Timothy Reddan-A'Blew

Was stated by the hosts of the AFL's draft stream. So, no, not sure!😄

Apparently cos Aimee Mackin 'has decided to stay in Ireland'! Temporary, I'd hope! AD couldn't be rookied cos of her Lauriston games.

Todd Patterson describes her as, amongst other more obviously upside traits, 'really low to the ground'. No chopping out in the ruck, then...

Saints have snapped up Norwood's grand final / premiership BOG, Harry Boyd, who I, and others, promoted on here. I'm thinking - or at least hoping - we've now upgraded on that prospect with AJ. Prove me right, Aidan! 😄

Molly O'Hehir and Maggie Mahony: they sound like a couple of Irish jigs! A couple of home-grown Colleens to go with our wonderful cohort of imported ones!

Georgie Brisbane didn't get as far as the Lions' first pick.

Fish is a Swan 😄

Draft under way, so, @Demonland, amend thread title now?

Suns forced to match our Havana Harris bid.

Enough of this pun-ishment! Though I also really must suitably acknowledge the continued, unprecedented streak: 😉😉😉 Geddit?

From @bush demon's response to @DeeZone 4 hours ago, to @layzie's post 2 hours ago, would be, I believe, a record-breaking consecutive pun-ting streak?

Unmistakably 'Chicken', for those whose black-and-whites (TVs!) were tuned to the original Friday night footy!

Great story, and such finds/posts are one of the pleasures (usually!) that is @Demonland. It is also a story, however, that makes one say, '[censored] war'. And those pictures; 21, going on 31...

So, the name of our new facility is sewn up, then.

https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/1704159/aflw-list-update-hill-departs This seems harsh for someone who played 8 2024 games for us and apparently brought the playing and other qualities lauded in the report. Does being 'an injury top-up' player have particular conditions about continuation - or, more particularly, non-continuation? Does anyone know anything more about Grace's circumstances?

I'm thinking you did get the allusion, Bin, but, just in case... An allusion directed at me by my parents in my dietarily carefree youth. Insert yummy foodstuffs.

This is very impressive and appreciated, George. Out of curiosity, what info sources are you tapped into?

An alternative origin of your 'Nom de D'land', Bin?

'Marley...relocated to Melbourne at the beginning of the year in a bid to further his football and education.' Just possibly, 'Xavier relocated Marley...to further its football...'? 😉

Chaos for the Dees' catering team: how many redundant BBB vegan meals left in the freezer, and taking space needed now for the caveman cuisine?

From Neos Kosmos: 'Growing up in Collingwood, he is also naturally a huge Collingwood supporter. 'He remembers the days when he used to go to Victoria Park as a kid, after his dad finished work on a Saturday, and stand on beer cans to be able to see the action. '“That was a bonding of father and son, going to the footy, which I do with my son now, so that’s been carried forward.” 'Kanga, is a successful racehorse owner, and has tried to involve his mates at the Collingwood Football Club in racing, and according to him, “they didn’t need much convincing.” 'He counts Collingwood coach Craig McRae and list boss Justin Leppitsch among his friends, owning a number of shares in horses together, including a horse that finished second in this year’s Group 1 Caulfield Guineas.' Very hard not to be cynical...

Sorry if this has been posted before, but... The Mt Scopus plans don't seem to be a problem for the Club: https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/1703615/caulfield-business-plan-update-mount-scopus

Can you elaborate, SONS?

Of the many and varied things that attract one to, hold them to, or drive them from a place, the girl/boyfriend one has at age 21 is one of the less reliable, I would suggest? Oldfart cynicism (/regret/wistfulness/envy)
