  1. How much charge is left in the batteries?
  2. Watershed year at the Dee’s for Dunstan? Was a great contributor at Casey and key reason for flag, and can be very proud. I like him as he is an honest footballer but can’t see him playing 1’s unless it is inside mid and both Clarrie and Vines are out/rested. From watching Casey he hasn’t improved his quick disposal like we needed him to. Gets it OK and can/will run both ways.

    Great Britain (or just Britain) is the main landmass/island occupied by countries England, Scotland and Wales which together with Northern Ireland form the United Kingdom. Wasn’t always this united…
  4. You at least got a participation award!
  5. We have the culture now, great leadership examples, and have been recruiting with character/leadership traits in mind for a good while now. While we have great understudies in our current leadership group it is possible that our next captain may emerge from the current 21-23 yo crop and surprise most of us, particularly if Gawn can stay another 3-4yrs mostly on the park.
  6. We are a broad community! I grew up in a Richmond zone and while I loved it when their players came to our school and we did drills on the oval I couldn’t stand the team. After many demons hammerings I did have a brief flirtation with Hawthorn and was known to get around in a Melbourne jumper and Hawks beanie, so I wasn’t actually in the closet. Didn’t last long and was at Waverley prelim 1987 and cried.
  7. Ben Cousins better
  8. Kosi is very special, so good already but still so much upside. I hope he is happy settled this year at/in Melbourne and decides to sign with us for as long as he wants. If he moves on I’ll be shattered but at least he won’t be lost to the AFL. I still enjoyed watching the Wiz at Freo, even against us. None of us saw enough Liam Jurrah or Allen Jacovich (very different circumstances) though.
  9. Agree. Round 9 WCE and 10 Nth Melbourne were early and missed opportunities to rest key veterans/bad niggles.
  10. Adelaide catch and release
  11. Yes some ruckman have a few dominant seasons but Cox had a decade of dominance.
  12. Butchered that one
  13. Yes I think Jacko helped turn sport into entertainment. His antics were also a distraction to opponents. Genuine footballer and clown.
  14. Not common but not rare. Often 45 rpm which gave more volume/better treble. I remember Billy Idol had one ‘Got to be your (12 inch) Lover’!
  15. 10-0 start Clarry signing, Gus signing kosi show in Alice both Brisbane wins and Freo away win Max’s leadership Casey and ALFW seasons and cups Naarm
  16. Couldn’t be prouder of this guy. A good reminder to really connect with those around you to stay OK/help them stay OK.
  17. Yes was PP was in the crowd disgusted. Basically assault.
  18. Here is a Tom Marvolo Riddle for you all - scum tallyhos
  19. Might be the NZ pro cyclist with EF?
  20. Leg I didn’t mention T$$ S$$$$$ just his namesake but your thread your rules so happy to take my punishment.
  21. Tom Scully the 2nd

    RIP Big Barry. One of my all time favourite oppo players. Very hard to shift from under the ball, could handball a mile and was an ungainly but effective kick.
