So who is going to the game this weekend (you know, that thing we do when we are not obsessing about bananas ... ??)

I am not mate have not seen you for sometime.

I am in the kill zone not attending major public gatherings until vaccinated which with the current rapid rate is probably July.

    All good OD. I sort of lost interest in following the Dees last year, and have only had my enthusiasm renewed by the new season and the prospect of witnessing a game in person (and the first one at the 'G, and on a Saturday afternoon, which is like a siren call to me).

    I understand the desire to stay safe at home and out of the way of the Virus-that-shall-not-be-named. That bloody thing is more infectious than the Dee's inability to kick straight ...

    First game at the G since Queens birthday 2019. I was so demoralised with our season I didn’t go to another game after that.

    Looking forward to spending a Saturday afternoon in the G, sun shining, enjoying a few beers and hopefully a Dees win. It’s been too long.

    Hopefully we can start the season with a win. Don’t want to be dropping a game at home, first up, against a middle of the ladder side the year before. Need those 4 points.

    Ratcheting it up for what is the first game of the season. Wrong psychology Red. You should be saying it’s ok to drop the first game, let’s wait until mid season.  Freo is a good side that is likely to turn it on with speed and overlap. We can’t expect to win the first game. It’s a long season and we take each game and remain detached until the season gets serious. 

    Meditate Red.

    No doubt that will be good for you but to be brutally  honest it won’t make a fig of difference to the result.

    Not at all as I said will be good for you but as your long experience has shown the Dees will do there normal thing.

    If we have come to meditating in the hope that it will affect the result then all is lost Ernest.

    Unripe bananas can give you constipation. It’s a well known fact.

    I do not know the (somewhat strange) references to and history of bananas on this site, but I've just come across this (for me at least) interesting fact about bananas:

    Bananas are both a fruit and not a fruit. While the banana plant is colloquially called a banana tree, it's actually an herb distantly related to ginger, since the plant has a succulent tree stem, instead of a wood one. The yellow thing you peel and eat is, in fact, a fruit because it contains the seeds of the plant.

    There should only be a one round season in 2021. That way we can play in the finals again!

    Blair Campbell, who enjoyed a brief spell with us in the late sixties (before my time) was credited with inventing the banana-kick.

    Not a renowned exponent of the fine art Ed Langdon executed his banana-kick perfectly on the weekend. Struggling to think of other examples in recent times of other Dees players doing the same.

    Yes and he did it on the run which is not easy. 
    the Wiz and Yze could execute the banana quite well.

    True but its been a while since the Wix and Yze ran around for us. I guess it demonstrates the paucity of talent we've had in recent times.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
