How long can you live on that once or twice a year R&B when the other games are mostly 10+ thrashings and the game is over at quarter time?

I am just about at the end.

By the way I remember the old race, it is very likely we were both sitting there near each other with our respective dads.

Great memories mate are about all I have left.

I hear you, OD, but living on the good stuff is better than the alternative. 1981 lives on in my memory for a visit to training with my Dad (who knew one of the then training staff) and briefly meeting Ron Barassi, the applause that greeted Ron before the first game against Hawthorn (grrr!) and Robbie's mark in the goal square to kick the winning goal against Footscray for our only win of the season. Otherwise a season full of garage, long since forgotten. Life is too short; you have to focus on only the good bits.

Interesting comment about the old race --- small world, eh? (or large crowd :lol: ) I have a feeling that I may end up there more often if we perform like we did in that quarter ...

There's a few posters working hard lately to get their post count up

Is there a competition on and nobody told me?

Yes, but don't tell anyone else! First prize is a reserved seat for our next game at Geelong (second prize is two seats :blink: )

I am struggling to read any other thread at present dc.

We are going round and round in an every decreasing spiral.

Is there anything left to say?

A few posters keep me coming back to this thread and that is about all I can muster at present.

This could be the raffle in which no one bought a ticket.

The way things are going, if I had every ticket in the raffle, I still wouldn't win.

Whenever that happens, Redleg, I'll shout you a banana smoothie ...

There is a whole lot of self-flagellation on most other threads, which is understandable, but I find it gets a bit boring after the 37th time ... I find it hard to understand why some people seem to enjoy arguing the pants off each other about how bad we are ('No, I said we are crappier than crappy crap' 'But I think we are crapper than that!' etc). But then I find it hard to understand how people make money out of hip-hop ... :lol:

The world is full of thinks I don't understand, like how come all USA bank notes are the same size and colour?

To make them much easier to counterfeit, of course (especially all the Masonic symbols on the $1 bill) ...

Good afternoon fellow banana lovers.

Any news worth discuss that does not involve, sacking MN, the new GM achieving miracles in 6 months or slagging off my fellow Demonlanders?

I had a very nice banana sandwich for lunch so far the highlight of my day.

You know I don't want to be the bearer of more bad news, but Elvis died of a heart attack, due to his obese condition, contributed to by his constant eating of fried banana sandwiches.

I hope your sandwich, or the banana wasn't fried.

Wholemeal bread with natural Banana straight out of the skin that was it Redleg.

Washed down with a cup of English breakfast.

Thank you for the concern for my health.

Bloody sad that this is the most positive thing I can talk about today on Demonland.

Can you imagine if they had the anti-obesity drug AOD-9604 around in 1977, Elvis could have become a champion Essendon footballer?

You're lucky, I can't even think of one positive today

And to cap it off my central heating unit packed up, and so far i can't get a service man before next tuesday

Typical pizz weak suburbanite. You should try toughing it out in the bush. We have to cut down trees to provide fuel for our firepits.

Unfortunately fire pits got banned in burwood in the '70s.

too many locals went missing and the stench was terrible

we had to get more inventive and sophisticated in making people disappear

Is that how you got rid of the commos ( or other minority groups which I dare not mention nowadays) ?

we don't talk about left-wing post-materialist inner-suburbanites with government contracts in the inner-to-middle suburbs

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
