4.28pm - Hocking has moved on after three years of great service and having secured another position in the AFL. yada yada.

4.38pm - Melbourne has secured Misson as new fitness coach and Neeld is very happy. yada yada.

Do they think we're stupid?

Why not just be honest and say we sacked a bloke and hired someone new. I am getting so bored with the political spin factor. No drama with the action, just the bulltish we have to read to find it out.

Subtle as a brick Connols. The labour party awaits.

What generation are you living in.

If Hocking has a new job then he has moved on. Whilst we haven't been first class we haven't had MAJOR MAJOR injury problems (see Freo) nor have we appeared massively unfit. Therefor we thank Hocking for his services.

This is called professionalism.

If you want short and snappy get on twitter.

THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda
THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

REPORT: St. Kilda

One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
