Spaghetti

Looking forward to hearing about the quality. I have heard mixed reports about Pistol Clothing in the past.

Definitely not alone, I too have a strange affection for Officeworks. Something about mass stationary must agree with the human DNA.

I'm fairly sure this has been discussed in the past and it was said this figure is often inflated because it includes people not renewing in the appropriate way or some who change packages.

No problems for me using Firefox 3.6

As said above, do not contact Nike. They will invariably say you will be in breach of copyright and that you should cease all further action on the matter. Large companies protect their interests by scaring less resourced people and companies with infinite legal jargon with the knowledge you will not understand it and to give the impression that it will be very costly to get legal advice or to risk litigation. I'm no expert on the matter. But parody apparel such as this is everywhere and nothing will come of it (if it is in fact a breach).

If I can get hold of my grandfather's scrapbook, I may have some photos from the 40s.

Good luck Sheeds. Would be a slight conflict of interest, being James is now on the MRP.

I hate Collingwood like the rest of you, but the ad is pretty good. If it was a Melbourne ad, I'd love it.

Disagree. Obviously not perfect picture, but I find it easy to watch games on the afl site (if the video loads).

I'm a firm believer in where there's smoke, there's fire. I will be content only when Scully re-signs.

I like the non-animated ones better

Hate to be the pessimist, but stores will order stock relative to how many they expect to sell. I know some retailers (Kmart) did not even order MFC clothing this year, only the big Melbourne clubs.

Big NO to plastic pockets on a scarf from me. Would make it look extremely tacky and would warp/tear quickly with use and exposure to sun.

I don't see an issue with suggesting that Jack deserves some more pocket money...

Yeah, I thought he did reasonably well in his games this year.

Problem is, it will be very difficult for us to build income-earning assets without going back into debt. There is nothing wrong with that in business, but not sure if it would be an easy message to sell to members/media.

So my presumption was accurate. Your opinion was based off journalists. I'm struggling to find anything in your response that comes close to responding to my criticism. My issue was with your explicit assertion that Atley was the better rated draftee. You have now confirmed that this assertion is based on journalists. I stand by my initial comments. The only "simple fact" that is relevant is that Atley was not rated higher by the people that matter. Recruiters may tailor picks to their needs, but that is just another factor in their ratings.

As has already been said. You are the one missing the point. I presume you are basin this 'rating' off BF phantoms and journalists... Fact is, they know very little other than some inside tips on who may go where or who speaks to who, but they would never know where recruiters rate players. Always found the term 'slider' stupid for this very reason. They only slide when compared to BF hype. But at the end of the day they are drafted exactly where recruiters rate them. If Atley (to take your example) was so highly rated, he would have been taken earlier. But he wasn't. I feel many people latched onto his Judd comparisons too literally.

I'm loving all the "we took X way too early! Should have taken [overhyped BigFooty player] here!". Seriously, I'd be very surprised if more than a few of you have ever watched these kids. I will trust our recruiters over any phantom on BF anyday. Let's not forget where BF rated James Frawley back in his day. At the end of the day, these kid are nothing but names and highlight packages to most of us.

I actually gave up my MCC after being signed up on birth, and gaining membership at 16-17. Found myself liking it only because it was exclusive. Wasn't getting value for money.

I hope that was a joke.

Having met Matthew, this is truly terrible news. He was a very funny, passionate and genuine man. My condolences to Austin and all Tiwi Islanders.

That a Primus logo I see on Davey's jumper?

Getting into the real small stuff now, but Green's head... It looks like it has been chopped off or something. Looks almost pointy.

... or a light breeze. But as for Newton and Morton, both need some trimming at the moment, but if anything thats a positive. Both have been in need of extra kilos for years. More than likely they have been advised to load up on protein ready to be converted into muscle over preseason.
