    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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
