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.

    We could all meet there before the first NAB cup game.

    Sounds like a plan Mr. Leg

    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.

    "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 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.

    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.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
