Oh good lord, I've just found a youtube clip of BBO teaching in class. Can't be sure, but I believe Biff uploaded it. Don't think he knows he was being filmed. He's certainly an old school disciplinarian...

No, that's not me, but his teaching style is based on my approach. His language is far more welcoming and inclusive than mine. Top post Moonie, I enjoyed watching a fellow professional.

Hope you washed your hands before typing on the keyboard. Actually, that applies to BBO as well.

On a cruise ship just passed Gallipoli and Anzac Cove, very emotional moment.

Go dees against the dogs, good to see Viney playing. How is that other bloke still in the side, just stunned. Some of our younger blokes will be getting very [censored] off with that.

Passed the same spot last year without the same emotions perhaps because it's a part of world history that I studied and from which I learned you don't trust politicians and leaders of armies (although you have to feel for the kids on both sides whose lives and limb were lost for nothing at all).

You've done better than your brother-in-law and sister-in-law who sailed past Gallipoli sitting facing the shore and had to be told later that they hadn't even noticed the place.

I see a Mr. C. Schwab has applied for the AFL Players association CEO position.

That would be interesting.

I would have thought that the chances of him getting another AFL gig were very low.

Just might prove he has more lives than your average cat.

Maple, This thread is inhabited by some very strange types who have nothing better to do than post on this thread. Beware! If in doubt, put yourself in Uncle Bitter's hands.

Some of the posts in this thread are rather strange and confusing. And yet, I can't seem to look away.

I have visited the Gallipoli site a few years ago.

A number of people were very emotional there and it was sad to read the stories from both sides of the conflict.

It was interest to see how the Turks regarded the site and i did have a chat to a few Turkish soldiers there.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
