Today it has been announce that the Melbourne Tigers Basketball club will field a team in the SEABL in 2016.

This is the first step for the "Tigers" to return to the NBL at some point down the track.

I and a lot of others will once again have a team to support in 2016 and beyond.

"Go Tigers"

Yes, I recall you being 'correct' post after post after post one grand final a couple of years ago. Not your finest moment Clint, well worth the sabbatical. 

Unlike yourself I like to move on Moon! You are probably still wallowing in the glory days... of the 1940'S!

Had a great banana smoothie at Little Oak, in Waverley Road East Malvern, this morning.

I feel uplifted.

Make my own most mornings red, with a bit of yoghurt and red and blue berries!

Anyone else see the ACDC stage bathed in red & blue during Hells Bells? 

The last time I was Etihad was against the Giants.

 

Both good memories

Oh and I have not seen a negative MFC story in weeks and we are still undefeated.

Life can be good most days.

i had a down-sized banana for breakfast, red

thought it only right at my age to contribute something back to the economy

I had a delicious banana daiquiri at El Floridita Hotel today with Ernest. He wasn't there in body but he was in spirit. Plenty of bananas in Cuba and they do taste sweet. I can see a business opportunity here, bananas and guava paste, not sure what we can off load on them in exchange though, perhaps some of our marketing gurus to convince them of their need for some superfluous stuff they haven't got? 

Good to see so many of you treating the banana with the respect it deserves.

I have just started my annual fitness kick, to get my body in shape for the coming season. It hasn't worked for the last several years, but you can only try.

The diet will kick in too. I will have my banana smoothies made with skinny milk from now on. May have to give up on the banana splits and sundaes though.

The Provendor next door makes a delightful mango smoothie. As good as a meal. They do a berry milkshake and will see if they can come up with a Raspberry and Blueberry version.

Also very sorry to read of Jazza's passing. As a greater observer than contributor I always enjoyed his comments and observations.  Many of his references struck home with me reminding me of glories past chasing the elusive waves down Johanna way and my formative years at the back end of the cow. What a pity he has only seen the beginning of the resurgence. May his memory stimulate us all.

I have never got into Mango smoothies. Don't mind a mango juice, but not as a smoothie.

Unbelievable. How unprofessional.
