Don't think we are chasing any big bananas, only a couple of grapes.

I might watch some ice melt tomorrow.

3 more days of trading left. Like watching paint dry.

I am sure you can find them on You Tube.

You guys need to relax and listen to my favourite girl group, Bananarama.

We would have to dub her voice as it is an incomprehensible screech.

Next you will suggest we get Brynne Edelsten to do the ads for Sugardaddy.com in her banana colored ferrari.

I am working on a banana flavoured multi vitamin tablet. Should make me millions. BTW I actually had a banana smoothie yesterday and it was a beauty. Bought at "The Spot", Balaclava Road Caulfield, near the Hawthron Road junction.

Expect this week to be more exciting than the last couple. Should be a lot of players changing clubs. This draft, especially after the first 25 picks or so, doesn't appear to be as wanted by the clubs as many thought.

Club has asked me not to mention Dale Roberts again. So I won't. Oh I just did. Well not again. He is being hidden.

Now we move on to the last 6 days of trade time.

Port given two priority picks just when AFL said no more. Clearly their two picks are not compo.

Sad to see Riv go. He was a loyal Dee and a good player for us. Wish him the best.

Dale has been earmarked by the club for our last rookie spot as they have kept him under wraps and believe no one else knows about him. He will then be uplifted on the first long term injury. We have arranged a job for him at a wholesale fruiterer in the banana department. Things are looking good.

I need a drink to celebrate. Here goes another banana smoothie.

Heading out for dinner tonight with WJ. Should be able to spend 5 seconds discussing all the trades in the last few days.

Ray's Manager says he expects him to stay with Saints. That might mean 1 less player we need to get rid of. Gysberts may be kept if no great offer.

Well that means Caulfield Cup day is going to be a busy football day then.

I wonder if we are only going to try and upgrade our remaining picks, after the Dawes, Ray and Pedersen deals are completed?

Back from 2 days in Healesville. Very relaxed and ready to conclude the Dawes, Ray and Pedersen deals.

We are trying to get so many players, that if we succeed, we will not be able to have any draft picks, unless we delist about 20 players. My calculation was that if we get 4 more players and upgrade NIcho and Evans we need to move on at least 11 more to have 4 ND picks and 1 PSD pick. That is a big changeover.

I am surprised we have not heard of any enquiries about Petterd.

Have you mentioned that to Cale?

I'd answer you, but they take away my computer at night.

We might get one or two in the next few days.
