Redleg,

You'll be delighted to know that I've put you down for a coaching position with the Demonland/Demonology team purely on the basis that one of our players is called "Bananas".

I will have to see where I am at. Currently being interviewed for Saints senior coaching position and Magpies senior assistant. My record precedes me.

If you are selected and take up either of those appointments, nobody around here will ever communicate with you again. It might just be the biggest decision you will ever have to make. Weigh it up carefully!

While reading Demonland I went on you tube and don't yell at me people but I have enjoyed can't Speak French by Girls Aloud. Good song and great visual. Now listening to Sly and Family Stone greatest hits. Better than bananas.

Unfortunately I know who you are listening to.

God we are old!

Is it just me or do others feel the same about trade week.

There are as many stories as people who want to create them.

I suspect that 90% of the stories we see are based on very little if any hard evidence.

So I will believe a story when it is proved to be a fact.

i.e. when a player is reported to have officially moved then it is fact up till then it just the figment of someone's imagination.

Same old dee. As Tim Harrington said about 2 % of the stories being floated around trade week come off and are true. The rest is really spak filler. Clearly it gets the blood pumping for some and like our resident member daisycutter it represents a chance to boost their post count. haha. :P;)

I think it would be worthwhile after 5pm Thursday and at the conclusion on Monday for results.

I heard (third hand) of a club official describing trade week as "that week where we try to offload all our players that are no good, and every other club tries to do the same". Pretty much sums it up, really.

Apparently Cooney may have been on the table. Some reporter on SEN apparently i read it on Bf though.

Anyway this can be a sign of how bad degenerating knee injuries can be? what is Cooney 25 and could be a shadow of himself? struggled this year and apparently takes alot of pain suppressants to get a game in.

Maybe if we threw in 5 Kg of Banana's at the latest price along with pick 12 and one of our compensation picks. That might have done it. Sheeds loves banana's.

Forget pick 12 you had me with the 5KG of bananas

Now changing to "Not a TS, JO'M, BC or MC Thread" to cater for that bloke from the Lions who prefers Yo ho Freo to It's a Grand Old Flag. He's got to be a cretin, surely?

I'm not suggesting you do this WJ, but an alternate title for this thread might simply be 'Bananas'. There seems to be as much discussion of that particular fruit as any other topic, and without wanting to mention names, I'm starting to think that some of the contributors (myself included) have gone a bit 'bananas'.

Edit: Proof that I'm more than a bit 'bananas'!

Bananas is already a tag for this thread and you're right - anyone who maintains their loyalty for the red & blue for a long time in the circumstances has to be bananas and a bit of a fruit loop.

The fact that Redleg and I post here just confirms this as a fact.

Speaking of Bananas, Mrs Redleg wanted to share a banana smoothie for lunch and I declined saying we had not traded anyone and there was nothing to celebrate. Skinny Latte was the substitute.

Hope we don't miss out on too many more players or the title of the thread will be too big for Demonland.

Saturday Banana Jokes ( I didn't say they were any good, but at least as exciting as trade week )

Why are bananas never lonely?

Because they hang around in bunches.

Why did the banana go out with the prune?

Because he couldn't find a date.

What's yellow and writes?

A ball-point banana.

What would you call two banana skins ?

A pair of slippers.

What is the difference between a banana and a bell?

You can only peel (peal) the banana once.

Why is a banana peel on the sidewalk like music?

Because if you don't C sharp you'll B flat.

    POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    After a very wasteful first half of footy the Demons ended up cruising to a clinical victory over the Saints by 38 points at the MCG and ultimately reclaimed a coveted spot in the Top 4.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    The Demons return to the MCG to take on the Saints in Round 11 on the back of two straight losses in a row. With Jake Lever out with concussion who comes in and who goes out?
