I sincerely hope we get a shot at redemption and are drawn to play Essendon 17 games from today.

Is this Pickett Fence's burner account?

What a glorious sunny morning to wake up and be 5 and 2!

Gotta say I'm old school and prefer hand drawn images on a run through. Anyone can print off a picture and sticky tape it to a crepe backing. That said, the one tonight looked like a five year old's school project. The NZ flag was back to front. Why did they put the Williamstown Timeball Tower on the side the players ran through?

I’m actually a bit nervous about the game tonight. Don’t know why as I only had the two coffees today and they were both early. Let’s hope the nerves are unfounded and we build up an early buffer and then keep them at arms reach for the rest of the night. 🤞

I think pretty much all of level 4 is GA for tonight, Sideshow. I'll be sitting up there in the Ponsford as I did include away games in Melbourne on my tridents membership. You should be able to go online and purchase a GA ticket for the game.

I'm probably in the minority but I don't get footy's fascination with these Mickey Mouse trophy and medal presentations for what amounts to regular home & away games. Their low point would surely have been the Drink Drive Bloody Idiót Cup that Footscray and Richmond used to play off for when they had the same sponsor. Surely they all get thrown in the back of a cupboard and forgotten about the very next day.

Him and his ginger mate were two of the reasons we couldn't hit a target inside 50. I still prefer BP5. Or is it now BP3?

I like how they are now opening the roof at Docklands for some games. Is this just a regular Thursday night game or is it an Anzac Eve Eve blockbuster?

I read this on Tuesday and am pretty sure that buried deeper in the article it said that he didn't even end up playing any games for Carlton.

Just keep it simple and call it the White Collar Derby. Donations in large denomination notes only are collected by volunteers with brown paper bags and transferred to the winners nominated offshore bank account. Conversely, Collingwood and Essendon can then play in the Ankle Bracelet Derby with the proceeds from all inner city burglaries over that weekend used to fund a new city centre injecting room.

Most of the low hanging fruit in the raising awareness field has already been picked. Hawthorn had to go with an emergency services appreciation game where half the state's first responders troop out onto the G and give the crowd a wave whilst Essendon and Geelong play in a country game where they drag out bales of hay and parade a few sheep.

Does anyone know what time the gates open on Friday?

If he does pull the plug then it wouldn't surprise to see him at Essendon AFLW. His best mate Ben Brown is their head of development. His side of town too.

Same. He was at the food stand outside the President's Room with his little boy at the same time I was. At best he'll be running around for Casey on his return and it's a bit of a trip considering he lives in Kensington.

Not sure what you mean. Everyone plays in Adelaide. It's Gather Round. There isn't an opt out.

North are the club going cap in hand to other states looking to sell home games for coin. Send them up there. Two games in the NT and two in WA to replace the four the will lose in Hobart. Sorted.

Be careful what you wish for. If we gave up another game at the G either Carlton or Essendon would grab it and we’d find it tough to get it back again. Also, who’s to say the AFL wouldn’t still make us play at Docklands? Don’t Hawthorn also play a home game there and they already play four home games interstate?

CJ covers the ground so quickly. Like a human cheetah.

Lingers training with the defenders. Bowsa training unhindered in the same group. Also Ricky Mentha.

Glorious autumn day here at Gosch’s. I cycled down and got here early enough to see the girls train first. Looks like Paxy is going around again. Would she be the first W player to hit 100 games if she plays through? Boys on the track now.

Not a fan of this idea. Went to the game where Adelaide ran us down and Weeds [censored] the bed at the death. Nobody up there gives a rats [censored] about the MFC. Locals get handed out free red & blue merch but mostly follow the SA & WA sides we play against.

I'm on annual leave so might ride the bike down too. Haven't been to Gosch's in a while.

I'd rather we raise awareness of something that people literally aren't aware of like trypophobia.
