    Well certainly not for banana bread.

    Had some banana cake myself today, and it was a lot better than stale cardboard (and not Starbucks, too).

    Thanks will look forward to it. Shared a banana smoothie with Mrs. Redleg yesterday from a place called the Avenue and it was great.

    It can be done though. As I said the banana bread at Starbucks was ordinary and I have had banana smoothies that were warm and tasteless.

    One must treat the banana with respect.

    They are obviously not known for their use of the banana.

    Nearly every thread I see started on Demonland is full of gloom and doom. Can't we get one thread with some good news for a change.

    You mean apart from this one? :-) The Aaron Davey one got close for about 6 posts or so.

    Redleg I don't find it hard to understand.

    I know lots will say I am overly pessimistic but I struggle to see any positives at present.

    We seem to be down a large hole and have not stopped digging.

    the only thing to discuss each week is the size of the loss.

    No one connected with the club ever even says the "win" word these days.

    I try to stay off most threads, not very successfully I might add.

    Can you think of anything positive to discuss as I cannot

    We will have a new Government in a few months and maybe a new Coach in a few weeks.

    It is the next few months that is the problem Redleg.

    Amazing to say this but this weekend with the game in WA on Sunday night

    I might be able to block out the MFC and enjoy the weekend.

    If the media will just talk about other teams I am home.

    Another interesting factor is i have almost lost all interest in AFL teams.

    Most weekends I struggle to know who has won.

    The converse is I am really enjoying the Amos and plan to visit my old Country team in July.

    Big weekend planned with a few of my old mates from my school days.

    Robbo on AFL 360 said that if we get belted by Freo he expects a big press conference by Tuesday.

    Does Robbo have any suggestions as to what might happen if we got up and won?

    Don't think he sees that as a realistic option.

    So if it's not after getting belted by GCoast at the G, it's getting belted by seasoned finals team in Freo at Pattersons...

    Right.

    I have never done this before, but on sunday, after about the first 20 minutes of the game, I fast forwarded to half time, watched a bit of the third quarter and then deleted the game, including the last quarter.

    It is deplorable that any enjoyment of football has been taken from us.

    I did something I have never done as well Redleg I did not intend to listen / watch the game.

    I heard the score on ABC news and got what i expected.

    Like you the MFC gives me nothing but pain now.

    Never in 53 years have I ever been in this position, even in the dark days of the seventies did I feel remotely close to this.

    I wake every day now and half wish to pick up the HUN and find we have returned our licence.

    God delivery me.

    • 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.
