On the subject of acting, what’s Clint Bizzle doing these days?

Fun game Scooter.... no cheating here Jamie Elliot v MFC: 7 goals from 6 games below Mitch Brown v MFC: 2 goals from 3 games above Josh Jenkins v MFC: 11 goals from 8 games below Tom Papley v MFC: 7 goals from 4 games below Eddie Betts v MFC: 36 from 20 games above Josh Walker v MFC: 2 goals from 3 games above Dan Butler v MFC: 1 goal from 3 games below Daniel Menzel v MFC: 14.5 goals from 6 games - would bloody well always snag about 3/4 so, below Josh Bruce v MFC: 15.2 goals from 9 games below Mason Wood v MFC: 7 goals from 3 games above Freddie Clutterback v MFC: 0 goals from 0 games Levi Casboult v MFC: 6 goals from 5 games above Aside from Eddie, most of mine have gone on "if i rate them, below, if i don't above".

It would pay to consider the dedication of Harley to be permentantly in rehab for 5 years. It is a dark, lonely place, where there is no reward until you get on the back. It is an isolating place. I would argue that his willingness to pursue this after 5 years, shows more passion, than someone who has being operating injury free.

Can anyone enlighten me to the marketing strategy of denoting "China" at the bottom? let alone find china, it's like Where is Wally?

Yep, Bravo! I'll send a frozen meat tray your way...well, maybe not in this heat.

you've got a scratch on the record @chookrat, keeps jumping and repeating.

Feels about right @Bring-Back-Powell

Whatever gets him over the line I say...

source?

Ahhh, beat me to it @deanox Goodwin clearly has been innovative and some would suggest it has been at the detriment to winning matches. Of course (with hindsight) all innovations looks great if you win, and poor if loose. So he's on a bit of a hiding to nothing from some corners...

Speaking to a Richmond supporter 'mate' of mine today - believes we'd be lucky to get one Friday night match aside from our primetime ANZAC event. So, nearest to the pin Demonland Are there any optimists (3 Friday nights plus)? Personally, I think we will get 1 (and a lot of sunday arvo's).

#Humble brag I once presented at a conference for international cricket (in a different discipline) in Sydney, he was the keynote, discussing fat vs sugar in the diet , particularly in the context of sport, before this conundrum has become media popular. Was an insightful monologue. He is well versed, clearly has a wealth of experience and history and I hope he brings forensic assessment to his role On a flippant side note... Perhaps JohGle (Josh Mahoney/Glenn Bartlett) have persuaded him to connect to his inner altruist, rather than capitalist for the love of the club. Perhaps there is ‘seduction in a fading power’...

prototype? do you mean refinement?

I concur, my question to the FD department would be, if this assumption was the case, was it hoped by both the FD and Tom, that by merely playing week in and week out , his form would finally ‘snap’ improve?

You could say that for any single team out there @praha

Mmm, I suspect your viewpoint is more objective and less romantic than the journalists...

Imagine if that was Goodwin, there would be a range of posters suggesting that he is only trying to save his job... personally I rate buzza

I presume that the FD have 'made sense' of the poor 2019 vs the very good 2018 around the 2019 pre seasons injuries/surgery and therefore limited preseason for 'fitness' in getting bodies right, as well as cohesion for the team. As well as working on clear deficits : recruiting Wing's - working on delivery into forward line, enhancing the fitness aspects through Burgess, they are backing the same players to have a very solid 2020. Which is their perogative, hence no need for Jenkins (but that does not mean they have not being going for a bigger body forward - as @Yokozuna has alluded to, it just means they have not snared the forward that they would prefer and are not willing/wanting to bring in Jenkins). IF it is a similar outcome to 2019 WITH all these things addressed, then I feel it IS evidence that TMAC/WEID etc is not viable going forward.

I would assume @Demon3, there is a lot more that you probably (and myself as well) are not aware of in our particular clubs decision making process as to why they would deliberately choose not to have him on board. If you were to know these reasons, it would seem less 'crazy' and probably quite astute.

Good to see Dangerfield owning the joint. Imagine if that was happening at the Dee's - it'd be all, 'tail wagging the dog'.

Bravo @deanox

With all your nous, you do understand that it is not only Goodwin making the call on this one. I am curious why you always bring it back to Goodwin saving his job, vs Goodwin looking at the bigger picture and being club first, which if pays off, also saves his job?

Missed your optimism for a while there @olisik x

I didnt say he isnt a nice person...

Because they don't like his character perhaps...
