Might be the wrong thread for this. Perhaps the NoTS no BS thread would be better. Craig Jennings going to Japan could have something to do with creating a Japanese style garden in Yarra Park so that there's a area of peaceful contemplation for stressed players or fans to go to regain their equilibrium, which, god knows, we often need. Perhaps looking into the efficacy of having petite women walking barefoot across players backs to enhance post game recovery. Certainly some demonlanders would love to give it a go and see if it helps. Anyone had any experience in this area?? BBO ?

What's this suggestion aboot. ???

I just got a Land Rover last month now i want them yo sponsor the club

I think we're misunderstanding the clever thought processes of the Nabobs in the AFL hierarchy. They see a chance to showcase Carlton, a great team in the making, no doubt. Put them in a high profile match against a team they could beat... they win and hey presto they're on their way to being great again. Mind you, if they get smashed by 15 goals, all of a sudden it doesn't look like such a great plan.

I have a question on etiquette about which I feel someone here may be able to advise. Just for background, I was raised a good catholic. Mum told me ' Never tell a lie'. Dad told me ' Always speak well of people' All this makes it very difficult to talk about certain people. One thing they both insisted on was courtesy. Fair enough ! Last week when I was in the fruit shop, my access to the bananas was blocked by a woman of a certain age. I looked at her and said as politely as I could ' Excuse me, madam ' She turned on me and gave me this look as if to say ' Madam, you're calling me madam ???? !!!!! ' Then she stomped away in a huff. What the hell should I have said?? What do I say in future??

I have denigrated this thread a couple of times. It took me a while to get the gist of it. I just thought the contributors were a little off the grid and a tad peculiar. I've just arrived in the midst of banana land and thought I'd put in my two penneth's worth. Just a question. Is page 1000 only open to the select few or can any mug have a crack at getting on it. ?? ps Signorellis in Balwyn are unloading ' experienced ' bananas for $ 2 per kilo if you get in quick. ( and they've got some lovely Italians ladies on the till )

Put Lever in it. That guy ooozes leadership. I want him in.

Take him to the hairdresser, get him an orange rinse and stick a 3 after the 1 Problem solved !

And quite right there should be a Melbourne vs Collingwood game round 1 Saturday at the G. Make it a 2.00 pm start to boot. That will get the hairs on the back of the neck standing on end.And a huge win for the deeees.

Can I suggest, though, that it still makes more sense than the NO TS NO BS thread ??? At least this one's not going around and around in circles.

Can we have Mazer Rackham's Master Chef style analysis on some of the biscuits mentioned please ??

On the contrary, if we hold on to Jesse now and repeat the same effort next year, we can easily surpass the No TS no BS thread for posts. Aim high, we can do It !!

Then they'll salivate as well !!!!

Just remind me of your address again Gorgoroth. I will bring a worthy single malt and a small glass.?

There's alotof alliteration going on. How good would some rhetorical questions be right now ?????

Do you mean God botherers ????

I would be livid if JM didn't subject a potential trade to the DL test prior to signing off on it. We would like the chance to express an opinion or veto it.

Let's not entertain the idea of getting Brad Hill somehow. He is a downhill skier of the highest order. If he has the ball and a metre or a metre and a half on an opponent, he'll probably burn them off. If anyone gets closer and puts the acid on him, he'll cough it up

Do our mods run both ways ???? MODS ?????????

I think having Proust on board will be great pick up for the club. A very useful back up for Maxy and quite a decent contributor to French literature ( an area in which the club is sadly falling behind other teams) Bring it on !!

I thought If you played less than 10 games in a season for Casey or more than 10 games for Melbourne, that you would be ineligible for Casey finals. Either option makes Bailey ineligible.

In no universe do we willingly trade Hogan. When he becomes available next season, it opens up a world of dangerous situations no opposition team wants to face. A multi faceted game plan with a host of great options for us to put against any opponent is what we and the club have dreamt about for years. Hogan is a key component in our future.

Just remind me again how many games we've lost when this kid is in the side. I would suggest it's smallish percentage. Keep him in. He is our talisman.

I think it's fairly clear that Olivers falling over ploy was a plan to get the ball to Harmes via 3 Melbourne players because he knew Harmes would kick the goal. Talk about forward planning!!!! Whose mind works like that?? I'll tell you. No otherAFL player at all.

Yes
