Red and Bluebeard

I feel your pain, Bbsy. I have only one Demon loyalist left out of 4, and even he gave up on going to games after the Essendon game this year. You can lead a horse to footy, or something ...

We all feel your pain, OD, but I don't share the sentiment about disappearing. We all want improvement, and it is long overdue. Who knows about winning games, but I like to think that if we can put Hogan, Dawes and Clark all on the park in round 1, hopefully at the MCG, then I will certainly be sitting near where the old race was and cheering the boys on ...

And no more red and blue? Pity that ... For that matter, I don't think I have ever met a 'nice demon', let alone one that insisted on being called "Mr"

Just hand around, observe, take part when it feels right etc. That is probably quicker than picking up all the nuances (such as when to mention bananas, when not to and how alpacas fit into the scheme of things ... ) Occasionally there is footy talk too!

Smiley poker? What will they think of next? :lol

Are you suggesting an injection of amino acids? Intravenous bananas might be more popular ​

Hope all goes well. No doubt you will have a great time.

Agreed that that should be the outcome, Redleg, but I fear that assumes consistency from the AFL. Pain in the sitting bone, but time to move on,. Speaking of which, when are you off to the wedding? Must be soon ....

Lol! Especially in BBO's version of things ...

I hesitate to ask whether you live on an alpaca station then ...

So, BB59sy, what is a sheep station?

You are walking along a thin line, TBF ...

What is the sound of one thread clapping? How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand? Not to in too much Yoda-speak indulge, no

Anything about "copping flack"

I am with OD on this one. One part of me doesn't really care, and thinks that a case could be made why each of the three who will miss out "deserve it". Another part of me (the loyal Victorian) is always happy to see Sydney or Fremantle lose rather than Geelong or Hawthorn. A win for the latter will make my father-in-law happy, but as unpopular as it may be on here, I think I actually want Geelong to win. But if they don't, I am sure I will find a reason to be happy about it ...

Yes, make sure your avatar always beats true for the red and the blue :-)

Nice one, BB59sy ... :-)

My four all walk in two legs, but also seem to be obsessed with food ... I have never thought to Google my beard, but thanks for the idea! :-) As for red and blue beards, I had to make my own :-)

Now you are sounding like my kids, TBF ... The beard is fixed to the chin, and there it is staying! (not even for two bananas)

Lol!

I don't see the problem, Old Deesy ... And is Ballsy a player we should trade for?

I get you, OD, but I think the crux of the argument is deserve vs. need. Perhaps we don't deserve one (how would you do that?), but we need one, and we have the AFL Commission to make judgements like this rather than the 17 other clubs. Put another way, if we don't get a PP now, nothing short of a terrorist attack on our training base will get us one.

You have my backing, Redleg --- not that it will help you much ...

Sorry OD --- that completely went through to the keeper for me ... FWIW if you can find them on DVD, perhaps your grand-daughter may be interested.

Wacky cartoon show from the late 60's or early 70's. I can still hear the jingle in my head. Perhaps you were too old for cartoons when they were on, OD? Tra-la-la, la-la-la-la, tra-la-la, la-la-la-la-lah .... .Tra-la-la etc.(ok, so they weren't renowned for their lyrics ... )
