England. He added that the Bulldog “is generally believed to have come down from the same common stock” developed for that sport. That meant these dogs had to be tough enough to face down a mighty bovine.”

No argument from me regarding selfish, obsessive breeding traits to the detriment to the health of a dog either SD. As stated in my original post this is particularly prevalent with French Bulldogs and Pugs of which many suffer from Brachycephalic Airway Obstruction Syndrome which is horrible.

The sole reason for the development of the Australian Bulldog breed was to help alleviate the health issues of British Bulldogs particularly for warmer climates. The Aussie Bulldog is a taller, leaner dog with a longer ‘snout’ while still maintaining the “look” and beautiful temperament of the Bulldog. This can only be a good thing for the development of the breed, especially in this country.

Like you I’m a dog lover and in particular Bulldog lover, so long may the breed continue, if bred responsibly.

 

Sometimes I'm reminded that there are many things, small things, which in Australian culture are just that little bit genuinely 'better'. A lot of it stems from the cultural root of 'Yeah, don't need that nonsense, thanks'.

On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos.

Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.

  • PREVIEW: Sydney

    The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
