Imagine the personality traits that would lead a person to be a police officer, politician, real estate agent and an AFL player agent...

    Interesting character.  According to his Wikipedia page:

    - He was stood down as a police officer after failing an integrity investigation

    - He had a sketchy career in politics, including squibbing out of a debate on industrial affairs and got Hockey to debate on his behalf

    - He was forced to withdraw from contesting in the 2010 federal election after he was charged with impersonating a police office

    - The incident of impersonating a police officer came from when he threatened a witness in an assault case against his son - the phone call was made from Parliament House when he was a sitting MP

    I reckon he would have also moon lighted as a Justice of the Peace, a Marriage Celebrant and ran bus tours.

    Loved watching Byron Pickett play - whether for Port, NM, or us. Just great to watch.

     

    And I thought Lachie Hunter’s bump against Collingwood was straight out of the Byron Pickett textbook.

    And Eddie McChins was complaining like a stuck pig about the bump on FC and even tried to turn it around by claiming the Collingwood player desisted from turning it around on Lachie Hunter.

    Byron - the “gutless n!gger” as some bloke called him at the Gabba - Back in 2006. I couldn’t get him thrown out of the QCC members and was fuming. My mate explained "we are in Qld - get used to it.".

    His mates had to restrain me from taking it further (not physically) and apologised on his drunken behalf. I spoke with several QCC staff - they did nothing. Unforgettable!

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.
