The braised fruit bat I had in Vanuatu a couple of years back was an absolute delicacy. Washed down with a fine French Burgundy, it was sensational, and much better than any of their tropical fruits.

ps. no Hendra virus over there apparently.

You are a tough man Deeoldfart

You need to be our next Chairman

Anyone that can eat a fruit bat and enjoy it will find no difficultity in taking the strong action needed at the MFC.

I thought I was to be the popularly elected President.

Now we are hearing about Deeoldfart, Stockdale, Freeman and even Kennett. What is going on?

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

Amen to that, OD. Bananas rock ...

Might help your campaign to start eating bats Redleg.

I think your opponents are painting you as a vegan who hugs trees and has no steel for the job ahead.

As an advisor I suggest you remove all fruit especially that yellow fruit from your life.

Then call a campaign meeting with the press and have a barbecue serving rare steak eaten with your bare hands.

That should get you back on track.

sorry , im not voting for anyone who eats bats. :huh:

But what if the fruit bats were eating your favourite bananas ... Besides, if you can eat fruit bats, the vampires of the press shouldn't trouble you too much :lol:

Perhaps they eat bats R&B?

Bat-eating vampires? Wow, that must have been a very nice pineapple, OD :wacko: Then again, a Demon Lord is probably able to eat whatever its black heart wants to ... :)

NEWS ALERT

The MFC will be drafting Gumby for its Mid Field.

I withdraw my candidature on the grounds that a self confessed bat eating Demon would be unlikely to win popular support.

That's not what my wife called me at the time, I promise you that!

Dunno. Has anything happened today?

Quiet day really but things got interesting on the football front this evening when the Hawks did the job on the Blues.

The result proved to me that Jeff's a lunatic. Why would you give up supporting Buddy, Roughhead and co to become President of the MFC?

Surely, if he really wanted a challenge, the green pastures of GWS await him. There's a certain recruiting officer in that area who could do with some mentoring and weight loss advice.

If the said recruiting officer takes the eating advice on this thread, there will soon be a world shortage of fruit bats and cockroaches ... :lol:

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
