LOL. Did he know that it was the Giants media guy that stuck a microphone in his face? Glad he's not our problem any more.

Training Ground?
Any word on which pocket of the racecourse it will be built on Redleg? I think the proposed site has changed three times already. Across from Caulfield station would be great.

Nice of BH to nip over and loan him his scarf for the pic.

The young lad picked up by North sounds like a really nice kid.

PRESEASON TRAINING: Monday 17th November 2025
Seems to have burnt quite a few bridges at her previous clubs. Her premiership reunions are going to be a hoot.

2026 AFL Fixture
Has there ever been a Thursday night or Sunday night game played in Launceston? Thinking of biting the bullet and booking flights now.

2026 AFL Fixture
If we do play Hawthorn in Launceston will round 17 at least be before they stop announcing the time & date of games so we caan actually book flights and accommodation in advance?

If it's that grey one they're wearing again you can understand why.

2026 AFL Fixture
I know it's Essendon again but as we're the 'away' team and 95% of us won't be travelling for the game anyway does it really matter who we play? We have now been on a pretty long run of almost always playing them only once a year and almost always 'away'. It reminds me of when we had a long run of playing Fitzroy in their home game at VFL Park instead of the Junction Oval. I only remember playing them once down there in my early years following the Dees.

State of Origin is Back
I'm trying hard to keep my apathy in check.

2026 AFL Fixture
Weird that they'd rather send their supporters to Tasmania instead of Docklands for a 'home' game. It's not as if they need the money, assuming there's any on offer. If there isn't then it's extremely weird.

Wildcard Round
I've actually been there. It's a tiny village on the Lofoten Islands in the far north of Norway but is spelt Å.
-
Wildcard Round
I'd be happy if it was 16 teams again. Four groups of four teams. No seedings in the qualifiers either. 1974 & 1978 were great without England.
-
Wildcard Round
That's actually not the case YOTD. 2026 will be the first one with 48 teams. Also, the last one was in Qatar, not Dubai but hey ho, it's all just one big hot desert built over by slave labour from the sub-continent.

Wildcard Round
The optics on this would have looked slightly better if they had announced that they were REDUCING the finals to 6 automatic qualifying spots and that teams finishing 7-10 would play off to make up 2 additional spots. Additionally, these two games would NOT be considered as finals.
-
Wildcard Round
FIFA World Cup also due to expand to 48 countries soon as well. I remember when there were only 16 countries. Of course Scotland will miss out by finishing 49th in the qualifying rounds.

Luke Jackson back to Victoria?
If his ex is from the Bellarine Peninsula then he now has zero reason to leave WA.

Wildcard Round
Will be introduced when we have a 20 team competition.

I'd do it just so we can delist him as well.

Training Ground?
I sometimes meet my dad at the cafe under the grandstand at Waverley for breakfast and can't see any way it could be closed off for training. It's surrounded by a housing estate with multiple sets of steps leading down onto a granitic sand path around the oval itself. Anyone with an upstairs balcony at the rear of their house could also watch us train.

Farewell Christian Petracca
He's probably just trying to find the right ghostwriter DD. Maybe you should put your hand up @Ghostwriter ?

Farewell Clayton Oliver
With Claz seemingly committed to GWS, if we don't accept their derisory offer what chance he's still in red & blue come 7:30pm tomorrow? There's no mention any other interest.
