    Nespresso Coffee Machines

    Got a Citiz as a wedding/birthday gift. Convenient & low maintenance, if not a little expensive for coffee you have at home. But hey, it's better than instant!

    Mitch Hahn Delisted

    Wow! Congrats to him on a solid career and the helicopter punt will be missed. Will Veszpremi (sp?) or angry ant Hooper pick up the slack of the bullocking big body who'll run through packs and (hopefully) kick 2 a game?

    Johnno's Book

    To be honest he's just not an interesting guy. Nothing complex about old Brad, just a very good footballer and a solid citizen who managed to live the dream. This all makes for great fluff reading in the Sunday Herald Sun or even the glossies, but if you're going to spend $20+ on a book you'd...

    LeBrESPN

    f^&king lazy journalism. Four games in, and they're still mentioning James' name in articles concerning the Cavaliers. We know he's not there, we know where he is now...anyone else notice this? Cleveland beat the Celts and a sizeable chunk is devoted to the former #23 in a review of a game he...

    Living in Melbourne

    On the river? got it. Seddon & Yarraville look your best bet if you don't want to shop in Footscray and want walking or biking distance to work, and the 409 or 223 will drop you a few hundred metres from work if I recall right. Trains along that line (Williamstown) run every 20 minutes to...

    Living in Melbourne

    Where in Footscray? Footscray is a real mixed bag, but if accessing transport is an issue Footscray is exceptionally well serviced. Yarraville, West Footscray, Spotswood, Seddon and Newport are all within a short distance to Footscray, and transport is a non-issue. Feel free to ask more...

    Favourite Beer

    Did anyone go the Vic Microbreweries Showcase @ Fed Square last Wednesday/Thursday? Stuff like this shows you don't need to import to acquire good beer, nor do you need to be satisfied with the swill from the bigs (CUB/Kirin-Lion Nathan).

    How do you swim?

    Swimming is ALL technique. I'm in a similar situation to you WBK (but I'm guessing a bit older) in that, in triathlon speak, "it's easy to find my bike in transition" IE I swim like a rock. I've long had the intention of joining adult lessons, but dumb pride, and to a lesser degree time and...

    Accomodation in New York

    It really depends on your budget... Read up on what the forecast for the dollar is and how long it'll stay as strong as it is - they're forecasting early next year to up to $1.10, so try some of the online sites and book early where possible. If you're close to a subway stop it probably...

    Bulldoze the Debt

    Thanks FishCreekBandit - it seemed nuts that nothing was about, a bit of laziness on my behalf more than anything. I was going to ask someone to merge it when I saw it up as the first thread just then, but that was already taken care of quick smart so all's well. Anyway, it's a great concept...

    Bulldoze the Debt

    About ****ing time the club came up with this! For all the club has talked about turning a profit etc etc, it has a monstrous debt hanging over its head from what I'm guessing was the shortfall of the redevelopment of WO. It seems other clubs (recently Melbourne and Geelong just before they...

    FTA-TV Before the Game

    No suits, no real boofheads, no sense of self-importance. No problem. Shits on the thursday night offering on Nein, but it's a bit like saying Coles Corn Chips s**t on cardboard.

    Certified Legendary Thread The Cult of Robbo

    I, feel like, a fraud when continuously, I find myself reading what is, effectively, "second hand smoke". But alas, upon reading the thoughts of the Articulate One, albeit through BigFooty channels, one's life is further enriched. Keep sharing the brilliance, that, to channel my inner Robbo...

    If we are serious about winning the Preliminary Final Johnson HAS to be dropped

    Even as one of his critics, I'd say he was definitely in the better half of the 22 that played last night and aside from the odd brain fart (that silly handball over the head looked bad due to its failure) he was pretty good. If they drop him based on that, the captain-in-waiting, 3 goals and...

    Certified Legendary Thread The Cult of Robbo

    This, for me, as an ex-HS buyer, was the first time I, had read Robbo's "The Tackle", for some time. I must say, you, the Cult of Robbo boys, have nailed the Goateed one, commas and all, exceptionally well. I, when reading said column, felt as if commas were jumping out, right from the page...

    So the 5 Champions of my youth have now retired

    Grant, Johnson, West, Darcy, Smith. Old #3 (ex #29) is probably a fair way in front, with another big gap between #6 & #7.

    Certified Legendary Thread The Cult of Robbo

    , The Trebuchet MS. Clean, elegant, somewhat understated. Like a pie stain on his goateed jowls. I have admired the Robbo cult from afar and am constantly bewildered by the Rambling One. His "At-the-bar" with Timmsy gives me hope that one day I too can s**t in a paper bag and drop it front...

    What can you learn from a game like that?

    It's no fun playing a pissed-off premier who hates getting beaten with one day less to recover than them. No excuses, Geelong just went about proving a point in the most emphatic way possible. What I'd like to know is are Geelong at not-quite full strength THAT much better than the Dogs at...

    What did you do to deserve to follow Footscray/Western Bulldogs?

    ahh, the curse of geography and inherited misfortune. Grandfather, father, me - born at Western General. Grew up half hour away down Geelong Road, now live 5 minutes away up Williamstown Road (married to a Cats fan, oddly enough...quiet-ish cab ride home last night). Was sandwiched in...

    Dear lions_den Thank you for your honest appraisal. I will take your advice on board and in a manner resembling the ladder progress of your esteemed club in 2010, I will rapidly head south. I thought for a moment you were talking about a classic Ford Falcon that ruled the streets during my...

    The Classy Thread

    Dear Sirs Upon my stumbling into this here forum and perusing through the rich vein of diverse and well articulated viewpoints, a particular phrase entered my stream of consciousness. Faecal with treacle. That is correct. No matter how we sugar-coat it, it's ultimately shite. God save...

    Herald sun today

    I thought this was going to be about the front page "news" of the rekindling of Gaz' & Loz' romance. The scary part is many Victorians use this, mainstream radio 'talking heads' and Channels 7 & 9 as their contact with the outside world. Is it any wonder we're f%^ked?
