Mr Leg how is Briefed's hammy

Appears to be fine. Guess it was track too hard and second up from a spell which is usually his poorest run.

Congratulations on getting this thread to 200 pages Redleg.

As one of the moderators on Demonland, I think our decision to allow it to go beyond the second or third page would be, without doubt, the greatest blunder we've made on the site but now that the damage has been done, please continue ...

Banoffee is a delicacy in Scotland.

Runs a close second to deep fried Mars bars.

Redleg I think you will have a very heavy track at Seymour. (oops! just checked abandoned)

Does anyone know a reliable Handyman looking for work?. (sounds a bit oxymoronish)

Tradies have been letting me down for months.

Good decision Jack. It's a bye for the Dees this weekend, and consequently my first visit to this thread since 13 Feb. Perhaps I should be spending more of my time here ...... it's considerably less depressing.

Well 200 pages a Tribute to a little common sense in the crazy world of the MFC.

Who would have thought in July 2011 we would reach this lofty height.

Among many things a tribute to a simple fruit and common sense.

Thanks everyone this thread has kept me sane through some very ordinary times.

I look forward to the 300th page

Good advice I'm sure old dee. Maybe a few of us should have listened more closely to your sage words before the start of the season, .......................... but we shouldn't go down that path now, it could ruin the fabric of this thread, or the thread of this fabric, or something (??).

I certainly feel all warm and fuzzy when I enter the thread. Maybe it is due to the aroma of bananas.

Can't believe that on the last two abandoned meetings, I have had a runner each time. Seymour now transferred to saturday.

And the warm feeling of friendship.

I had what may be the best Pineapple I have ever eaten in Bangkok.

Lovely and cold from a street cart.

It was sitting on ice and they sell it to you cut in pieces in a plastic bag.

Also provide a small bag of sugar and chilli.

dip the pineapple in the sugar mixture.

Sounds strange but works really well.

Glad the new teeth are working well OD.

Crunch into a few of those fried crickets if you get the chance-bloody tasty with a beer.

Have heard plenty of comment on these Biff but have not seen any!

I had them offered to me at a roadside stall in Malaysia. I politely declined (although they did look crunchy) and stuck to the warm beer.

Now this is reducing the tenor of the thread but I am told you see them the next day in the loo Bbo!

    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
