another exciting trade day

if the afl have any brains they will extend trade period to 3 weeks and start a trade tv channel in full hd

1. Your premise is false.

2. Really? You must be magnificently bored ... It would be more exciting to watch Biff entertaining the lads ... :):blink:

Only if 7 is excluded.

Hoping for a miracle, an ice breaker, a 3rd party, .... something..

Off topic.....

Any 'Back to The Future' watchers and/or history buffs?

Chicago Cubs - 107 yrs since having won the world series. In the movie, one of the characters got hold of a Sports Almanac, went back to the past and loaded up on the Cubs when it got to 2015 - knowing that they'd won as a 200-1 shot.

In real life now - 2015 - the Cubs have now made their divisional final and aren't all that far from the World Series.

Thought I'd share.

You can all have that 1 minute back now.......#tradeweekboredom

Or split personality

Is it Christian Doppler?

Apparently I have an assistant.

Cheers. Plenty of countdowns on this thread.

Just thought I'd re-visit the first several pages of this thread. Below is the post that started the banana talk. Much better prices nowadays. Think making a smoothie now will kill some trade time and satisfy the tastebuds: -

Pods and some other senior player are 50/50 for this week. Pods could be rested and out for Mooney.

What's with banana's at $14.00 P/kg these days ? Don't tell me the carbon tax is up and running already....

No Banana but REAL bagel, cream cheese and Coffee.

Excellent way to start Caulfield cup day

I am off for breakfast with Mrs. Redleg. Nice banana smoothie is already in my thoughts.

Interesting experience yesterday I am keen basket ball follower and for many years I was a Tigers member.

When the Tigers became Melbourne United I lost a lot of interest in the NBL.

So after good results in the pre season competition and two from two wins in the season proper I decided to go last night.

The United won again and even at this stage look to be good chances to go all the way this season.

It was a good game but I found myself an on looker rather than being involved with the team.

I was purely an observer.

I just cannot get involved the way i used with the Tigers.

There is talk of the TIGERS returning in a few seasons time, that looks a pipe dream to me.

Also I am not sure how you barrack for the "United" !

I drove home thinking this game confirmed why I still follow AFL

My team is still there. If the Dees were to fold I would be an observer of AFL.

PS there was a very good crowd which just shows people will follow winnners even when they they have no history, have a god awful strip and no emblem as such.

People like to win. They also don't enjoy losing a whole lot, but i suppose you can be philosophical about it ( or just resigned lol )

I like to win, to revel in the euphoria. Might even happen with the Dees, but I'm philosophical :rolleyes:

Speaking of winning.

The trifecta will be from 2,10,17 and 6 .

Believe me,the punt has made me the man I am today.

So much anger on the Trade Board. Obviously banana deprivation.

Yeah too many monkeys and not enough bananas ... How was the smoothie?

I am with you on that one, OD. I can;t get into the United, no matter how many games they win. The Melbourne Tigers were a real club, with history, feeder programs, good links between layers (like NBL players coaching juniors), and all that goes with it. United? Sounds like a synthetic bunch with no appeal for me.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
