Except he DIDN’T lose the players last year. Nor has he lost them now. He likely won’t lose them anytime soon. This isn’t directed just at you but for anyone calling for Goody to be sacked… if he is sacked, it WON’T be because of how the players feel about him and that’s a fact. Also, call for his head all you like but be careful what you wish for. If Goody is sacked we may need to prepare for the absence of Clarrie and Kozzie coz make no mistake: he is like a father to them both. For those who will predictably say that’s not what coaching’s all about… you may be right. But what I’m telling you is right or wrong it will happen.

Nibs left because he and in particular his partner needed to be close to their family for personal reasons. Nothing to do with Goody. Clarrie didn’t want to leave but met with Geelong when he heard that one person (who’s no longer at our club) was enquiring about a trade to Adelaide. Again, nothing to do with Goody. Tracc may have wanted to go at some stage, and If he did it was reportedly to be part of a bigger club and/or because of the mismanagement of his KB injury. Yet again, nothing to do with Goody. Kozzy wants to leave? If he did want to leave the reason would be homesickness as has been reported ad nauseam. Yep, you guessed it: nothing to do with Goody. Fritsch is sick of being there? In short… No, he’s not. Not only is he not sick of being there, he loves being there and doesn’t wanna be anywhere else. Nothing to do with Goody, nothing to do with anybody actually since it’s simply untrue.

Bill Laurie has been pulled out of the Casey match and is heading to Marvel as an emergency

Bill Laurie pulled from the match to be taken to Marvel as an emergency

Beautiful night last night and the roof was closed. It was one big communal sauna. Had to go outside at the breaks coz it’s nice to be able to breathe unlabored. 🥵 Anyhoo that was last night. Today is a new day but yeah, the roof will still be closed 😅 We’ll be in aisle 1. Anyone with GA tickets please come and sit in aisles 2 & 3 so as to create a sea of red and blue. ❤️💙 The mighty Dees by Ricky Mentha III (39)!

It’s worse than that: took my niece down to meet Catman and now I’m sitting in their cheer squad 😳

I’m off to Marvel tonight with my niece who’s followed in my footsteps and declared her love for a team other than Carlton, except she goes for Geelong. 😭It’s me and her against the fam. 👊🏼 Now I have to pretend I want Geelong to win 🤢

🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 ESSENDON 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 MASSIVE LOLZZZ 🤭

It’s from you, so I KNOW it’s a compliment ❤️

Marvel just announced that aisles (bays) 2 - 8 are general admission (Bourke St. end). Our cheer squad will be in aisle 1

That Charles, who rarely smiles, actually laughed. Granted it wasn’t a guffaw, it was a little hehe, but it’s a laugh nonetheless.

It actually is gaining traction. These things take time. I know you don’t approve of it because it’s Mitch Marsh’s nickname (different sport but whatevs) but it’ll catch on in time.

I told him this, that Dwayne Russell kept calling him the Bull and he said, “Nooooooo!” Then he told me I need to tell the commentators it’s The Bison. He must think I have access to everyone, like I’m Andrew Dillon or something. 😂

You really didn’t miss much. Some were only out there for 10 mins. Marty Hore, for example. He said it wasn’t worth putting his boots on since that took longer to do than the actual “training.” 😅

The Bison wasn’t down in the dumps at all, despite greeting me with, “I was dropped.” He said he got good feedback from the coaches and that made him feel better. He said the decisions they make are always explained really well and because of that he’s not too down, and that he can’t wait to go again.

Spargipants looked happy. Or, as happy as he can possibly look. He looked relaxed, too. The mood was very upbeat and playful.

SpargiPants was coming across from the rooms with about a dozen or so of the boys and I greeted him with, “Hey Charles! Congratulations and good luck with your first game back!” He said, “Thanks.” Then I said, “Now don’t [censored] it up!” The boys all laughed, and while I don’t have photographic evidence to back it up… Charles laughed too! I do have witnesses though, which is good because who’s gonna believe it happened?

The players clearly DGAF…

This is what greets one on approach to Gosch’s this morning… 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

For anyone wondering if old mate Nathan Williamson (umpire #22) is officiating at our match having done so at last night’s match… breathe easy, he’s not. Here’s the schedule… https://aflua.com.au/umpire-appointments/

On June 16th last year my landlord put my rent up by the maximum allowed. On June 17th this year - the very first day possible - he’s raising it again, and again by the maximum allowed. I don’t barrack for Collingwood so what’s his excuse??? 😭

Nah she’s a living breathing person. Goes to every training session at Crannie as she calls it coz she lives up the road in Franga as she calls it. I call it Frankghanistan, but I live in St Albans (or Snorbs as I call it) so I can’t talk. 🤣 While she’s there she sends me detailed reports but asks me not to share most of the info because she’s hella superstitious and truly believes it will mozz players 🤷‍♀️

[censored] it all

That’s it. G’night all 👋
