  1. Dear me
  2. It’s imperative. We didn’t have it for a long while (1800km away, now an hour). It makes things very hard depending on your situation.
  3. Sticking $$ on an Oliver brownlow for 2025 right now
  4. I will miss his gut running followed by his gaping mouth trying to get his air back. I loved that about him. He rang my son on a junior member ring around about a month ago, and he was so happy to tell Alex he was his favourite, behind Petracca šŸ˜‚ I had a quick word to him too and he didn’t rush me off the phone. That says a lot. One of our faves. Go well, Nibbler. It’s funny eh, I can’t think of a player except Howe who’s left us that I bore any ill will toward and no one exemplifies that more than ANB.

    The way we went silent on the Maynard incident at very high levels was incredibly disappointing. From Gleeson’s ā€œI’m concerned he’ll miss finalsā€ comment, the victim blaming by Collingwood, allowing McGuire’s comments to go unchallenged, the lack of public statement at the highest levels - big let down. someone made a comment earlier that they’d prefer the board/exec work behind the scenes - sure, but they can do both. Working behind the scenes isn’t helping the MFC achieve all that much the AFL not having counter experts (biomechanics, sports movement etc) to me displayed incredible ineptitude or a lack of desire to properly prosecute the case - either way our club should have been decrying that prosecution very clearly we’ve been the good corporate citizen for a long period now - moments like that demand stronger action it has left a very bad taste in my mouth that episode
  6. This. Find the leaker and sack them
  7. We didn’t have an unwell baby but our first was very challenging. Being 2hrs flight (+ travel on each end ) is a large barrier to calling and seeing if someone can come around from 15 mins away.
  8. It’s none of my business, and I could be wrong but perhaps the baby has an illness or maybe mum and dad need familial help otherwise? Having been there and not had help, flying to Adelaide isn’t the same as having someone 30 mins away.
  9. 12ft.io is your friend for Domainfax and sometimes that paper for Capital C Capital brigands, the AFR.
  10. I’m try to be positive about where we are! Pick 4 or 5!!
  11. We could end up with pick 4/5 depending how things go
  12. There’s always cycling up the Izoard or Ventoux as a very good swap
  13. Sportsbet / nice odds on us missing the 8 a month or so ago

    Agree with this and have been thinking same No idea on replacement though
  15. That’ll be the end of bumps and some tackles? And they’ll have to consider long bans on transgressors. Thanks Maynard!
  16. I love the hyperbole in this, made me laugh (in a good way, not snarky way).
  17. That first 1/4 was something to behold The turnovers drove me crazy Giddy has got some skills. That behind the back pass in I think the first or second was some kind of very good
  18. Making me feel heart attacky

    En Oh No why must these clowns always be changing stuff just no jesus wept
  20. I despise Maynard and want him out of the game. more importantly I despise everyone involved in that Potemkin tribunal including the AFL, the compromised Gleeson and I’ve got some brickbats for our club for not being far more vocal
  21. Our proclivity for these zany moves won’t be complete until Clayton plays fullback and we run May on the wing.

    One thing is for sure, it’s making me jolly cross seeing us below 8th.

    TBF the site and its post edit / cache function isn’t fabulous on mobile view ports/devices. I’ve had very old replies cached and pre populate responses to totally different threads some of the site’s behaviour on Firefox / iOS is weird so it might be that
  24. Maybe clubs and player managers love is because we play nice and are easy to deal with (roll over)….?
