    I've always said the captain was.
    Now it's been confirmed.

    Big deal. His tenure as captain is over anyway.

    You need help.

    SWYL you are one of the few that on a good day you really do post some insightful things and I do enjoy some of your quality work. But this isn't a good day for you mate.

    Am I the only one that finds this uncomfortable when a complete stranger posts a photo of a bloke with his wife and 2 kids on a family holiday up on an online forum?

    Would hope mods step in and take this down.

    Unfortunately this is the world we live in now dazzle. 

    Nothing is private anymore.

    I have never ever been skiing in Australia. Spent 2 months in Canada and loved it but that was 20 years ago. Do I hand in my membership?

    Jones is in New Zealand.

    Thanks skipper.

     

    Looks like quite a place. Must go there some day. Maybe to celebrate a flag or something.

     

     

    Queenstown is definitely somewhere to visit. Place is built on Adrenalin; all set among breathtaking scenery.

    I haven't skied Cardrona...but have Coronet and the Remarkables. You can get some very good packages to ski there. I first did bungy during a ski season...probably not the most same thing I've ever done...the water..'freezing"

    Takes a little while to get used to skiing among NO trees !!  ...but hey....less to hit ...lol

    Go there...highly recommend.

    yes they most certainly do....and invariably the GF is shown

    The first time I went to NZ was to QT was 1990  I went partially to enjoy the Skiing..but as much to escape Melbourne in the throng of Filth Fever going into the GF. There was this obnoxious family every day on the ski bus, the type of Aussie tourists that make you blush or cringe. By the end of the week they will have made most peoples 'kill list'  Sunday must have been their last day. I still had another week  and Im sure I speak on behalf of the bus we couldnt wait for them to go. As we traveled towards the Remarkables that Sunday morning he ( [censored]#1) was bemoaning he didn't know the GF score. We all knew he was a Filthy Maggie as he wore his black and white scarf and beanie every bloody day.  No-one answered. Either most didnt know, didn't care or just didnt want to make this lot any worse than they already were..  So I did.  I told him Essendon had won  by a goal after the siren.  Wiped the smile right off his face and we didnt hear another peep out of them for the rest of the day. He was heading home the next day so for at least 24hours or until he happened upon the REAL score he was utterly miserable. I enjoyed the rest of my holiday ;)

    Hilarious. ..the epitome  of the Melbourne  stereotype..

    Rather be at the snow...and in September. ...says it all.

    Who says Jones would rather be at the snow than playing in a final?

    Jesus mate he is on a holiday with his wife and 2 kids..

    At least let the bloke live his life a little.

    WYL doesn't think rationally.

    He'll want him lighting candles every night and praying to the ghost of Norm Smith to lift the curse for us because curses exist and they matter to current players just like they matter to old blokes who can't let go.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
