    I am being a bit sneaky as this is about the horse race. Here is the omen bet.

    Verry Elleegant. Colours red and blue and ridden by James McDonald. Don't say I did not tell you. 

    Nailed it! 😎

    Every time I argue with an opposition fan (unless they’re St Kilda) I know it’s inevitably going to come down to “when was the last time Melbourne won a premiership?” I’m really curious to see what they’re final argument will be now

    "You wouldn't even have a club if it wasn't for Hawthorn" seems to be quite prominent again lately.

    Also..  "you have been rewarded for mediocrity - any team could have won it with all those first round draft picks"

    Their tears are delicious!  🤣

  3. Mentioned earlier, but the main knocks on him from Saints supporters on BF is that he doesn't have a good tank and his disposal (handballing in particular) is poor.

    They also said that whilst he doesn't have the physical ability to go both ways all day, he definitely has the mindset/desire to do so. 

    So, between the ears (effort..etc) he sounds good. I'm sure our fitness team & Choco could sort out the rest.

  4. Interesting comments on him from St Kilda people at BF (which I read earlier today and now can't find comments/thread to link):

    - has the desire/mindset to be a two way player, but has never had the tank and can't sustain it

    - atrocious disposal, handballing in particular 

    - ratten doesn't rate him, and he knows it. He wont entertain any contract offers should they backflip and put one in front of him. Wants out

    Cringe when I see this in Adelaide. 
     

    That NZ dance thing too

    "That NZ dance thing" is the haka, which is a huge part of NZ culture and tradition and has been performed pre-game by the All Blacks since early 1900. 

    Please don't throw that in the same basket as the manufactured BS that Port do.  Liverpool is tolerable because that was started by the fans.

    And there it is, the first post-flag controversy!

    All the news coming out of the NRL over last 24 hours has made me think about our boys in Perth.

    I hope they are having the time of their lives, but doing so sensibly and not getting involved in the WA party scene or into any compromising situations with the locals.
