  1. My votes for best meat pie experience 3. Holbrook Bakery 2. Heritage Bakehouse Milton 1. Grays Bakehouse Kerang. Pie of choice around Melbourne is Routleys.
  2. My son wore his Air Jurrah shirt for 3 days in Disneyland California Christmas time in 2011. Created some discussion with fellow Aussies while I was having a beer at EPSN downtown Disney.
  3. Hi Faulty, Hope you've been good Travel around with work a lot so don't have a lot of time to post. Do read a lot. Its a lot better going to the games these days. Rocky wanted the spot at Melbourne but not to be. He may be on the move at the end of the year. Hope Ding is good.
  4. We were set to take Rockcliff with pick 1 in the pre season draft. Jurrah [censored] up his application for the National draft and the AFL allowed his application lapse to the pre season draft. We were confident we could get both using pick 1 of the rookie draft on Rockcliff, There was a huge knock on Rockliffs tank. Brisbane picked Rockcliff in the pre season. They got Rockcliff and we got Jurrah and Jordie McKenzie.
  5. Stepping down while I get help is not a resignation. Not close. I have been locked away all morning and expected to read a statement from the AFL by now. I think they may be finding it difficult getting his resignation.
  6. He cant continue to put his hand out every Thursday working for a business with a key responsibly being to protect the image of the game. Because of his violent past he is now no longer able to play the game at any level. He cant remain as an administrator on any level.
  7. He's not the guy they showed quite distressed after the huge Essendon loss during the Neeld days. If so he was in Transport on Monday before the game.
  8. Dangers offer was sub 1 million. Wanted to play for his child hood team. Fyfe is chasing money. Franklin ring a bell. Yes agree swaps can come into play. My mistake.
  9. I have no idea. Under what circumstances can the owning club trade a free agent.
  10. I am a Tyson fan but he butchered it today. Its a problem.
  11. When kicking became king the focus was to develop a weapon on your preferred. NP was dropped out of the equation.
  12. Ian Ridley 8 seasons 6 Grand Finals 5 Premierships
  13. My wife has no interest in the football at all. I have tried to get her involved but it just doesn't happen. In fact she's happy for me to go to the games or travel interstate and get on the beers as she knows it helps with switching off. On the other hand 2 of my best friends have been going to the football together for 40 years. Passionate North fans. Started out cans of Vic and pies in the outer together. Now they take their 3 kids to games all around the country making a real family event of going to the football. They have watched 3 premierships together. Its a beautiful thing and I know which one I would prefer.
  14. I remember more St Kilda being referred to as the Carlton reserves. I got a good laugh out of it. The players involved sort of stuck with me.
  15. Yeah similar to St Kilda in the 80's when they were known as the Carlton reserves Wow Jones, McConville, Marcou, Sheldon, Kourkomelis
  16. I have been an AFL member since day 1. This year myself and three guys I attend the games with have decided to buy trident memberships. About the same price Sit with Melbourne fans Much better viewing Guaranteed seat for the GF if Melbourne competing. My son was put down for MCC when he was born. Estimate is he will be due for membership in 3 years. He's not into the cricket. Will only attend Melbourne games and that's when it doesn't clash with his footy Can only get a beer behind glass. I will probably let it lapse when offered.
  17. Well if you feel this list has reached a state where it has the luxury of sacrificing a spot on a 39 year old rather than trying find a 200 gamer than I think you're deluded. If Boomer goes around again it will be to play deep in the finals, he would probably laugh at us. Anyway, agree to disagree.
  18. If Lumumba can get himself right he will be pushing for a spot when Harvey has long gone after topping his super up with us.
  19. Do you really think that. Do you think we have progressed that far ahead of North Melbourne where we can pick up one of their discards. I don't think we have.
  20. I just don't think the club will recruit any players with probably one season to offer. Cross worked well because of where our list was at the time and the impact he had on culture and preparation. Boomer was a perfect fit for Essendon this year, no way known us next year.
  21. I don't have an argument with that. Not many would. So if Harvey joined Melbourne next year how many finals games do you see him playing in red and blue?
