North side close to MRC facilities, which could cause issues and further away from ovals. South side stand alone area away from MRC facilities and adjacent to ovals.

Agree PF, they were extremely callous in the way they treated him. Wouldn't clear him or play him.

I think many are underestimating a happy team, with more pace, playing unselfish footy, under a new Coach and coaching panel, with a more free flowing game style.

Pretty hot at the moment. The banana smoothies must be getting a good workout.

Incorrect.

Agree Danny. You could even say exactly what we would like to ultimately achieve, or are hoping for and then say of course this is subject to further negotiation with the relevant parties, but at the moment all the members are getting is crickets. This has been going on for years and while I am still confident of its success, the club has largely ignored the members for most of that time. This aspect can only be viewed as poor communication with the supporter base. The “ trust us” mantra has obviously worn thin with many supporters, over years and years of failure by several Boards, in achieving a long term state of the art home club base. A photo of a footy with fingers crossed painted on it, placed on the grass inside the race track where the ovals will hopefully be, would even be good at this time. PS. I again have a horse nominated to run at Caulfield on Saturday and if it does, I will try and hunt down a few MRC committee people for any scraps of info.

Agree that the lack of any information from the club is frustrating to say the least.

You can never have too many Lindsays.

Interesting fact for you. If we were prepared to give Tom Flower to Carlton, we would have had Wayne Johnston, the Dominator, playing for us from the start of his AFL career. Tom had played his best game for us against Carlton the season just ended and we obviously thought he would continue, plus we just couldn’t trade our best ever and most loyal player’s brother. Tom was probably an ambit try on, but we never really offered anyone or anything else and so we never got Wayne. Our own WJ identified Wayne’s ability at Prahran, after Carlton had overlooked him for two years.

I now see him playing more like a bigger Fritta, than a key forward bull. No problems with that though.

No you didn't, I have heard that before. While you are Jeffo's number one fan without doubt, I think I was just about his first, claiming he was showing good signs for an AFL career after his first few Casey games. A search of DL will confirm that. Seriously though, this looks to be his big chance after his best pre season, to cement a permanent place in the side and hopefully he grabs it.

The best home for perfection is in one’s own mind. I just made that up.

I am always happy to rehydrate and anti inflame.

Back to more interesting matters, I see that bananas are now being added to various juices. Have tasted a few and as expected they are great.

Perjury, an offence under Section 314 of the Crimes Act and Perverting the Course of Justice, a Common Law offence, are still offences open to be prosecuted without any statutory time limit and can carry serious jail time. The smell of rotting fish is all around this incident and its aftermath.

She is a very exciting player and getting a lot of attention and obviously a lot of opponents don't like it. Hope you are ok and getting better.

If you all get a chance, listen to the Bike Boy podcast, it’s mind blowing.

You mean Caitlyn Clark and yes she has copped a lot of physical attention on the court without a lot of referees’ protection.

I think you would like the Chocolate Scorched Peanut Bar.

WOW!

Yes, I am at Southland shopping centre and haven’t got lost yet, unlike my last visit to Chadstone shopping centre.

You haven't mellowed, unless it's post a glass of red. 🍷 😉

I will try and be more cranky and less optimistic in future. Given your view, I would now expect all recruiters to simply say their draftees are nothing until they have played AFL. Btw just to be accurate, I never said Matthews would be “special”, I actually said “I have a feeling we could have another good footballer in the pipeline”. Sorry again for expressing a positive hope for one of our players.

Is that a bad thing being optimistic about our players?

Yes, take a look at Lachie Neale's.
