All is not lost, OD. Here is a timely article on how to keep bananas ...

Have done most of that in the past R and B but that is very short term.

Last time it took twelve months to recover.

As I am very loath to take option 2 so I will have to consider NZ

Yes drastic I know but drastic situations deserve drastic solutions.

    You can actually grow your own in Melbourne these days -- saw a banana tree at my local Bunnings the other day. Besides, moving to NZ doesn't sound like a means of increasing banana availability ... :blink:

    Plenty there last time.

    Now forget Mitch Clark retiring, Forget Dawes and his fair floss legs, forget Gawn and his inability to play six games a year, forget low attendances, forget the worst list in AFL history, forget we could not beat time with a stick.

    Something really bad is on the horizon.

    Cyclone Ita is bearing down on the Queensland banana crop.

    Claimed to be as bad as Yasi in 2011

    If this happens I don't know what I will do.

    There may only be two alternatives that I can see

    - Migrate to NZ

    - take the ultimate solution to end the pain

    We have bananas crops in the West OD

    That works for me.

    However as I have had zero success contact her upstairs over the last half century I have no idea about how to contact the dark one.

    Anyone have an idea?

    I think I saw her last night as we were attacking the keep. She wiped us all out within seconds.

    just realised that if and only IF we were a winning club.

    this page would not even exist.

    so for all the doom and gloom,at best we are in front of other clubs,we have a common join and its catching.

    no winning equals friendship and hilarity for us on demonland.

    so we are winners in fact, thanks for the friendship everybody.

    In actual fact jazza we can thank the unmentionable one.

    That is the basic reason for this thread

    But leaving aside that person I can thank this tread for maintain my sanity and keeping me interested.

    Thanks for the comment I feel like we just won the flag.

    I read some mindless spy novel a few years ago where the villain (an assassin) had had his lower legs amputated. He then had a number of screw on prosthetics available so he could disguise himself as various heights.

    BTW. . I hope Biffen doesn't get any ideas!

    Those blue rinse Borewood women dont use plastic surgery-

    Daisycutter chases the ones who have had hip surgery.

    A couple of gins after Wednesday tennis and its game,set,match.

    I haven't had any ideas in quite some time.

    The medication,along with Demonland has seen to that.

    I feel so much better.

    Maybe Biff! However, I've also heard he lets down the tyres in their wheelchairs.

    Don't be ridiculous ,Daisy would never stoop to chaperoning the disabled for his own pleasures.

    Unless there was a sizeable will/dowry involved.

    There is no morality in Borewood!!

    That all depends on which set of keys you pull out of the bowl.

    They can't all be sex-crazed,conservative upper middle bed hoppers.

    Aren't their some freaky new wave Christian types as well?

    Now, I don't want to derail this thread (is there a thread to this thread to derail?) but I've just made a purchase on ebay and want to know who is with me on this.

    I have just purchased " The Samurai" complete series - every episode. Now fess up - who loved this show?

    I don't think DC would be overly fussy.

    By purchasing I will assume you paid a technologically superior younger person to download it for you.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
