But will a GWS member be welcome bb?

Is there such a thing?

It is now a long time ago but what is wrong with the last venue. Date?

The Thai place. Reputation for being on the cheap side so if we want to attract classy people to the feast like BBO, Biffen and your good self OD, we have to take that step up and provide a classier venue.

Now that the Gat's been sold and all but forgotten, I don't suppose it's once sumptuous dining facilities are available?

I get the feeling someone might be wavering DF!

Me? I am feeling good about 2018.

So much so, I am thinking of watching my second AFL match at the MCG.

It is Red that we all should be concerned about. NO PROPER COUNTDOWN! What is this DL coming to?

I detect a theme here Mr Jack. The better our results the better the venue gets. So will  the  2018 get together be at the Flower Drum?

Be careful in what you wish for Jack.

While I am certainly of genteel ilk and OD is probably acceptable (despite seeming to prefer Pinot to Shiraz) Biffen is another matter. 

Biffen would consider munching a Big Mac while sitting on the dunny as "classy" eating.

Ignore BBO please WJ,

He prefers to eat from a trough so i doubt he can advise on matters cultural.

If it is Thai food we decide upon BBO will be offering money to the waitresses during the meal.

We will need to explain to him that you cannot pay a "bar fine" in Australia that allows a customer to grope the girls.

Also-a sophisticate like myself would never drink a heavy red with a delicate style of food.

Pinot and Reisling if we are dining in a Siamese restaurant.

 

How good is Danger? He made Buddy look like a waste of space. His aggression at the contest and his speed make him nearly unstoppable. He is a match winner.

We don't have one.

Spot on Mr. Leg and until we get one the cup is safely in someone else's hands.

Disagree thoroughly, OD. Dangerfield was good, no doubt about that, but the evenness and consistency of the rest of the Geelong team was the key. Buddy is a champion, but couldn't hit the side of a barn last night. All players have such days, but the Swans had no one else who stepped up. For me, it was a classic case of a champion team vs a team of champions. We don't need another Tilbrook; we just need 22 players like Jack Viney.

The establishments that Biffen frequents don't have dunny lids bb.

We need players with more talent than Viney. 22 just hard at its with moderate skills will not win a flag R and B

It is all about 2018.

Have Faith!

As my memories of being at the last finals game that the MFC played fades, I do recall a few things. 

1) singing the Club song as our team ran on to the ground.

2) my dislike of anything Fremantle.

3) my desire to win a flag.

4) our need for a better team.

5) my dislike of losing (especially to Freo).

It is hard to believe that was in 2006.

Faith has not got us a flag for more than half a century DF.

I am all out of faith.

A list of good players plus a few stars  all pulling in the right direction has a good chance.

True if you are talking about Grand Final wins.

But th last finals game, I was there with the other 1,999 MFC supporters. It was a sad night at Subiaco Oval.
