I was going to say something about that... along the lines of having ones cake and eating it too :rolleyes:

Yeah, no point in saving banana cake -- carpe bananum and all that ... :lol:

Today I went to the football

I have no idea why

I need help

Ditto. I did think in the last quarter that OD and BB made much better choices for the weekend ...

Well my big weekend in Bendigo turned to nothing.

Five of us getting together.

Friday one was down with flu, one broke his arm Thursday night, third one had to visit wife in hospital after fall from a golf cart.

Yes you are reading correctly she fell out of golf cart.

So the two of us left standing called the weekend early Saturday morning.

After some discussion we are all on for next weekend.

There seems to be a bit of sadness around tonight did we lose on Saturday or something.

Sorry to hear it, OD, but you know the saying -- there is always next week! :lol:

It wouldn't surprise me if the new chairman posted on Demonland. I believe that it should be a prerequisite for any candidate to post here a minimum of 3 months before being considered for office. That and a ravenous desire to devour bananas.

If by "here" you mean on this thread, then no problem. On some of the others, I think three months would be akin to a sentence for daylight robbery ...

The problem is R and B none of us are getting any younger.

We starting talking about this two years ago there were six then!

It is on next weekend come hell or high water.

I hope this not a omen but I will be in Bendigo next weekend!

Sounds like it will be more enjoyable, even if we win by 100+. Any victory for us this season will be sweet, but soon forgotten; a weekend catching up with old mates will surely be something that lives in the memory for ever. Hence don't think of it as an omen, but the right decision.

That's the spirit! The Dees certainly provided the hell on the weekend ... :blink:

I had a serious car crash this morning.

100% my fault, inattention.

One metre further into the intersection and I think I would have been watching the Dees from another dimension.

Everyone walked away ok.

Puts the MFC in a different perspective.

Never forget to tell your loved ones you do!

Glad you are well enough to be at your keyboard telling us about it. It does put things in perspective though.

Old Dee-you will have to stop posting in the car,and turn down the stereo.

Glad to hear you are well.I think we discussed insurance on this forum once so i take it you have some.

Daisycutter-a French philosopher once said"I would rather die young than compromise by eating Margarine".

Hope you are running on all chambers/valves soon.

I'm sure i'll go in a 4 cylinder and come out a V8

I wonder if this might be a strategy worth pursuing for the current list? Would asada approve?

Just a thought

They tried that with Cale but the doctors refused to operate because his chest was too small and they couldn't find his heart.

If worst comes to worst DC, perhaps one of my "lads" would make the ultimate sacrife and donate a valve. No guarantees of course.

Glad to hear you're OK OD. However, if you were in another dimension upward there would be better things to do than watch the dees. If you were in another dimension downward, watching the dees would be the equivalent of eternal damnation.

Glad to hear you are alright, OD. Certainly puts things in perspective. Good omen, I guess, as it seems that luck is on your side on the things that count.

thanks for the offer bbo, but one of burwood's finest porkers has already volunteered (with just a little coercion)

    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.
