I'd like to see Goody reprise that pre season catch up with Mike Sheehan down at the Sorrento Hotel but with the premiership cup on the table this time. 

Maybe because it's pre-season, maybe because it's a highly controlled environment, maybe because he's had a huge weight taken off his shoulders. Goody seems very relaxed, and more assured with his speaking.

Yep, a premiership will do that for you.

And there's no question; it's Two Twenty-two, not Twenty Twenty-two.

Still, a premiership in either will be just fine...


I'm not sure if any post could make this thread veer further off-course Timothy, but just imagine if Archbishop Desmond Tutu had passed away at 2.22 on Tuesday 22.2.22.

Veer? That was too good for it not to, Mr Stone, to be sure. Brilliantly unearthed, too.

Richie Benaud sends his best from the other side.

1, 1 was a race horse

2, 2 was 1, 2

1, 1  1, 1 race and 2, 2 1 1 2.

They do seem like very vigorous training drills in that video.

...so, my son has pointed out, he went 2 soon...

 

He saw himself out...

Surely time to reread Heller 

 


Is this just a repeat of the first post, with a different photo?

Almost the same, but this time he's trolling the pedants by saying "hone in" instead of the correct "home in".

Maybe he's getting them sharp.

 

I thought Goody wouldn't be around in 22. I'm a fickle fan but I'm glad he is still coach.

Gone from his job on the line to the club's most successful coach in close to six decades.

You got me thinking, Mr Stone; I realise I've been in the camp  muariesy's quip identifies. So, online I went, and Merriam-Webster there has detailed etymological discussion approving both for the purpose of saying (to use M-W's suggested confusion-avoiding alternative) 'zero in' on something.

Regardless, I'm expecting Goody's next update to refer to zero injuries or other issues, with skills and fitness being further honed, and all directed towards a home premiership.

Pffft!   Miriam Webster?   How many games did she play?

Can't wait for the hone and away season to start. :D

Isn’t it strange how a lot of coaches have been on the chopping block then gone on to win the premiership. You look at Hardwick, Clarkson, Thompson. Their fans wanted them gone, their boards stuck with them and they all had dynasties. 
Hopefully we’re at the beginning of ours.

Yes, I did! Hitherto the only Miriam Webster I knew of was the dictionary.

except it's merriam-webster not miram, but close enough for a cigar (but not a premiership cigar)

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
