Bitter but optimistic

Don't get me wrong guys - I hate the aints..... but.............. if only this shite was happening at .... Carlton!!!

I suspect Kim Duthie was behind this!

Just to prove that I really am a twisted soul here's something to make you banana freaks feel as miserable as I do at this hour of the day. Banana Bread Can Contain Unhealthy Ingredients Unfortunately, many prepackaged banana breads don't contain these nutrient-packed ingredients. They may contain high-fructose corn syrup, white sugar, white flour, hydrogenated oils and even banana flavoring instead of a substantial amount of real banana. Banana bread If you consider that the average muffin or slice of banana bread contains more than 60 grams of total carbohydrate (the equivalent of four slices of bread), 20-30 grams of fat and at least four teaspoons of sugar, it is safe to say that there is nothing healthy about banana bread except the bananas, and it should really just be called banana cake.

Hope they were not all Melbourne games!

I have to say that is the first time that image has been conjured up in my mind during a footy discussion. Fair enough M'Boy. I think I've been a supporter so long that "bitter and despairing reflection" has become automatic.

Touche!

Like your work M'boy but don't you think it is a tad early for a pre-game analysis?

Thank you Doctor but I believe you are getting de cart before the de donkey.

I think we are more your Lort Smith.

I'm with you OD. Blokes our age cannot look too far ahead!

I think Ergo I am.

FMD the optimism has started already. I remember well last season how we were talking about the favourable draw and how 6 wins were likely before.... FMD! Hello fellow groundhogs (WTFTA).

Well guys, I just hope that we are not having a 6 page arse kick in 2016 of one of our 2013 selections. Say a prayer for that Lord!

Thanks Biff. I put the choirboy there for Moon's benefit.

You really are a narrow and unimaginative fellow moon - I'll pray to Lord weaver to provide you with some suitable inspiration or quotations for reflection. BTW this is a a dud thread - Cale is history ( and apart from the injustice alluded to above ) let's move on.

She's one of my strappers.

How about dreams?

Correct. It is dead set unfair that this kid is branded as a squib over a bit of selective editing. He ran to position for the continuation of play. I clearly remember the commentator jokes at the time but they were followed by the appropriate qualifiers. This continued "run away" story is pure nonsense.Edit. Nasher is a faster typist than me.

Thanks Al. I usually pay in one hit so that maybe a factor. I haven't received any paperwork yet so I guess the next few days will tell.

Actually Ben I believe 2014 was the year where Col would have had opportunity to shine. You're right his best pos is high half forward. Unfortunately we expected/ needed him to be a key forward in the past. With the arrival of Hogan, and if our other big forwards are fit, I could picture Col doing serious damage as either a leading forward, a crumbing forward or simply someone who knows how to kick a goal while drawing the fourth defender.I regretted him going for "what might have been". Of course it is, sadly, only speculation Vince isn't a high accumulator and nor is Sylvia.

This is interesting! I rang the club about 3 weeks ago re upgrading my membership ( I am on auto rollover) The young lady I spoke to said I would be contacted on or after 31/10. If our membership is up now it will really spike on 31/10. Or, am I misreading this?

Correct Moon (first time ever). In his All Aus year he managed to hit Moloney regularly. However, all he has done since is hit to his toes. It's quite amazing really because he can do some great body work to get the tap but then, it is simply wasted. Let's move forward with Spencer and Gawn.

Wierdo.

2015! You gotta be kidding!
