According to my wife, the Redlegs' ship arrives in Valencia, Spain later today. No bananas but plenty of oranges in Valencia which sadly, could trigger off some painful thoughts in Redleg's head given the connection between the colour and the team that Voldemort plays for these days.

OD. I think in the interests of Redleg's health, it's fortunate that he's sailing off the coast of France, heading in the direction of Spain and oblivious to today's developments. I reckon he might be saying that the game as we all knew it died today. I found it distasteful when that nameless person jerked the club around in 2011 knowing he was going to GWS but I found the news that Buddy's management approached the Swans soon after last year's grand final rather appalling. I'm sure Redleg would feel the same way. I suppose we have to get used to it but I thought free agency was designed to help battlers get to other AFL clubs. I'm not so sure that's happening the way the Player's Association envisaged things when it was first mooted.

Latest report from Mrs. Redleg is that the cruise continues and the ship has docked at a port in the south of France after initially crossing into Italian waters. There's apparently a storm on the way and I suspect that Redleg himself might be a little seasick. Take this with a grain of salt if you wish but I tracked their course on a map of the Mediterranean and discovered that its shape perfectly matches that of a banana.

Just heard from Mrs. Redleg. She and Mr. Redleg have successfully traversed the globe and landed in Nice where they start a cruise tomorrow. She reports that Redleg has scoured the local markets and will proudly carry a crate of bananas onto the ship. She also reveals that his shipboard reading is the Paul Roos biography which he has read 3 times since our new coach was appointed. Thought you might want to know.

It's a mad, mad, mad world gone bananas when I read news stories suggesting that Neil Craig is about to be appointed coach of Brisbane and Dean Bailey a strong possibility for the gig at Essendon (lips please don't unpurse). It wouldn't surprise me if Mark Neeld bobbed up somewhere too (Carlton as assistant to Mick).

It was all our fault. We should have known that picks 1 and 3 that year were ratbags and refused to "list manage" that year. We should have played guys in 2009 who had broken legs, sprained thumbs or were under suspension for striking. How bloody incompetent can you be when you let Richmond beat you with a 55m kick after the siren from a hack who otherwise couldn't hit a barn door in a storm? And next time we win a flag, we should all leave the ground looking ashen faced.

Thanks for that CFH. It means one more win and they've already matched the Demons' season.

I missed everything about the opening round with the exception of the first game last week. What happened to San Franciso?

Like to enter the tipping competition but haven't the slightest clue about the teams other than that San Fran will win the Superbowl. Bring it on. BTW Does anyone know who Paul Roos supports?
