Deebauched

A bottle of whisky and a pack of smokes at my place in Bangkok. Will follow the game on afl match centre and DL. Couldnt be bothered finding a pub that televises the game. There would be imbeciles saying ...is this rugby?(yanks). .....kiwi and Sydney bogans babbling that aussie rules is an irish game.. i dont socialise with westerners in Thailand anymore. Bogans with their 'pee nois' . Go dees!

What?

Carlton's De koning and McGovern are in the last season of their contracts. Will be interesting( Kosi Pickett) to see who stays and who leaves; if any.

Good call. Daicos among others wont be allowed to run amok like 2022. If we think other clubs have figured dees out , it'll be alot easier with the pies.

Last year she bagged MFC for getting a crowd of about 30k against an interstate side then Richmond got an even lower crowd the following week.She said nothing on footy classified of course. She did say what a great CEO Tricky Gil has been. Vomitious stuff from Caro the daughter of a Richmond FC president.

Why do you have to reserve a seat in a 100k stadium for H&A games ? Most games are played infront of crowds with many thousands of empty seats. Even docklands is rarely full. Its a corporate scam like everything else. You have to pay for something you dont need. FFS if you want to get the best seats then arrive early on gameday and pay cash! Obviously AFL doesnt like it because there isnt a commission buck in it for them and their corporate mates. I cant stand McLacklan. He wont go away. He treats the public like pesky peasants. A page right out the American corporate play book.

I dont.

I said a few weeks ago Wilson would select Richmond to win the flag. I was almost right! lol Dees first Richmond 2nd? Obviously she is trying to put the mozza on us ala 2019 season. Alot of media think signing two mids from GWS is going to thrust Richmond up the ladder, Hilarious.

Yes. Highly likely one of them will get injured or drop form. Schache has an opportunity to prove he is more than just a depth player as some call him.

According to some our team was crippled by injury yet we finished 2nd behind Geelong the highest we've finished in decades (except 2021). We beat a fired up Lions at the Gabba in the last round. I think the huge second half of the fixture ran us out of puff in Sept. We had injuries but so do other sides.

Kayne Cornes says, HI

Wasn't he a top ten draft pick? I doubt if Melbourne signed him up just for depth and win VFL games like Daw and Mitch Brown did for a number of years. Theyre hoping he can show what he's really got. Going to be an interesting season season for us.

Could almost call this thread clickbait. I thought it might be about Salem returning. Who cares about some rando sports journalist. Theyre a dime a dozen. Atleast his timing is good with Luke Beveridge giving his first media conference on Saturday week. Could be like old times.

Seems like almost half the team are up for a midfield role . Going to get as busy as Flinders st station at peak hour this season.

I thought the AFL minimum salary for senior list players was 300k +. As a premiership player with a solid future i reckon he'd look elsewhere at 250-300k. Hope he stays. Maybe 350k more realistic if Acres went to Carlton for about the same.

What would be a fair deal for Rivers as a 2nd level defender in one of the AFLs best or the best defences? 4 x 450k ---1.8mil?

Against Norff. Wait and see how he goes in the real thing.

Corporate media just love Carlton. Best players in the comp, best 18 in the AFL (sen)big premiership chance '23. Finished 9th last year.lol Oliver No1 even with a banged up hand. Martin 7 Robbo going by brand name recognition.

Forward line got some potency about it going by our score and without Fritch. There seems to be some urgency with the dees this year. They want another flag!

Makes you wonder how Melbourne would finish up if we played ALL our h&a games interstate mostly in Perth Adelaide and the Gabba. Top 4 probably. MCG is a worry.

Always seems to have an issue with his feet. Maybe not serious. Hope he's on the ground R1. Salem is a worry.

I wonder if the eagles will put on another lightning show like 2021. Cheats. You couldnt pay me to go to Perth or Adelaide. Dees will win anyway. We own Optus.

They better not be recruiting some halfwit from Sidee or dodgy American lowlife. We have our own home grown deadbeats to choose from for the CEO position.

Sounds like he copped a knock to the knee. Fingers crossed he only misses a week or two. Season starts in two weeks tonight. Lever and Salem already sidelined. [censored]!
