A pet cockatoo. Now fancy that!

As a near neighbour, I always thought the loud screechy voice belonged to she who must be obeyed!

No that was Kennett the cocky.

BTW Mrs. Redleg is not amused.

Let's not let a 'D' get in the rode of the theme.

Could we get these ladies as the pre-game entertainment? Even Ben-Hur might be happy.

I'm thinking that Instead of scarves, we could issue members with red and blue bandanas.

And the players could wear them to look like badasses.

Good idea, we use the Hawks membership numbers rort. Yes we sign up our Alpacas, budgies, turtles, hamsters etc and suddenly we are a major club again. Sponsors will see us worthy of of their sponsorship dollars with our huge data base.

The AFL will once again see us as the major club we once were.

I will even join up my pet cockatoo with the loud screechy voice, who we named Kennett.

i knew a girl a long time ago who had a cockatoo

those were the days ...my friend

As we near 200 pages and 5000 posts, I think, for only a second, we should reflect on the post MFC career of that person, on Ablett like money up West of Sydney. Saturday, another typical day at the office, 13 possies at 60% effectiveness.

Oh well back to bananas.

Have not seen one for two days Redleg which is sad in its own right.

Even as we sit at the bottom with a crap list we did the better of that deal.

Thank God I have finished in the chair for 4+ months.

Today while the game was on as I sat through 110 minutes I thought hell this way better than being at the MCG.

How bloody sad is that!

I know how you feel, I was at the game.

I think we need to change the MCG seats to banana lounges. We will steer away from pies and chips and sell banana fritters, banana splits, banana bread and cake, banana mousse, duck a la banana sandwiches and washed down with those healthy banana smoothies. I will get the trumpeter to play the banana boat song and have the bananas in pyjamas selling raffle tickets at the games.

Every new member will get a free banana .

I will get this club moving again.

That might get the team playing like the Bananas in Pyjamas. Oh, hang on ... :-)

Great name! Has the cockatoo sued for defamation yet? :-)

No he is too busy running for President of the Australian Pigeon's Association, even though he is a cocky not a pigeon.

Stick to the banana crepes, they won't give you nightmares of Melbourne games.

Was in McDonalds this evening and noticed at the McCafe they were selling Banoffee cake... I can only presume it's a banana / coffee combo.

Could there be anything more repulsive?

Please, Redleg, tell me you're not a banoffee man ?

I stand corrected, sort of.

Google tells me banoffee is a mixture of banana, cream and toffee

Only slightly less repulsive than a banana coffee combo

Must admit I have never heard of it. Sounds like an interesting combo. I am prepared to try it.

For those interested I have a runner at Seymour thursday at 11.03, named Starcrazy. If not too heavy he should go ok.

Best banana crepe I ever had was sitting in a cinema in Hong Kong with only me and an old guy smoking up the back and coughing occasionally watching a horror movie I understood none of in Cantonese.

I still remember the creamy banananess of this crepe and the genuine smile of the woman who gave it to me.

Bananas are truly the king of fruit.

Sounds a bit suss, Yossarian.

No he is too busy running for President of the Australian Pigeon's Association, even though he is a cocky not a pigeon.

Was just there for the visa. The crepe was a bonus, and pretty much the highlight of a very brief visit.

Cocky little bugger! (and for that matter, so is the bird ... :lol: )

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
