Red But Mostly Blue

They just seem to get stale so easily! Maybe I don't eat them fast enough haha

Yep, perfect way to pass the time. Especially given that there will not be any more updates at this time of the night, just rehashings of what we already don't know haha It's like a delicious ad break before we get back to the show tomorrow.

I have not tried this before! Thanks for the idea!

Dark chocolate royals are fantastic (and highly underrated)! And you can't go wrong with the classic Tim Tam!

Yeah, Nice are poor. Haha yeah I took a bit of a biscuit detour there. Agree with that approach, we hold all the cards, and it would be mighty hard for Hogan to leave us next year after we win the flag! And we'll get May (this or next year). Win win!

Totally agree with all of that... ... Except the milk coffee biscuit bit. Have I been living my life all wrong? They're not my fav biscuit by any stretch, but they've been alright from time to time! It's a dunking biscuit. And there's an art to dunking, but not losing the biscuit, because they're not as solid as, say, a malt o milk. Kingstons are worse, surely?

Haha does bingo include when you drop the reference yourself? If so, what did you drink!?

With this offer, Freo is sending a clear message: It will win the next 5 flags with its current list, and that Hogan would merely be surplus, maybe for the bench. Makes sense to me. Better put some money on that Freo 2019 premiership, and get a nice full back tattoo. Of Peter Bell. and Fyfe. Together, in a warm embrace.

LOL. Um, no? Offers like these only really prove that Freo is a powerhouse club, led by a great, tall GM and a smart coach, and filled to the brim with talent... ...Oh, wait.

Feared!!?

The man's not an animal!!! I'd rather play for Freo than be caught wearing the same suit twice (or thrice) over a weekend!

bahaha - absolutely Although, I did once come across a person with the last name '[censored]' - who insisted it was pronounced Coke. We agreed to disagree.

This alternate ending is both sad and hilarious! The Taylor Swift addition is ?

Haha as a lawyer, I'm halfway there!

lol this is hilarious, and way more likely!!

...Is it just me, or does this scenario seem perfectly set up for: [Jesse Hogan is about to sign at the Dockers, he looks up, and a montage plays in his mind] [Jesse smiles as he reminisces about the good times at the Dees] [Jesse looks to the East...] [Cue music, maybe some cliché 80s love song, or Al Green 'Let's Stay Together', for example] [Jesse gets in his car, and drives cross country through the night, top down, hand tapping on the door] [He arrives in Melbourne, parks the car hurriedly across a few parking spaces, runs across Gosch's Paddock] [Jesse runs towards Goody and the boys, who are also running towards him] [Group hug, tears etc. Goody tells Jesse he never doubted him for a second] [Jesse re-signs for a bajillion years] [We win 5 flags] [Fin]

I've read a lot of speculation re Hogan/May, but, finally, someone that cuts through the crap - and in one sentence! Love your work @Redleg

GREAT NEWS - thanks for sharing. Our 2019 premiership winning team will look fantastic with Hogan in it.

Completely agree. I'd love for him to stay, and am sure he'd add value next year, but if we can maximise our return now and pursue May plus some outside midfield pace, we are in golden era, elite territory.

Pedo is the perfect example of making the most of your capabilities. He didn't have the gift of speed/height/skills that some of the other guys do, but he performed when he was called upon, and always gave is all. It's clear that he loves the club, and I'm sure it was better for his presence. I wish him all the luck, seems like a he's a pretty nice guy, and did well to roll with his nickname!

I quite like the look of that forward line!! Agree that the backline is probably a little trickier, Lever's re-introduction will cause some minor structural headaches, and obviously result in someone currently getting games to no longer get those games. Someone will have to go.

Agree with much of the above. He's got heart, he runs hard - but sometimes his execution/decision making has let him down. Some of that could be confidence, and some perhaps injury. Either way, I think that our backline has settled a lot in recent times - and this will help. With a good pre-season, improved fitness and a boost in confidence (fresh start, maybe a premiership team haha), I think Hunt will find a spot in our 22. With our playing style, there will always be a home for fast, driving rebounds from our HB.

Also, how good (and handy) were our SMOTHERS!? I don't think I've seen that many smothers in a game before. Indicative of the game, really

Yeah! The pressure was amazing. They had nowhere to go. I'll sleep like a king tonight.

Spot on, I thought he was great. He's been very good these last few weeks. Very handy!
