Here's the MFC media release, for ease of reference: https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/1237034/corrigan-departs-for-cats

Anyone have particularly strong opinions about his desire to be closer to his family and friends??

Should we contrast that vs a 20yo?

Appreciate the work Mark has done at Casey, all the best!

Want something of value and insider knowledge back from those people.

I love your avatar. 

Thanks, @old dee!  Made it myself 😉

I am surprised that Goody didn’t snaffle him for our senior FD obviously knows his stuff. Cats should be renamed the Poachers, I suppose it is a backhanded compliment but hell they don’t muck around. Could set us back a bit at Casey.!!!

Seriously whipped by his family… Just like Dogga.

Surprised DL ‘res are not going harder. 

 

😂

Mark Stinear for the job?? Or is that robbing Peter to pay Paul?

This go home factor is getting out of control, should only recruit anyone from Melbourne within 5k radius.

To be fair on a bad day on the Monash it’s a 14 hour drive from Casey to Geelong.

Flying Jetstar from the MGG to the airport onto Perth, Uber’ing to Cottesloe is only 13 hours (if Dogga goes thru security and Jetstar don’t cancel the fight) 

This lure to/back to western Victoria is outrageous.

I just got back from a work overnighter down to Portland and let me tell you, the roads are the worst in the state…and don’t get me started on the attitude of the staff at one of the bakeries.

In saying that, one of the best chicken and salad bread rolls I’ve had from memory.

The road b/w Port Fairy and Portland is bollocks.

@Demonstone, got a vibe on where @Beetlegot the roll from?

It must have been a chook from Hawkins farm. But… he is a dairy farmer. Sure it was chicken???

Woman who served me had eyes that were set extremely close together, so every chance it was a relation of Tomahawk.

That would be robbing Peta to pay Paul.

There's only three bakeries in town but the best salad rolls (and banh mi) may be obtained from the Portland French Bakery which is counter intuitively run by a Vietnamese couple. 

It's in Percy Street right next to where a certain large sports store used to trade.

It wasn’t The Bakehouse @Demonstone.

Perhaps I was being generous with the “bakery” call…more a cafe. This was just down from the SportsPower.

Either way, I walked away after consuming the roll feeling 5 years younger.

(Sorry to derail the thread).
