  1. This is true, NC. Either they weren’t regularly updated as to their performance and therefore this has come as a shock. Or they were regularly updated but didn’t/couldn’t see the signs of what was to come. These are boys in their early 20s. The club psychologist or well-being officer or whomever is tasked with looking after players’ mental health should have known and would have the wherewithal to make this outcome not as hard hitting as it clearly is.
  2. Of course that’d be infinitely worse. But not having even an inkling of what’s about to befall these boys is pretty harsh.
  3. You can’t tell me players aren’t given some sort of idea beforehand, in particular when they’re to be jettisoned. From an outsider’s pov (which we all are) this is how it goes (bolded, above) but as is the case with everything to do with footy, a lot happens about which we know nothing. The very fact that Callum was shocked to find he’s been delisted says it all, imo. I’m no psychologist but I think in this day and age in these situations young players are handled with kid gloves.
  4. The Moose!!!! A very deserving winner ❤️💙
  5. Unfortunately Less Diana, more Camilla. 🙁 PS: I’m just glad no one has said ‘who’s gonna take Bluey home tomorrow night?’ since that was my nickname for years and the only one taking me home tomorrow night will be the cabbie. 😁
  6. Should be all good, PF. Apparently when they heard I was attending they ordered extra security. But thanks for the offer to chaperone. If I ever did need chaperoning I couldn’t imagine anyone I’d rather be forcibly restrained by than you and Uncle. 😁
  7. I’m so excited for tomorrow night. I’ve never been to one before. I just hope I don’t show all the WAGS up!!!😂
  8. Casey’s Premiership Cup… After the siren the MC announced Casey’s Premiership win “… after waiting 23 years” since the last one. I was taking the son of a DA OG onto the field for kick-to-kick. I heard him say (under his breath) “pfft, 23 years? That’s nothing! Try 57!” The kid’s NINE YEARS OLD!!!! 🤣
  9. This is Collingwood we’re talking about. The club which does this type of thing… https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/teams/collingwood-magpies/afl-news-2022-callum-brown-speaks-on-collingwood-magpies-delisting-exit-meeting-blindsided-interest-from-rival-clubs/news-story/8c011fdaec798c977abb6047842cb945 This is how they treat the sons of a Legend of the Club. Fair enough, delist them if you must, but at least afford them the dignity of a heads up.
  10. There’s No T$, but this is definitely BS… YOU HAD ONE LINE TO CHECK, PROOFREADER!!!
  11. No direct assumptions, but implications GALORE. Of course no one is gonna explicitly state as much, for to do so would be an invitation to be howled down or even have one’s post deleted, and rightly so. But the implications are there and they’re many.
  12. You realise you are on Demonland, right Bingers? And yes, you just said that out loud. FWIW, I believe you’re NEVER too old for festivals. I still go to festivals and concerts, and because I’m generally with friends half my age, I always end up in the mosh pit. Good times.
  13. And while executing the menacing power stance, little did they know that losing the grand final wasn’t the worst thing that was about to befall them.
  14. Should be Adelaide - 2017 into 2018(?)
  15. I wanna know where he got his jeans from. They’re so cool. Let’s get him.
  16. Another winning smile… He had his own personal cheer squad at the GF. His fam and friends all wore custom-made “Moose” hoodies and boy, were they raucous! It was awesome. ❤️💙
  17. Soz, I don’t have a sense of humour anymore, remember? 😉
  18. That interview is interesting. But it’s what follows that’s THE BEST to watch. 😍
  19. @Demonland Andy, could you please amend the incorrect spelling of Fremantle in the OP? It shouldn’t matter, but it does. 😁
