WC could do the same as when you're buying a house in Scotland and have sealed bids. Open them on draft night and the best bid wins.

I don't think I've come across any other professional sport where so many players are homesick for places that are an hour or so away by air or a few hours by road with exactly the same culture, food and language.

Lots of water to pass under the bridge on this one. Sydney convinced Papley to stay when it looked like he was on the way to Carlton.

Hi DJ. The ground is an hour by road from the centre of the city and judging by last years AFLW Grand Final holds around 8,000. It would be like us relocating to Casey if they decided to redevelop the G.

Guinness on tap in the bar outside the Jim Stynes Room on Level 2 of the Olympic Stand.

Would he be worth a 1 or 2 year deal if in "a purely football act" his elbow were to somehow connect with the eye socket of Maynard the next time he lined up on him?

The guy deserves respect if only for punching Gary Rohan in the mush (allegedly) during the Queensland hub.

Pretty sure she follows Essendon.

The Gills? I never knew he played for the Pikey Army. I figured it had to have been a transfer between two LOI teams. People wear tracksuits to weddings and funerals in that part of west Kent (the term chav relates to the town of Chatham right next door) so they would hold a bit of currency there. Cascarino ended up having quite a good career although he didn't have any impact at Celtic. Probably as it was slap bang in the middle of our 9 in a Row years.

PSV have always had a great scouting network and being owned by Philips used to trade for some of the best young overseas talent with electrical equipment and white goods. When the original Ronaldo ended up in Eindhoven (aka The City of Light) a set of floodlights went the other way to Brazilian side Cruzeiro. Your tracksuit story is better though.

He's been seen checking out the facilities at both Bells Beach and URBNSURF.

Sweet Jesus. Might be easier to start a thread about who’s actually staying.

Agree with all that. At Docklands in particular they always seem to be laying new patches of turf. They did it along a whole wing at Optus recently too which looked awful. The centre wicket area of the Gabba has been an issue too as the head groundsman doesn't seem to give a [censored] about AFL footy. The AFLW Grand Final was actually moved to Metricon because it was so bad one year.

Hi Jaded. I'm of course speaking about why I like that we play in Hobart. I don't think Maxy was too complimentary of the surface in our last game but North play there four times a year and I can't recollect any major injuries they've suffered over that time so I'd put it down to coincidence. By way of comparison Rick Lever's ruptured ACL and T-Mac's Lisfranc were both done at Docklands. The exact same injuries as Tommo and Petts.

I might be in the minority but I'm hoping we play down in Hobart again as it's a great long weekend. The flight is less than an hour and there's no feral opposition fan base to contend with inside the ground, unlike SA and WA away.

Things could always be worse. Imagine living in a place where Celtic have won 10 of the last 11 league titles 😩

Bears on fire.

Beautiful "football act" from Lincoln McCarthy.

LOL. Cox. What a muppet.

Has there ever been a sporting organisation associated with so many reprehensible human beings as Collingwood? From boofhead Eddie at the top right down to No 1 superfan and convicted nonce Joffa at the bottom.

You could've written the same thing forty years ago.

I think Brisbane will [censored] the bed, Collingwood will win pretty convincingly and we will all look back on a badly missed opportunity.

I think we need a projectile vomit emoji after seeing that image.

I’m not that bothered. I quite like having a whole row to ourselves in the Tridents area on a match day. Makes getting in and out for a beer very easy and short queues.

I don't see how either of the King boys solves our goal kicking inaccuracy problem.
