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.

The Eric Bogle song 'And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda' said it best, IMHO

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.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
