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.

Gawn on the long term injury list again. Anyone else getting worried about big Maxie ever being fit to play?

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.

I have my doubts. Long term investment that just gets longer.

What sort of money would he be on i wonder.

Good Evening demonlanders.

So far I am totally under whelmed.

Truly struggling to see the value.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
