How the New Recruits are Tracking
I watched Hore in the match simulation last Friday. He was defending and seemed to me to be out of position, keeping the an eye on two or three forwards, not near any of them and looking a bit lost. However when the ball was kicked to his area he prevented his opponents getting a clean possession and killed off the forward thrust. Could develop into a pretty useful defender.

How the New Recruits are Tracking
Careful with the corny one liners Mazer. There are some humourless old codgers reading this.

Training - Friday 18th January, 2019
I watched them for a while. Spargo is noticeably stronger. His skills impressed me. Petracca out muscled Hibberd in one drill and took off with the ball. Clarry was with a smaller group probably the rehab group working on short kicking and fast ball movement. He was very comfortable. Melksham was walking around the boundary line with his shoes in his hand past Clarry who asked him " Are you ok ? " Melksham just shook his head. Looked a little downcast. He was walking with no apparent discomfort so I m not sure what was going on there. When the rain came there was a bit of fumbling but the ball must have been pretty greasy. Easy to forgive.

I'm going to my first session for the year. I'm not the greatest training reporter but I'll make some observations which might interest the Hoi polloi.

It's a holistic approach to training at Freo. You have to be ready for any eventuality.

Origins/meanings of Display Names?
I had just returned from a Qld holiday when I signed up to demonland and I thought Queensland ... pineapples... why not ' Pineapple dee ' ? Plus my wife thinks I'm a bit of a pineapple. And how does that old expression go ? "The answer is a pineapple "

These scum bags have been poorly treated, plus their philanthropic pursuits have been cruelly curtailed for some years. Let's cut them some slack

2019 Fixture
I think we're misunderstanding the clever thought processes of the Nabobs in the AFL hierarchy. They see a chance to showcase Carlton, a great team in the making, no doubt. Put them in a high profile match against a team they could beat... they win and hey presto they're on their way to being great again. Mind you, if they get smashed by 15 goals, all of a sudden it doesn't look like such a great plan.

The No T$ No B$ Thread
I have a question on etiquette about which I feel someone here may be able to advise. Just for background, I was raised a good catholic. Mum told me ' Never tell a lie'. Dad told me ' Always speak well of people' All this makes it very difficult to talk about certain people. One thing they both insisted on was courtesy. Fair enough ! Last week when I was in the fruit shop, my access to the bananas was blocked by a woman of a certain age. I looked at her and said as politely as I could ' Excuse me, madam ' She turned on me and gave me this look as if to say ' Madam, you're calling me madam ???? !!!!! ' Then she stomped away in a huff. What the hell should I have said?? What do I say in future??

The No T$ No B$ Thread
I have denigrated this thread a couple of times. It took me a while to get the gist of it. I just thought the contributors were a little off the grid and a tad peculiar. I've just arrived in the midst of banana land and thought I'd put in my two penneth's worth. Just a question. Is page 1000 only open to the select few or can any mug have a crack at getting on it. ?? ps Signorellis in Balwyn are unloading ' experienced ' bananas for $ 2 per kilo if you get in quick. ( and they've got some lovely Italians ladies on the till )

2019 Fixture
And quite right there should be a Melbourne vs Collingwood game round 1 Saturday at the G. Make it a 2.00 pm start to boot. That will get the hairs on the back of the neck standing on end.And a huge win for the deeees.

Farewell Jesse Hogan
Can I suggest, though, that it still makes more sense than the NO TS NO BS thread ??? At least this one's not going around and around in circles.

Farewell Jesse Hogan
Can we have Mazer Rackham's Master Chef style analysis on some of the biscuits mentioned please ??

Farewell Jesse Hogan
On the contrary, if we hold on to Jesse now and repeat the same effort next year, we can easily surpass the No TS no BS thread for posts. Aim high, we can do It !!
