That's ok, we must maintain standards.

Is there a need for those black and white colors a couple of posts ago, on such a refined thread?

Has it. Well I will take it one week at a time, in future with my quotes.

Apparently a couple of clubs have inquired about him.

The departing player list is growing and reference is made to many clubs being interested in the players. We will see what we get in return, if anything.

Thanks will give it a try. May come out of retirement, as we will have plenty of spots on the list to fill.

Problem would be that CAC wouldn't listen to him. "What, you want Buddy, Cyril, Pendles and Swan, no way".

Guess what I had on my toast this morning. I think we all need a good news story for the club as soon as possible. Even the rumour of a good player wanting to come to us would help the mood.

Now Jurrah. 2012 has been such a great year for the MFC. No wonder I talk crap about bananas.

I have also been following him and remain underwhelmed.

Home today. I started my fitness/diet today and I am going to strip fitter next season, just like I hope our boys do. Just went for a long walk and now for a healthy lunch. Bought a packet of Blackmores Chocolate/Blackcurrent diet shakes and tried one this morning. Nearly spat it out, possibly the worst drink I have ever had. Don't buy it if you are thinking of it, or see it in the chemists. Should have stuck to banana flavour.

Any good news yet?

Agree. It is what will give us hope and keep going.

You were right. Hope we don't stuff up trading/drafting.

You can wash down your banana fritter with that.

Yep, we are in drafting/trading mode in a few hours.

Just watched an interview on Dee TV with Jordie McKenzie hosted by his sister Ellie. While Jordie isn't the best looking rooster in the barn, Ellie is quite cute with a very good personality. You would not pick her as Jordie's sister. Before I am attacked, Jordie is one of my favourite Dees and we always have a chat when I get to training.

There is a fair bit of vitriol and angst on another thread that has now been locked. I was going to suggest they have a banana split, chill out and enjoy life, like we do on this thread.

Do we both love Thalia Menenger?

It was a hilarious gag in the show, when the beatnik odd ball posed the question and of course no one knew the answer. The expression on the faces of the cast when he gave the answer was priceless.

Walter.

Sad news. RIP. Great show. For the trivia buffs, do you know what the G stood for in Maynard G. Krebs, the beatnik played by Bob "Gilligan" Denver in "the Many Loves of Dobie Gillis."

Well I would hope that with 3 and 4 we might get a Toumpas and an U17 and I am pretty sure they should be ok.

I think you can guarantee that young JV will be a good player.

How disappointing is it, that I am looking forward to the trading and drafting, more than I looked forward to about the last 80% of this season?
