Guess I will have to take the blender along as well.

Probably head out to Casey for the game. What's the banana situation like out there?

Thank you. She is quite ap"pealing".

Selling.

Beats mine, sitting at dusty, hot, horse sales

Bit hard when 2 out of 3 weeks we are not on TV in the NAB Cup, yet the power clubs are on every week.

My meal replacement shake tonight was, yes you guessed it, banana flavoured. Actually it was ordinary.

Boys obviously got into the bananas on the flight over and thrashed Port by 2 points. With 21 players out compared to Port's 15 out that has to be encouraging, especially as played in the heat at Renmark. I would imagine the Dees team next week at Casey, will be completely different.

Looks like the GWS have signed up at least half their list to extended contracts. Don't think the other clubs are going to be able to raid them as easily as they thought.

I don't know any one else that didn't see the need to make wholesale changes.

Earl Spalding.

I don't think we would be too happy if they both star and we got SFA for them. As a free agent Beamer was rated as crap by the AFL given our compo.

Brisbane reporter on SEN was really talking Beamer and Stef up this morning. Hope they don't embarrass us.

Anyone going to Renmark?

Ah yes of course.

What's that?

There is luck in footy no doubt. Blues fall over the line against GWS who were killing them and then play an uninterested Swans side. They tank to buggery and don't get investigated. They have no injuries from the weekend or before that. Judd gets half of his Visy money in injury payments and gets his whole 3rd party payment and we are told no 3rd party payment to try and keep the number 1 draft pick of the year before. They have a supporter who helps them get 360 pokie machines to set themselves up again. Yeah there is luck in footy alright.

If they were on bananas they would be good players.

As usual the injuries start to mount, before we have even started. Blease is the latest.

Most critical thing IMO is disposal improvement. We are very poor in this area and unless we improve, the rest won't matter. The next issue is our gameplan in so far as it relates to creating the loose man and forward setup.

I smell a piece of banana bread with that coffee BB.

I think he got offside with the Coach early on and that was it for his year.

Anyone notice who was the Lions best player in both games and kicked a supergoal to boot?

I tried but they were out of bananas. Not the first time it has happened either. I had a pineapple and lemon crush instead. Quite good too.

Did anyone notice in the last 2 minutes of the North game, 20 metres out, right in front of umpire 15 Nicholls, who must have paid 10 frees to North and 1 to us, Sylvia slung to the ground without the ball by Majak Daw. Obvious free and a goal wins it for us. Glad it is only the NAB Cup. PS. I really feel that Dwayne Russell dislikes us as a club. Snide comments and failing to put things in a balanced way are noticable.
