You're kidding! Is that right? No Collingwood player in the Team of the Century?? That's positively GOLD if true...!! Love it!! And, back on subject, yes, let's get those deserving Melb names into the Hall of Fame, where they belong! Go Dees!!

Got the Hotdog stand for another year, huh? LOL

Oh, rats! And there I was, about to start the rumour you had been signed to replace Gary Jnr next year...!! (LOL)

Ah! My kingdom for a hyphen! That word is a dandy, eh?! "resign", and he's outa here. "re-sign", and he's stayin'! Gotta love the English language! (Sorry, PM! Not meaning to have a go...!)

On the contrary! Every relevance in the world. We got pick 11 (Gysberts) because McLean departed the MFC, and pick 11 was the payment. Relevant. And, great work by the MFC...!

Nothing but rumour-mongering! The kid's injured, and takes the opportunity to fly home for a day or two and catch up with family & friends. So what??

Yes, fabulous debut. I'm just SOOOO looking forward to seeing him going head to head with one B. McLean next week! And the Gys will even be running around in Brock's old number 5, just to really rub it in! Love it!! Go Dees!

Agreed. No team who has ever played in Darwin has won the following week. And, to have Geelong at Geelong in that follow-up game... However, I don't think Bailey and the team will disregard the game. Rather, they will note it down as another valuable learning experience for the young and developing team. Important lessons will have been added to the Bank as we move forward toward our new, glory days, which undoubtedly will come. Go Dees!!

Yes, an excellent assessment of a wonderful debut! Once again, a big tick to our recruiters. They certainly seem to have done very well over the last couple of years. Also have to chuckle at the obvious sense of irony with whoever it is withn the MFC who decides what numbers each new kid will wear. We got Grimes for Johnstone, and Jack now runs around in Travis' old #16. We got Gysberts for McLean, and now he is running around in Brock's old #5. Love it!! And, yes, I reckon Gysberts has to be in real contention for this week's Rising Star nomination... Go Dees!!

Hey, Stalwart! Just think how it will feel if we actually pull off a famous victory, tomorrow?!! Would love to be in your shoes then! Go Dees!!

Scarlett out for Geelong is also a GREAT bonus to our Forward line...!

Back in my day, if I wanted to follow someone it would be on my bicycle! And, it would be called "stalking"!! LOL (Yep! You guessed it! Another slow day at the office...!)

Thanks, Redleg! You're a scholar & a gentleman! "Earth to Schwabby, are you receiving your tweats??"

Stuff the 'Pies! Just as long as the same treatment is given to the Gabba prior to our July 31 match!

Redleg, now you're toying with me! How would an old Fart like me know how to ask someone to show me something on their Twit?? Maybe he could just flash it up on his fancy whiteboard next week...? (Yeah. I know. I'm hopeless...! LOL)

Am I missing something here? They want to keep it under wraps for now, and yet, it seems, half the members on this forum have already seen it, and it's even been trundled out at a breakfast function! Maybe I'm just jealous...!

Yep. Think he might be "Gawn" for this year...! LOL

Spot on! But, just so pleased for Beamer that he gets to take on his old team in his 100th! Go Beamer! Go Dees!!!

If that's correct, he would have been stupid to NOT appeal!

From what I saw on TV, we definitely seem to have had the bulk of the local support at the ground. Somehow, the "Dreamtime Game" seems more appropriate in Darwin than at the "G", anyway! Let's hope it becomes a permanent fixture!

Agreed! He was a good pick up. Certainly no "dud"!!

Overall, an excellent post, Burn in Hell. But, like others here, can't agree with your Warnock comment. He was out with general soreness. apparently needed a rest and, due to the match ups, last Sat night was the game he got his rest. He's become our super Mr Reliable down back, and is crucial to our backline going forward.

Great to hear Beamer's contesting it! Just hope good sense will prevail at the Tribunal, and he gets to really serve it up his old club in his 100th!!

Agreed! Did you see how fired up he was after kicking one of his goals? There's no doubting he is cherishing his elevation back into the team, and super determined to hold his spot and vindicate his high draft pick. And, what about that lightning quick gather and handpass to a player in the clear?!! I reckon the kid has what it takes. Great to see!

Fair enough. Sale was where I grew up. Been on the Gold Coast since '82...
