With all respect bj. The issue here for me is how we got to talking about bananas. DC and myself were happily discussing Alexander Downer's Indian odyssey or was that another Alexander, anyway that doesn't matter, then DFrog takes over the night shift from WA and starts talking about Chinese bananas!

I think the main issue here is we are not doing proper handovers to the night shift in WA. I used to have this problem at work when I worked in operations. Shift change overs are all important. Of course no matter what we do it may all be wasted on DeeFrog. He does seem obsessed with bananas.

Shhh Earl.

I should have been watching the wife play hockey and not posting on the DL forum on my mobile last night.

Happy Wife = Happy Life.

PS I have no bananas in this house and the football is on today.

 

Speaking of which, the place that made my favourite banana smoothies has closed down, due to a redevelopment.

This is hard to cop.

Your are a Lawyer Red.

Surely there was some legal action you could have done to stop this from happening?

at least get it right.....it was a pygmy marmoset.....sheez!

And I bet the Pygmy marmoset is thanking the gods it was already dead.

 

When does the 2016 AFL season start again?


Both covered in cow shite no doubt.

No point in washing them,its gonna rain at sometime.

Sue them for lack of comfortable satisfaction? :blink::blink:

my sympathies red. We'll fly a yellow flag at half mast.

I empathise. A cafe i haunted until recently changed hands. Im not sure how you bugger up a banana thickshake but the new management have ( worked it out )

I , of course, had to seek new surroundings.

Remember Einstein's maxim: "There are only two infinite things - the universe, and human stupidity, and I am not so sure about the universe".

Surely jazza real men milk camels and don't wash cars ... :blink::blink:

Have to ask BBO about milking camels R@B.

After all it is womens work.

Having read about how camel milk is the new 'it' recently, and knowing that camels can be large, stubborn and very onery beasts, I am not sure I share your opinion (and for that matter, my mother, grandmother and two aunts all thought nothing of milking a few cows without machinery).

Not sure about the camels, gents. Isn't it the alpacas that are milked up Bitter's way?

BBO milks any teat he can get his hands on Maple. The rest he subbies out.

alpacas are just pygmy camels

if women milk camels who or what milks alpacas?

i'll let you ponder that


Went to the footy in high spirits yesterday. The sun was shining and I was to meet a classy sheila for pre game drinks.

Well it quickly went Sh ite as both Biffen and Moonie turned up at the same venue. Moonie looked as though he had just emerged from an op shop bin while Biffen was playing his respectable role and wearing a stolen tweed jacket. I could only assume that both of them had been lost in the outback recently as they began downing beers at a frantic rate.

I held on to my wallet very tightly.

They suggested enjoying the football together so, in deference to good manners I reluctantly agreed. However, my fellow members should thank me as we sat with the commoners in the outer.

An interesting day. Moonie continued to gush his unbridled joy for "Wills and Kate". He even became teary once or twice. Biffen seemed surprisingly and unusually drug free so was determined to make up for it by alcohol consumption.

Then they both became abusive and aggressive hurling quite vicious personal insults at all and sundry. Even nearby Demon supporters were appalled.

I have no doubt that a review of the CCTV will see them both (rightly) banned.

It is doubtful that my classy sheila will ever accompany me to the football again.

Edited by Bitter but optimistic

If I recall with greater accuracy, Uncle Bitter spent the afternoon leering at women nearby, regardless of age, race, religion or se xuality. You are the consummate equal opportunist Bitty. When I commented on a good passage of play of a goal, you brushed my comment off, as your focus was elsewhere. At your age, it's difficult to focus beyond 1 metre.

Biffen went out of the beer gates fast, downing about 8 pots in the first hour. The police must have been tailing him from the Gat because there seemed to be a high concentration of the blue brigade in the isles around our seats. I must say, its been a while since I sat next to someone who could shout so loud that the players on the far side wing jumped with fright. I believe I now have permanent hearing loss in my left ear. Thanks Biff. I rang the obscene behaviour phone number, but they put me on hold due to a large number of calls from our bay. BBO, your classy sheila will no longer attend the football with you because of your wretched halitosis, she told me.

Apart from the match, my 2 disappointments for the day were:

  • Watching Biff engage in a thespian conversation with the only Freo supporter game enough to sit near us, what a traitor to his class!
  • BBO and Biff stopping beer consumption at 3/4 time despite my demands to toughen up. Soft cooks.

Maybe a writ of Habeus Corpus, to Produce the Smoothie.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.

  • NON-MFC: Round 15

    As the Demons head into their Bye Round, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches being played. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around?

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?
