    Back in Melbourne after going through Cyclone Oswald at Gold Coast. It was really scary. Lucky to get a flight out of Brisbane today.

    My god. This thread has gone full circle.

    Those banana prices near the start of this thread went sky high....due to the 2011 floods and cyclone Yasi. We here have seen those prices fall as new crops prospered and the demand for bananas decrease.

    Now Redleg having been the creator of this thread has dashed out of Brisbane / Gold Coast on a risky flight in very tricky winds as parts of Brisbane, greater Queensland and New South Wales re-visit record floods from early 2011.

    Whilst we send our best wishes and support to those in need in difficult times, let us also hope that there is no increase in prices of bananas and the demand for banana smoothies, fritters etc is not affected!

    Australia certainly can be tough at times, cyclones, floods, droughts, bushfires and now tornadoes. Still we are the lucky country. All the best to the people suffering at the moment and I mean the weather victims, not Melbourne supporters.

    Yep me

    But every time I raise it I get criticized for being alarmist or pessimistic.

    The guy has had two knee recos and now a long term Hamstring in 3 years.

    Has not played for 18 months.

    I have serious doubts his legs are up to the rigours of AFL.

    But hell he is fine!

    If it makes you feel better I don't think he will play regularly until 2015...

    Ruckmen are such an investment. Especially ones taken at 18 with bad knees.

    It may seem strange but I realised that was your opinion a ways back rpfc

    Yes I do feel better that someone at least acknowledes the possibility.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
