  1. I know it but I don’t want to say it! Thanks for the tops post again This all of a sudden feels like 2020. I sent you a PM about ANB doing a junior ring around - thanks to his mum for raising a top quality man.
  2. Thank you Ben. Stick around a while.
  3. You’re too kind Why does legality come into it Just mangle the Mthfcrrrr
  4. My 9yo has been a bit bereft with ANB leaving and the CP5 brouhaha. What number to put on his guernsey?! And I’ve been trying to decide on a number for my premiers Anzac guernsey. Number 7 it is!!!! (though I do like number 2 for Robbie)
  5. Please this time, bury you know who
  6. That was bloody good to watch what could have been!
  7. I was going to take my eldest 9yo to his first dees game and try and get a photo with Nibbler afterwards after he rang the eldest on a junior ring around. Unfortunately in Syd at brother in laws . was ambivalent about missing but woke up in northern rivers this morning to an absolutely cracking day, so now a bit cross we’re not going especially as it was the last chance to see Nibbler. go dees!
  8. I’m looking forward to the inevitable media pile on
  9. This year and last eh
  10. The Bangalow pub is very Melbourne-esque. Like an inner Melbourne pub. Even has Aussie rules on the teles
  11. If true and if the story has come from his camp he may have scared Houston (and others?) off whatever your view of the Houston deal, it’s a suboptimal way of taking care of the club paying you a lot of $$
  12. I’m interested in what Chrysanthemum Thistlethwaite has to say on this: @WalkingCivilWar? šŸ•µšŸ»šŸ•µšŸ»
  13. Stick a pineapple on an Oliver brownlow, what, old boy!
  14. Is it available online? I’m not in melb so can’t listen. I’m happy to go through the torture of listening to Dwayne just for Chris
  15. Understatement we’ve had 250mm down Bangalow way.
  16. Good luck i wrote a constructive but plaintiff letter after the finals - highlighting how we responded to Maynard - nothing. I know I’m not owed a response but I’ve emailed Gary Pert before (before the 21 GF and got an obviously personal response immediately). I suspect membership may plummet next year Peter Ryan’s article today states she was bewildered at our position at the presidents lunch last week. Well. Aren’t we all!
  17. If it’s his mandate I have some serious questions for the coach.
  18. I feel like it would be a good move to not ready any football news or DL until round 1 . imagine the surprise at who’s playing!
  19. Straight sets 2023 set off alarm bells. Losing Gus rang more alarm bells, the Sydney game was putrid Kings birthday though. Should have come out breathing fire but too interested in cuddling Maynard
  20. It’s imperative. We didn’t have it for a long while (1800km away, now an hour). It makes things very hard depending on your situation.
  21. Sticking $$ on an Oliver brownlow for 2025 right now
  22. 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.
  23. 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
