  1. As an aside, congrats to Jessie Hogan on winning the GWS B&F. If you get a chance, watch his acceptance speech - itā€™s great.
  2. Shame to hear that Gus has left the event (Lingers mentioned he had left)

    Iā€™m waiting till we hit $34 then Iā€™m going to load up.

    Why did he do that PF? Or why did the Club pick him then? Either Clarry or the Club cannot / donā€™t deserve to use that excuse. PS I assume you wonā€™t be leaving us now PF?

    Jaded, not sure that may be the case with Goody. Remember who it was that made the decision to get rid of our last two ā€œtroublemakersā€ - Hogan and Watts. By all reports Goody terminated them because they were a bad / disruptive influence on the team. If Clarrie has fallen off the wagon again, then Goody may well be heartbroken but, based on past actions, he is able to make the hard calls himself - and most likely has, despite what has been ā€œreportedā€.
  6. Ollie, you have just given Hawk another opportunity to respond. While he has every right to express his opinion on here- no matter how annoying- we are only encouraging him by responding. Itā€™s click bait, treat it as such.
  7. Haha Is this the reason he wasnā€™t delisted?
  8. Did our ā€œcultureā€ start to be questioned before or after Hunter arrived at the club?
  9. Hey Tarax, can you help me with the Latin translation please. sursum corda I think I get - ā€œlight up your heartsā€ but alter erara I donā€™t get - ā€œ the other was wrongā€?
  10. Donā€™t know Campbell from a bar of soap, but is he any better than Fullarton? But I still donā€™t understand why we are looking for a back up ruck, when what we need is a forward pocket ruckman who can play 23 games so that Roo doesnā€™t have to ruck. Surely!

    Red, I think youā€™ll find it is actually more stages than 3. Once the feasibility stage is approved, Iā€™d suggest that final design / for-construction plans would then proceed - you donā€™t expend the cost of detailed design/construction details without the feasibility stage being signed off. Then the Tender is undertaken, reviewed and the Contract awarded. Finally construction commences.
  12. Not sure when the B&F is, but surely youā€™d think Tracc might think it important to spend that night with his teammates - to get some brownie points at least. Surely he could head OS after that night.
  13. Well i have a very different view of our members. Why don't you set up a Demonland Poll to test your theory?
  14. as i believe it very much should be. Why would we want Whateley or any other media person publicly interviewing candidates for our club? Its none of their [censored] business.
  15. I was struggling to find a reason, like most on here, why Gutnick would approach Green, and why Green might meet with him, Elwood. I mean, as far as i know, Gutnick hasnā€™t approached any other president to give advice to. So why Green? I simply asked the question to see if there was maybe a ā€œfaithā€ link. Certainly nothing sinister in my mind. Iā€™m sorry if my question offended you.
  16. I heard his Nona gave him a recipe for Humble Pie - but Tracc doesnā€™t like the taste.
  17. No shiiit Sherlock.

    OMG! They are identical!
  19. If the players association involvement leads to an outcome where player safety procedure is improved then I am all for it - and Iā€™m sure this is their aim, rather than having a pot shot at the MFC, as a number on here seem to believe.
  20. Ok then, Doesnā€™t someone have to ā€œwin it (the ball) at the turnoverā€ before you can then ā€œmove the ballā€?
  21. Nobody is interested because there is nothing yet to get interested in. You may still be correct though, but until a formal proposal and funding application goes before the Govt, I can guarantee you that nobody will be interested in the MFC.
  22. Doesnā€™t someone have to ā€œwin it (the ball) at the sourceā€ before you can then ā€œmove the ballā€?
