I’d have to fire up the DeLorean and go back 50 years, right?

Dunstall (prematch): “This game is huge!” Huge? It’s 10th vs 14th. Why can’t a game just be a game? I’d love to see a round where all nine games are just games.

Wrong thread, PF. Maybe you could start a new thread called something like We Are Sooooo Dead

Obviously?

I just watched the ch. 9 news sports report and I’m happy to announce young Trent the reporter lives to see another day 😝

I never believe a word that grub says, why would this be any different?

It was fascinating to watch Clarrie “tagging” Bill Laurie. He was all over him the entire time, even when the ball was nowhere near them. It actually got to a point where Bill was genuinely [censored] off, such was Clarrie’s very close and prolonged “attention.” Speaking of Bill, I wished him good luck for Sunday. He said “I’m not playing.” He said he’s an emergency which is why he knows he’s not playing. I’m wondering how these things go: would he have been told he’s not playing? He seemed confident that he won’t be used.

No soccer ball today. I asked the reporters what the focus of their reports would be. They said they just film the boys and use the footage for whatever story may unfold throughout the day or for a current story. In this case, the footage will likely accompany the report on what Goody said in his presser when replying to a question about Dogga.

… oh, and the boys are training. No round balls today. According to Trent, the ch. 9 reporter, Morris stills claims he’s a Dees supporter

I know right?! We were surprised the Club allowed it.

Ch. 9 and ABC are here and of course I made my feelings known to them. 😅 I told the ch. 9 reporter I’ll be watching the news this evening and the report best be favourable. Was gonna Willy Rioli him but it wasn’t necessary, he complied. The ABC reporter and I chatted at length. She previously worked at ch. 9 and we discussed a certain ch. 9 sports reporter who claims to be a Dees man but doesn’t act like one. Very interesting convo.

The main takeaway for mine is that the incredible facility out at Casey includes indoor kicking areas. Take note, anti-soccer ball brigade! 😅

The Demon Army will be in Section 213 in the Eastern Stand, next to The Verandah area.

Great to see the Hawks deflated for the usual reasons but mainly coz I hate the thought of Nick Watson being happy.

Fully agree, Ang. Except for the bit about you being a grumpy person. 🙂

I’ll be at all three of them. The good thing is they’re all early/mid afternoon time-slots which allows same day FIFO meaning no accommodation costs 🥳

Three interstate games in a row 👎🏽

No Thursday or Friday nights for us

Rounds 16 - 23

Rest In Peace, Wallsy. Thanks for the wonderful memories 💔

This week’s banner will say… GIVE IT YOUR ALL WITHOUT REGRET ANOTHER TRIP WE WON’T FORGET TRIP is in a different colour. Of course, by TRIP we mean our trip to Brisbane, not something that happened during our match last week which went unpunished 😉

Spot on, FG 👍🏽

More specifically, it’s the mind-numbing repetition that drives me nuts. Eg. We went out in straight sets in ‘22 and ‘23. This is repeated at every possible opportunity, and if no opportunity presents itself? Hell, let’s mention it anyways. It’s also the contamination of threads like the NON-MFC thread. Every single week someone has to pot Goody and/or our club in this thread despite it being NON-MFC. I choose to avoid certain threads because I don’t wanna read such posts; that’s my prerogative. But it’s becoming increasingly harder to avoid when it seems every thread is fair game. Edit: the irony’s not lost on me. I’m actually posting in the Time To Go Goody thread. Dunno how I landed here but am proud to have weathered it 😅

😘
