Nothing article. I say good luck to the guy - he was a decent player and, I think, a decent person.

GetSwift’s corporate governance perhaps needs to improve, but there doesn’t seem to be any suggestion of impropriety here.

Grimes is a hack. 

Mate I don't think you have a clue.

Grimes is 26 with over 100 games up.  Played 25 games this year.  Flag winner & 5th in the Tigers B&F in a Premiership year.

Plays on  talls or shorts & is the first picked in their defence after Rance.  Tough, smart & determined - coaches love him & supporters love him.

And our list is still full of just potential, and add to that a list that still plays a 21 game season....

Dylan Grimes is a hack....Yeah right.

a $600 million valuation on a "revenue" flow of $500K... now that is what I call a seriously unbalanced P/E ratio.

Ok guys I'm sure that between us we can come up with the next best version of sliced bread and we'll all be in clover :)

This company is doomed.

I was wondering why in his playing days Joel’s nickname was Ponzi. Makes sense now. 

He was always thinking about ways to make money, and would come up with wacky ideas.

Oh please. What rubbish. Grimes would walk into any team in the comp.

BTW I think he was picked up in the rookie draft. I wish we had picked him, but good luck to him. He's not only a very good footballer, but a great bloke.

It never had those contracts, only agreed trials

 this is what caused the global financial crisis, when the value of  A company's share price was more important then how much profit the company was actually making, so once share holders found out that company's were not making profits that related to their share price any pulled out. Most tech companys are over valued, sooner or later unless they turn a profit they all fall over

Yes it was one factor, many Americans who owned their own homes mortgage them to buy, shares, the  global financial crisis was caused by a stock market crash, then many lost their homes, then many American banks went broke because, there was too many houses on the market and not enough buys, now you tell me what caused it then?

The beginning of the GFC was due to a crisis in the subprime mortgage market in the US which developed into an international banking crisis following the collapse of Lehman Brothers.

True it also was due to a stock market crash, because many home owners re mortgage their homes to buy shares, then the market crashed due to over value of listed company's.

No. It just wasn't. Ethan is on the money.

The stock market didn't technically crash. It did fall but well and truly after debt markets blew up. Your simplistic statement that the GFC was caused by share prices not being supported by profits is pure nonsense. Sorry.

Meanwhile, the equivalent discussion on the Collingwood supporters' discussion board is whether Centrelink payments have kept pace with the price of ready to drink Southern Comfort and Coke.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
