    Wow.  A couple of years and several hundred pages since I’ve visited this thread.  And I only have to scroll back a few posts to see bananas are still a hot topic!

    Congrats on the persistence!

    On 8 April 1985, during a VFL reserves game, Bourke kicked Sydney Swans ruckman Pat Foy in the groin in response to Foy tagging him throughout the game. When umpire Phil Waight attempted to report Bourke for the incident, Bourke shoved him to the ground and kicked him, and also made contact with a Collingwood runner who was attempting to take him off the ground before running into the stands to attack a Swans fan.[2]

    The match was being broadcast on the Seven Network, with commentator Ray Jordon crying "You've gotta take the boy off!" as the incident unfolded.[3]

    As a result, Bourke was handed a suspension of ten years, equivalent to 240 matches.[4] It was later reduced to six years.[5]

    I understand how he felt, half way through the third quarter of the 21 granny, I got up to do the dishes rather than abuse my wife and the TV.  Her cry of,  they have just kicked a goal brought me back very quick.  the dishes waited for a while.

    Eff it, I hope I can be at the ground this year if we make it.   Go Dees     Love this thread.

    Thanks 640MD. The love for this thread is really lovely. I loved creating it and am loving that so many intelligent people have also loved it. I feel it has created many mores loves and lovers as a result. 
    The loveliest comments of the posters have always demonstrated their loveliness, in their appreciation of the thread. I personally have felt lovesick and lovelorn when away from the thread for any short period of time. It is a thread that has many lovelocked and loved up and sometimes feels like a love affair with the written word.

    As they say, all you need is ❤️ love.

    Have to admit rather sheepishly, I had my first pinacolada in many years last night and it was very disappointing. I remember it as a creamy drink and this one wasn’t that at all.

    Possibly coconut flavouring instead of coconut cream Red.

    Same thing was happening on the cruise we went on back in May.  They did a great job with the presentation but it was like having a pineapple slurpy!

    Any decent Pina should also start with Bacardi Gold as the base with hints of caramel, almond & most importantly... banana!!

      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.
