We haven't done religion here so how about some Psalm 49:- Loses a little from the original but it sums up the final result nicely.

No banana daiquiris, no banana smoothies and no banana ice cream. Settled for strawberry ice cream. Some interesting lyrics from the band - had they tried to sing that stuff on Demonland, they would have been facing a six month ban!

IIRC, we were still an outside chance of making the finals with about three rounds to go but since the meaning of the word "tanking" is constantly being transformed, widened, embellished, twisted and contorted, I guess you're 100% right. I remember the game against Hawthorn in Round 20 when Aaron Davey went down with a foot injury and we lost by only 21 points despite being murdered by the umpires. Yep, we tanked that so we couldn't make finals.

Reminiscent of Caro Wilson's amazing revelations on tanking that had to have certain dates amended after publication for correctness. She even had us "tanking" in 2010.

Aaargh ... I haven't had this feeling since 2000.

That's rubbish. I eat a banana a day (not too ripe) and it hasn't caused me any problems. You need a balanced diet and exercise and all will be well in the world. On the other hand, if you want to get a job at GWS in recruiting ...

We've been told that the club's approach to Clark's rehab is conservative and Mitch himself keeps tweeting that he's on track with his progress. While he was walking laps on Monday, he was also kicking the football as well (albeit with his left foot only) and there's been no evidence of any setback to his recovery routine. I don't think he's been put on the LTI like Max Gawn so can only assume there must be some chance that by mid March, he might be taking part in some light match practice.

No, it's not.This highly informative article by the maestro, Mr. Jon Pierik Yadda Yadda Yadda says it could drag on until March.

Got this off twitter: Broccoli: "I look like a tree." Walnut: "I look like a brain. " Mushroom: "I look like an umbrella." Banana: "Dude! Change the topic."

I found this blog story on the Net - Ostler: Kaepernick not 1st to feed media beasts Just need to work out what it's all about and why it means the 49ers‘ are going to win the big one next week.

Footballer avoids Vietnam War by visiting Hanoi 39 years after Allies pull out.

Well, in the end, I didn't need to start a fight with those young GCS punks to create a distraction from the tanking rubbish. One of them was able to do it all by himself - Young Gold Coast forward Jacob Gillbee charged with drink driving. Blew half of what Liam did over in Adelaide which shows that these Gold Coast lads still have a fair way to go . Incidentally, spare a thought for Redleg who decided to stay on the Gold Coast for a few more days to enjoy the brilliant sunshine up there. I left on Thursday and the sun was shining but it hasn't stopped p1zzing down ever since. I think it might even be too wet for him to post on the site.

And my growing disenchantment with the game is not being helped by the scheduling of T20 on Australia Day. Once upon a time that day was reserved for the Adelaide Test, then it was used for ODI's and now this ... If they ever do that to footy, it'll be all over as far as I'm concerned.

Weekend. I'm resting my case.

{6} for differentiation. I am innocent and I will never reveal my sources.

{7} for differentiation. I am innocent of all proposed charges because they don't exist as offences.

I'm with you there 100% Biff. Those wimps want to fix me up because I mentioned somebody's old man and were horrified at the thought of me starting a fight with Bluey McKenna and a few of his rookies. Soft and old the lot of them!!!

I told RL it was the perfect opportunity for us to start a fight which would help get the Dees out of the headlines for a couple of days but he chickened out because off the odds. I was ready to take them on.

I'll take it to the Southport Magistrates Court if they even think of trying.

It's good to see that there's a four day domestic game happening at last. The disappearance of these games in favour of T20 etc. is not helpful when you're preparing for an Ashes series. Let's hope its a good game and the Vics do well.

I've checked the Demonland rules for this thread and, in particular, our Rule 19 (A5) and I see no breach of the rule whatsoever. I maintain that on the contrary, by providing a legitimate quiz to exercise people's brains (something not normally required on this thread), I have actually performed a vital public service. I even attracted a well-respected Demonland poster in Fan back here after an absence of more than 14 months and therefore, there is no way anyone can claim that I've brought the thread into disrepute. As for draft tampering - pffffft!

Let's see if I can help out on the identification front without offending against the rules of this thread.Who am I ......... (1st Clue) My son was just appointed vice-captain of the GWS Giants. I am .....? Who am I ......... (2nd Clue) My pay is included in the GWS salary cap I am .....? Who am I ......... (3rd Clue) My weight is greater than more than any five other players at the club combined I am .....? Who am I ......... (4th Clue) Based on my age and football experience, I have just been appointed captain of the GWS Giants I am .....?

Yes ... I've been waiting a long time for this - what a comeback!

Nominations now being taken for roles in the Hollywood production. I nominate myself as myself and Halle Berry as my wife. I'll be doing my own stunts for every scene.
