Bowsa more than an outside chance! He told me himself that he’s definitely coming back vs Carlton. And it’s not as if I asked him. I just told him I hope to see him back out there soon. He said, “You will. Next week.” I said, “Our Carlton match?” He said “Yep!” 😁

Everyone is saying Shane needs a full game at Casey before playing in the 1s. I’m no expert but he’s ready now. I watched him play in the Casey match and I’m convinced they pulled him off at 3/4 time coz they’d seen enough. He ran around the boundary to warm down and as he ran past I didn’t say anything since I didn’t know the reason why he was done for the day. But he grinned and waved at us (I was with DA friends who sponsor him) and seemed really happy. So now I’ve got a feeling it’s his time to show everyone what he’s got 👊🏼

He went back to the rooms very early in the session. Was hardly even worth him coming out at all. And he looked very deflated. Not happy at all. 😢

Yes, both were in full training. Bowey is definitely available for our Carlton match. Melksy not far off. Both trained really well.

I’ve mentioned this before but in December he told me he’ll be back “for the back end of the season.” Then about six weeks ago I asked him if that had changed. He said it has and that he’ll likely be back earlier than anticipated. I said, “Maybe after the mid-season bye?” He said “Yes, maybe even just before the bye.” I haven’t asked him since then because I don’t wanna annoy him (I know right - that ship’s sailed 🤭) but Chocco told me today that they’re really happy about how much “ahead of time” he is.

No, but I’ll definitely find out. 😁Interestingly, our #31 isn’t backward in coming forward when it comes to smart-mouthery. He’s the first to admit it. An example of what he says to oppo? I wouldn’t know since he won’t even tell his parents. 😅

Update: it’s his natural hair colour! I told him people pay a lot of money for hair that colour and he’s lucky he gets it for free. And… wait for it… he didn’t just smile, he grinned! And now I’m not sure what planet I’m on. PS: can confirm he has teeth.

Bowsa is a cert for our Carlton match!!! He told me not to tell anyone, my mouth said OK but every other part of me said Do you even KNOW who you’re talking to???

Bowsa is doing everything the others are doing. His body language and demeanour are totes different from how they’ve been of late. You could see from a mile away how dejected he was. Today however, he’s smiling and seems so refreshed. The four days off have benefited everyone it seems. The energy and enthusiasm is off the charts. Spargipants just jogged past me and smiled. Ima take a pic and send it to ‘Paranormal Caught On Camera.’

I’m glad you’re here, Kev. I was dreading any questions that are footy-related. Haircuts? I’m ya gal. But footiness? Not so much.

Chocco has a group of them practicing marking. He bellowed, “Don’t go backwards against the flight! Keep your effing feet on the ground!” I have nfi what that means but I figure someone on here might.

Chin with knee bandaged running around the boundary. As is Vines, but without the bandages. 😁

Cool, an easy question. No cap. Same red jumper as everyone else

I tell you what… Melksy can’t come back soon enough. They’re doing defending drills. One-on-one running towards each other, one with ball in hand and being stopped by the other with minimal physical contact. Melks is fully participating but also giving tips to Pup and Sesto. The respect he commands is amazing.

Bowsa is training with the main group Doesn’t look hampered at all.

SpargiPants is peroxide blonde. WCW… delivering the news that matters.

Melksy doing footy wrong…

If anyone is venturing out here today, bring an umbrella. And be prepared to share it with someone who stupidly left hers at home. 🙄 TIA!

Oh there’ll be pics. There will be so many pics you’ll need three lifetimes to see them all 😁

I’d go one further and say “Not yet good enough for AFL” bearing in mind the kid’s 18yo. But maybe that’s just me. 🤷‍♀️

The point of this thread isn’t the possible acquisition of SvR. It was never about SvR at all. Rather, it was created as an opportunity to disparage BBB, under the amateurish guise of interest in a replacement for him, as evidenced by the OP, and confirmed without a hint of ambiguity by the now-deleted post overnight (yes, I’ve read it, thanks to a good friend, and I truly appreciate the awesome ppl who who reacted/replied). Needless to say, BBB is a bazillion times the person a gutless online sniper is.

Sesto is rapidly growing in confidence as well. It shows in everything he does. Thanks for posting this. I saw this amazing goal on the day but not clearly. Massive thumping kick from outside 50 and a great display of physical strength to shake off his opponent. That’s what you wanna see!

Watching DOGga kills me too, but for a different reason. 🤬

It would be wonderful to be the first to beat Geelong this season.
