Steven (Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou) Top Guy...We would test Mrs. Wong on her Menu Memory when a group of us ABC persons would take over the Lazy Susan table quite often on a friday afternoon in the 80's...great days.

I thought the ABC crowd went to Merghellina Pizza a bit further down Glenhuntly Road on Fridays. Best pizza in town (current owner also Steve).

I often used to see ABC personalities down there - Noni Hazelhurst, the bloke who played Harold in Neighbours (?). Before she became a parliamentarian we used to see Mary Delahunty. Of course, when I was a kid you could get a sight of the great JO'K.

Me Too

Wow, tell you what, I'm in Perth and go to the EP games. I'll try and grab a chat with Fred (almost) Dee if anybody is interested at one of the post game functions and see if he has seen this board and ask him about his time at the Dees.

Let me know if you are interested or not or should we let the Victorian Freddie craze come to an end?

My mum always loved the banana fritters there, even though they did look a little turdlike.

You mean they look a bit like the father of a former Melbourne player who has a highly paid job with another club doing nothing.


Bahahahaha!! "Wong's After Hours....." what a TV Show...The Kam Yin Chinese in Elwood closed last year, that was dodgy...Never a customer, but always open....

Was that the one with the specials on dirty bits of paper stuck to the wall? What a classic .My dealers bong was cleaner than that joint .

This probably makes a group of 1 but I am interested ox_5

 

"we've done banana fritters sir"

Sir, we've been doing banana fritters for so long here that it's time to do something constructive with them.

I propose that from this day forward the father of HWSNBN should be called Phil Banana Fritter and that henceforth the son shall go by the name Tom Banana Fritter.

And may their careers in Bleaktown always be associated with the turdlike qualities and appearance of their new surname.

See that Ratten is pushing Gibbs up as the new star player at the club. Also saying they will finish top four. He is not too worried about putting his head on the chopping block it seems.

Not exactly, they were much thinner and didn't smell like s&?t

Saw movie "Warhorse", good for all the family.

Can also recommend The Ides of March if anyone hasn't seen it. Gosling and Clooney. Four star political drama.

Wow nice day yesterday. Cricket ball size hail and floods, not to mention dangerous lightning. Good day for a picnic.

The look in my Granddaughters eyes at 7.30 was way to good to be beaten by anything that happened later in the day.

Thank god for little children they give a big reason for being.

A couple more weeks and the footy news will start to dominate the sports media again.

A couple more weeks and the footy news will start to dominate the sports media again.

A couple of weeks and the Australian Open Tennis will be dominating the sports media and the footy won't be getting a look in. The next month is usually totally bereft of football. A good time to read thriller novels, go to the movies or listen to your favourite music.

Some good news for Demon fans.

I went to a barbecue on Christmas Day and Tom Banana Fritter and his family were there.

I spoke to Tom and he said that he is yet to make up his mind whether to stay at Melbourne or go to GWS. However, he did add that he and the folks are flying up to Sydney on New Year's Day just to have another good look around but the way he spoke of his love of the club and how he wants to be a one club player suggested that he will definitely stay.

BTW, the BBQ had to be cancelled after Phil B F started hoeing into the food early eating all the steaks, chops, sausages, salads, felafels and the ... er, um ... banana fritters. It was like someone worked over the food table with a vacuum cleaner.

The seasisde air is getting toy you Demon Head, have you forgotten the name of this thread?

Have you seen Dermott Brereton walking the street of his home town?

I think you've had too much Xmas cheer Redleg.

I'm in Canterbury and there's not a sniff of sea air in my nostrils.

Moreover, I don't believe they allow boguns like Dermie into this part of town.

Post code Vic 3126.

Couldn't be, there are no frogs in Canterbury Victoria, they are not allowed entry.

  • 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.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
