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)

Ironic surprised emoji required.

So that's the 2024 quinella: RIP 'Gus and Gawny' and 'Lil Life Chats'. Anyone starting a book on who might get a gig in 2025?

We await the Club signing @red and blue forever's licensing agreement! 😄

The nickname 'Adjective' is a possibility...

I see the 'I'm thinking about that' emoji has dropped out of the drop-down!

And occasionally, no doubt... Time off his head.

No! Getouttahere!

...And from what I hear on here, that'd be the surest way for him not to be available to us! 😄

Will Collingwood bear a grudge for Sam Weideman?

I presume Warner warrants a thread because of possible flow-on benefits to us? Anyways, see my post on the 'Petty Back??' thread. Warner golfed with (ex-Swan) Eagles. And more decision-maker types than Harry teed off with!

Yes, no need to worry on Uncle's behalf, @640MD; I rather see him comfortably armchaired, pairing said asides/insults/accusations with a nice St Henris shiraz.

He'd be asking @picket fence, wouldn't he? I believe that's one of his slitheras.

How are media folks able to write with such certainty? If it's actual knowledge, why don't they elaborate? If it's actually speculation, then their certainty is borderline lying.

👏 and 🥈, all reporters! Has there ever been a pre-season attract this much interest and enthusiasm? A silver lining of the Year of Grief?

MBJMcV! Say it ain't so! (*) (*) You almost do so, @Lucifers Hero, but...

And on another aspect of Harry's movement possibilities, it's nice to know it's not just him/us! From The Age: ...Also high on Cox’s to-do list is getting a deal over the line with off-contract star Chad Warner, and fighting off the huge interest in his signature from the two clubs in his native Western Australia. The 23-year-old reportedly went golfing in Perth recently with former Swans types Don Pyke and Kieren Jack, who just happen to be employed by the West Coast Eagles as chief executive and head of strategy and innovation, respectively. Former Geelong champion Cameron Mooney said on SEN last week that such a meeting was a 'bad look' for Warner, and that he’d be 'filthy' if he was his teammate. Cox said: 'He’s certainly known Don and Kieren from his time here. We take it at face value on that'...

Yep. And it'll happen now cos we can rather than have to. Good times!
