  1. Struck down with the lurgy this morning and can't go to the game!!! 😫 This means I have an MCC members reserved seat and visitor ticket available. No cost, I just want it utilised. Any MCC member without a ticket (and a friend to go with) that wants to go please dm me. First in best dressed.
  2. As irrelevant as they are to Riak, big brothers misdemeanours may raise seeds of doubt in some clubs minds. It's possible he could drop a little lower than otherwise expected. After the top 10 or so it becomes a bit of a lottery and any perceived risk can be a factor, even if subconsciously.
  3. Would that prevent him playing at a lower level? I don't know. His doctor needs to say it.
  4. No matter what happens, he will always be my bookmark for 2021 GF replays. ❤️💙🏆
  5. From what I can source - now in his 8th year, Smith has played 28 MFC games for 1 goal and around 27 Casey games for 15 goals (inc. 2 'bags' of 2 and 1 'haul' of 3 - the only times he's kicked multiple goals). A very long bow to think he could do what I've highlighted in your post.
  6. Probably been said somewhere here but hanging out to play GC again and see Will Powell 'get what he deserves' 😈
  7. No one I've ever known speaks like that, but several TV journalists do, including some from overseas. It must be taught at 'journo school'. I agree, It is infuriating!
  8. By also, I meant 'and another question'. The two aren't linked.
  9. I'd love his opinion of Disco Turner. Also, anyone else on the list, whether playing at Casey or in the first 22 as a forward, that strikes him as a possible small to medium backman option.
  10. Been going to the football for over 50 years. I have never booed any player or umpire. I'd feel a fool doing it and I'd be right. It's simply moronic.
  11. Now proud to call him a son of a Melbourne Brownlow Medalist
  12. I think Monoccular's point is that Kane is irrelevant. I agree with him. What do you learn from him about the game today other than who he likes and who he doesn't? He prefers to play the man.
  13. I remember playing against UHSOB. Enjoyable. Also remember playing against La Trobe Uni. They once described playing against us was like playing against cartoon characters because so many Thornbury players had tattoos. We read it and several of us that didn't have tatts decided to buy several temp ones and put them everywhere including our faces. They looked in shock and we led by 15 goals at half-time 🤣 The neighbour club you recall was Bulleeen United. Those matches weren't fun. Actually dangerous, ugly affairs.
  14. Share your hatred of Port Melbourne. Played 3rds VFA football against them. Team-mate threatened with a gun by a supporter over the fence. I was king hit by a supporter from behind coming off the ground. I was also hit when watching in the crowd the year before.
  15. 10 year Thornbury player here. Definitely enjoyed a beer with opponents afterwards, but I always kept an eye on 2-3 team-mates that had the potential to explode.
  16. I see what you've done there. Our highest ever score is 28.14 (twice) 🤔 Sold!!!
  17. I said pre season on this forum Freo won't make the 8. I was expecting around 10th - 12th. Very possible they may finish a little lower, hence my highly unlikely comment, rather than impossible. I have never wanted to be wrong more in my life! Crash and burn you b%*!@$d's
  18. The only way we will get pick #1 is if Freo finish last. That is highly unlikely.
  19. Next season Foxtel will be able to use their own commentators when screening Ch.7 matches. Can't wait! BT is horrendous. That said, loved listening to James Bradshaw's GF commentary (and Daisy) 😁
  20. Chandler had some great games for Casey in the middle last year. He can definitely play there.
  21. Jordan's game was the best I've seen him play last week. Hope he stays in 22 but as you say, who becomes the sub? It is a reflection of just how strong this team is. It is a wonderful problem to have, one that most other teams would envy.
  22. We were $1.01 against North in 2021 😳
  23. I love reading most of Demonland posts, but none more than those from WCW, Katrina and all related to the DA. You people are magic and represent our club so proudly. WCW, you mention fund raising. How can we devotees help in a tangible way? I probably have had my head in the sand, but I don't recall ever having the opportunity to financially support the DA. Also, I'm sure many of us would jump at the chance to purchase life sized player cut outs from MAD printing. Could this be done in conjunction with the DA so you get a cut?
  24. Yes! Stats will show just 7 possessions and 2 goals but he handed Jefferson 2 more he had every right to kick himself. He is coming from a minor league, so those coming through the TAC system have a head start. Give him a full year at Casey and a pre season and this kid could be special. High footy IQ and a natural forward. Very excited to see how good he will be.
