I opened this thread hoping for a treatise on the death of football vernacular since the 1980's - namely 'tiggy touch wood' for an undeserved free kick.

if you thought that you are clearly lacking intestinal fortitude

I hope the Cats get squashed

I was told that it was an honest mistake. I will take them at their word. And yes the proof will be in the pudding eating.

When required I am happy to volunteer to eat pudding.  Cut and come again.

Top 4, prelim, 3 debutants with one to play 10+ games

I think it is a disgrace.

Luke was the spur of the moment replacement for AVB who was the backup for Viney.  If Viney plays Luke doesn't.

I'm presuming 'aggressive', attached to 'philisophically', and AR's '...we had it taken away from us...(at times last year)' means in game style - i.e. moving the ball on more quickly, instinctively, to open (riskier?) areas of the field - not physical aggression.

I hope it is also physical aggression because teams like the Swans went hard at us and they won.  In the GF the cats sat the Swans on their [censored] in the opening minutes.  Dees need to do the same.

I wouldn’t be seen dead in black and white stripes! Nor am I a cow!

However, I bought something that I’ve yet to try but really don’t hold much hope of them working …  mosquito patches. They’re like nicotine patches except they adhere to your clothing and not to your skin, and they don’t help you give up smoking. 😁

I will use one of these patches tomorrow at feeding frenzy time and report my findings here.

You're all welcome.  

Apparently if you have a lethal dose of vitamin b the mozzies dont bite. Anyway you wont feel it.

Was Goody at training?

Brayshaw so laconic…

I don't know if anybody is interested but is this the first sighting of 'laconic' for this year?

I can’t remember if it was Parkin or Pagan, but a very successful multi premiership coach once said that a team needed to turn over at least 3 or 4 new players every year for sustained success.  

I've also said that 😁

I dont recall there being much of a problem with interstate players getting home sick and leaving in the 80's & 90's.

Selection of Ashton is an absolute circus

It may be common knowledge to others, but why is he training with Jack Crisp?

I assume they both have the same coach?

It is rather hard to make a judgement on players I have never see but...

Max, Trac and Clarrie are ins for me...outs would be Big Bob, ridley and wells

And I note Neitz is not included so he replaces N Smith as a player

Max challenges Cordner...

1.  I get to attend a game

2. JVR kicks 20+

3. Goodwin says : We didnt expect xxxx to be ready so soon

I really hope he makes it.  What with Hibberd (Hibbard, Hibbert, Hippo etc) close to retirement the list does need players who no one can spell.  Whilst Jordon/Jordan is ok for a backup I do think that Sestan/Seston/Sestin/Sextin has massive potential.

@Action Jackson I have been meaning to ask ; will you be changing your name to Action No Jackson or similar?

66 years and i still havent made it
