In Harmes Way

As an Arsenal supporter, I sure as hell hope it wasn't a straight swap Misson for Burgess.

Knowing MFC like we do, it's entirely possible Super that they've done a linkedin search and hired Darren Burgess the chef of Masterchef by mistake.

I'm wondering what level of science goes into analysing somebody like Steven May - mature, big bodied defender joins the club after 6 seasons consistent 17-19 games per season (missed more games through suspension than injury) and skin folds around 60. Minute he arrives at Melbourne - need skin folds at 50 and he's had nothing but leg injuries ever since. If we didn't like the player he was, why did we pick him up? MFC just like my wife - I love you just the way you are. Then we got married and I've suddenly got a bunch of flaws.

If he’s as expensive as some think, can we get him to kick 45 goals a year on the weekend as part of his role?

I ventured out to the Western oval in 1988 to see the dees take on the doggies. Stretch took an absolutely amazing hanger on the outer wing, right where I was on the other side of the fence. Gees he got up high. I just let out a completely uncontrolled "Fxxx me..." One of those things you never forget. Poetry and power.

I wish I could like this twice.

Both your boys played well today Mr Wagner

I’m looking forward to the commentary on how Gilbert MacAdams Aunty or uncle kicked a goal in a local league game from beyond the tree in the outer wing which is about a 85m roost. #dreamtime

We’ll still be getting pushed into the starting gate

And his hair, unless the mullet was a wig

Mate, Deeamond isn’t in the dictionary either

All the rules that are indecipherable like the Gawn blocking frees and umpire interpretation on intentional OOB are killing this game. Death by a thousand cuts (that is cuts and not a swear word describing the AFL).

In this Master Chef analogy, is our coaches box the mystery box?

Where’s Southern Cross station?

We didn’t create the fixture.

Maurice - More than a passing resemblance to Warwick Capper (tight shorts assisting the high octave, plus the hair)

All of my family are speaking louder by not filling it in......

Let’s see how that pans out for Tim Kelly at Geelong...

Which is exactly why Hogan was worth 2x first round picks....

Are you sure they weren’t the umpires Moony?

When Tim Smith marked the ball on 50m line and tried to pass that ball in the third quarter to a player no closer to goal rather than go back and have a shot, I reckon he earned himself a week off. I’d have Pruess in for Bull and play him out of the goal square with Weid and TMac playing further up the ground.

Both jealous and proud of any Vic based dees supporters that have made a weekend away to fly the flag and watch this one. Wish I was with you. I’m bloody freezing.

I was at the Oval in London in October 2000, just after we'd lost the grannie, to see the Dees play the Crows. It wasn't exactly hotly contested, but a ripper day given I hadn't seen the dees live for 2-3 years. I'm not entirely sure the runners weren't taking beers out to the players.

So he’s definitely going to Collingwood then.

Yeater is the head coach at Edithvale Aspendale now. Sadly the mullet is a thing of the past.
