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.

 

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.

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 ...

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.

I always admire someone who can admit their mistakes WJ

Oh hang on I just re read ...................

 

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.

yep...and yummm :)))

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.

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.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
