Still on names (well, I am anyways)… Wayne Milera. I reckon he’s the only Wayne currently playing because who’s calling their kid Wayne in the last 40 years? Not too many. Not as many as those who’ve chosen Bailey, Lachie, Zach, Taylor, Darcy, Jake, Harry and variations of Kai/Jai/Shai.

Fun fact: Riley Thilthorpe’s nickname is Lisp

Wow. The Toiges. I wonder if they can sustain this for the whole game.

And the umpires didn’t ruin those last few minutes. They let play continue which was great.

Handy point 👋

You could’ve just bumped it, Deeves. You didn’t have to change your name 😁

Any excuse to watch this

Alex Pearce is a close second. One example: Rory Lobb’s first game as a Bulldog, in the centre circle before the game even started Pearce instigated a roughing-up session on Rory and of course the other nearby Dockers joined in. What sort of an example is that to set for your young players?

Some of the DA will be watching the match at Brewmanity (Neita’s pub), but not many of them. Idk if there’s any other ‘watch parties’ organised.

… aaaaaand Matildas it is

Of all players to mic up… Jeremy Howe. 🤣 He said a grand total of four words in that clip.

Yep, we were talking about that today. It will be tight but we’ll do it. Some will leave the M match early because we need a banner crew and guard of honour at Whitten Oval. Thank goodness it’s at Whitten Oval and not Casey. Even when we have to split in two we always have enough people and props for both. When Casey won the premiership in 2022 half of us were at Ikon and half were at Casey for the W match on that same day.

You know who I wanna see win? Injuries. I wanna see injuries win. Not life-threatening nor even career-ending injuries and not necessarily season-ending. Just injuries that will have Collingwood players sidelined for KB. Is that too much to ask?

It’s not just you. For a while there it looked as though it was raining heavily such was the quality of the vision.

The Dees player’s head can’t be seen therefore a helmet can’t be seen. But his jumper number starts with a 1

I’d take the job in a heartbeat! They wouldn’t even have to pay me, except maybe chip in for some of the airfare for interstate matches. This morning some of the players asked me if I’d be in Alice and/or said See you in Alice which made me sad coz I can’t go. They have a chartered flight there and Clarrie said I’m small enough to be squashed into the overhead compartment, then Sharpie said if he didn’t pack any belongings I could go in his backpack. I laughed… on the outside 😭

You know other fans who’ve been told by Ardu at Gosch’s that her family is staying put in Melbourne? And these other fans post this on here? Funny that, I don’t remember reading any such posts.

Well, I do.

The question really is WHY did Cal say it (if he even did say it in the first place). And the answer is simple… good ol’ clicks and lots of ‘em. I don’t recall anyone else reporting similar. Only a fool would believe that Cal Twomey was the sole person who knew Kozzie was trying to get to Freo on the final day of trade. It’s laughable.

Same here, Kat. However, that’s not the point Greg Schneider was making. He was clearly taking a potty at me, unless there’s someone else on here who has shared what they’ve talked about with Ardu at training. Again, this is the very reason I no longer relay any conversations on this forum, apart from S&Gs. It’s so disheartening to read these thinly veiled accusations of fabrication (either I’m a liar, or Ardu is). I’m so over it.

Vines took care of the don’t argue

Harvey Wallbanger and I were just speculating as to Bill possibly flying to Sydney to play for Casey. Maybe he will replace Vines 🤷‍♀️

They spoke for quite some time and Bill didn’t look upset. In fact, he beamed and threw me one of these 🫶🏼 on his way back to the rooms. Love that kid.

Marty trained well and has been told he’ll be playing with Casey next weekend. The AFLW fixture is expected to be released this afternoon. I think you’re right about Bill. I saw Richo having what looked like a serious talk with him away from everyone else after which Bill went back to the rooms.

Never! Steve is one of the very few Dees diehards among the staff. He’s barracked for Melbourne his entire life therefore he hates Essendon and Collingwood just like we all do 😁
