Days till the end of our year bb?

four more matches and the pain stops for 2013.

I thought it was the number of slices of banana cake to be consumed by the end of the season ... :blink:

When I think about 4 AFL memberships and 2 MCC memberships this year that were totally wasted money, I think of how many banana foods and drinks that would have got me.

Have received absolutely no value whatsoever from those memberships.

I think of mine as a Charitable donation redleg.

Not sure if that helps you.

but it helps me to dull the pain.

I don' t really see the AFL and the MCC as charities.

I think that all the contributors to this thread that live in Melbourne should get together at the end of the year for a drink to drown our sorrows and to meet each other.

I suggest around mid to late November so we can also discuss the drafting and trading that has been done. By then all will be finished except the PSD and Rookie draft.

We could arrange banana daiquiris or banana smoothies and banana cake, banana bread, banana chips and other banana delicacies.

What do you all think?

I think we should meet in Innisfail-an economy under great stress for several years (due to cyclones that have affected us all) and turn it into a national festival.The possibilities are ripe. We should celebrate this great berry.

Great idea Red. However, it needs to be informal - I don't want to be signing autographs but I want people to feel free to touch my robe.

But feel free to make the trip, Melbourne in November is always good and we have not lost a match in November for a very long time

I would imagine the idea is all are invited but the notion being it will be in Melbourne. Those living here will find it the most practical to attend.

I wouldnt think for one moment theres any exclusivity intended...... just a acknowledgement of geography only :)

Great idea, Redleg. We could also discuss how the boys are training the house down under the new coach ... :-)

No alpacas, though ... :-)

    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
