Yes DD..we know you don't care. I have no doubt you'll post to this effect a 100 times more in any number of threads. Some however do. Those that undestand this appreciate the nuances. They'll appreciate we have always referenced the Red and Blue even should we have gowned up in prissy white or disco silver. I for one prefer even this rendition. It still screams MELBOURNE. I like that. Those that dont care, id actually wonder what elements about anything are sacrosanct ? Whilst it's about winning its about winning as MELBOURNE and recognisably so. Thats how a culture is built....not as non descripts. The poll should have an option. ' im ok with it , its better than none red and blue' Go Dees

You know it's the holidays when even mods are posting fakenews

Somehow I think we better get used to it...Am sure the AwFuL will want us wearing it at every opportunity as summary penance for being so maverick !! At least the song will still make sense now...and we'll be hearing it ALL the time ...surely !!

funny...such a concept would never have occurred to any of us eh

The new clash jumper is NOT Royal Blue. Our regular jumper is Navy with Red Robbie's regular WAS Royal Blue This incarnation is well...just blue...a sort of capri blue Its better than white and once and for all puts to bed the lie that is the AFL's bullshlt.

Possibly.... certainly full of it !!

The afore mentioned frog !

After my recent foray of misadventure vis a vis Mango Daiquiris... it's back on the wagon with a Banana Milkshake Wife backed up with Banana toast !

?pressure's on Got to deliver now.

Whats the count so far red ?

I hope the soggy marshes of Romsey aren't too inundated with water. Im not sure our ol uncle Bitters can cope with....water

Well...f'd if i could find him (nemo ) Swam around...had no luck. He's out there somewhere !!

Mea culpa....they were Mango The seafaring lot were having a happy hour special for we landlubbers. Alas no Banana choice !! I know...and in Qld !! I must confess ...ive also had drinks comprising pineapple, coconut and sugar cane derivatives !!! ....and i did a little walking in the rain. Hopefully there's a bit of something bananarish on offer on our way to finding Nemo !!

I had a Banana Chai smoothie yesterday with brunch. All is well, thanks for the concern Stay dry (ish) down there

Oddly enough Ernest there were some of those "English Tourists" Not that i particularly care much for the game these days but i enquired as to their interest in cricket. That seemed to to the job. Crocs are indeed a serious thing up here and i take good care not to smile at them. Must be time for my morning juice

Yes...feeling refreshed now. Heading out on the yacht soon. Seafood buffer to boot. Gotta take it whilst there Bit warm for Reds...BBO wouldn't like this I'm sure ...

Have moved on. Lunch time Such is life...

Is a bit earlier than you suggest....but I'm coping

@hemingway Just for you Ernest. Am at your namesakes in P.D. In honour of all we 'inbibers' Cheers

The dining companionship is beyond compare

I really have nothing to contribute to the countdown ....

Im sure ill wander along , buy a snag, sink a tinnie or two. VB won't be a permanent residence. More a holiday destination for us, our family and friends etc. Probably let out fron time to time. I can assure you we paid far less than 130...even less than asking Had originally thought about Inverloch but left our race too late there. Both wife and I had holidayed at VB in younger times and now we just like it as it away from ALL the ratrace. Not a lot in good ol VB. At least theres a Bar

Wallace = w@nkfest Why do ppl put up threads and pontificate about such. Doesn't anyone learn ffs Pre season equals anyone's guess Ppl disect and get all jiggy !! Laughable. Maybe 5 games inro REAL season some sort of picture presents !!

Fmd ..Wallace...are we none the wiser. Must be Schoolies Move along...

EH I'm not venturing far from either a pool...or a chilled drink. As an affecianado of things ferroquinaleous the Kuranda jaunt attracts otherwise....pool....drink !!!
