Well certainly not for banana bread.

Had some banana cake myself today, and it was a lot better than stale cardboard (and not Starbucks, too).

Thanks will look forward to it. Shared a banana smoothie with Mrs. Redleg yesterday from a place called the Avenue and it was great.

It is hard to screw up Bananas!

It can be done though. As I said the banana bread at Starbucks was ordinary and I have had banana smoothies that were warm and tasteless.

One must treat the banana with respect.

If anyone could it would be Starbucks Redleg

They are obviously not known for their use of the banana.

Nearly every thread I see started on Demonland is full of gloom and doom. Can't we get one thread with some good news for a change.

You mean apart from this one? :-) The Aaron Davey one got close for about 6 posts or so.

Redleg I don't find it hard to understand.

I know lots will say I am overly pessimistic but I struggle to see any positives at present.

We seem to be down a large hole and have not stopped digging.

the only thing to discuss each week is the size of the loss.

No one connected with the club ever even says the "win" word these days.

I try to stay off most threads, not very successfully I might add.

Can you think of anything positive to discuss as I cannot

We will have a new Government in a few months and maybe a new Coach in a few weeks.

It is the next few months that is the problem Redleg.

Amazing to say this but this weekend with the game in WA on Sunday night

I might be able to block out the MFC and enjoy the weekend.

If the media will just talk about other teams I am home.

Another interesting factor is i have almost lost all interest in AFL teams.

Most weekends I struggle to know who has won.

The converse is I am really enjoying the Amos and plan to visit my old Country team in July.

Big weekend planned with a few of my old mates from my school days.

Does Robbo have any suggestions as to what might happen if we got up and won?

Don't think he sees that as a realistic option.

Posted

Robbo on AFL 360 said that if we get belted by Freo he expects a big press conference by Tuesday.

So if it's not after getting belted by GCoast at the G, it's getting belted by seasoned finals team in Freo at Pattersons...

Right.

I have never done this before, but on sunday, after about the first 20 minutes of the game, I fast forwarded to half time, watched a bit of the third quarter and then deleted the game, including the last quarter.

It is deplorable that any enjoyment of football has been taken from us.

I did something I have never done as well Redleg I did not intend to listen / watch the game.

I heard the score on ABC news and got what i expected.

Like you the MFC gives me nothing but pain now.

Never in 53 years have I ever been in this position, even in the dark days of the seventies did I feel remotely close to this.

I wake every day now and half wish to pick up the HUN and find we have returned our licence.

God delivery me.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
