I wonder if we would even have this thread, if our idiot recruiting manager Prendergast, had taken Talia as everybody expected, instead of Jordan Gysberts, in a mind boggling, stupid pick, of Cook and Toumpas proportions. ( Yes I know he didn't pick Toumpas ). Oh and BTW, I am positive if he had, we could guarantee that we would have played finals this year, as he would have stopped at least two goals, that we allowed this season, if not have won us a close game outright. Thanks Barry, you butchered this club.

I have joined BSA. Banana smoothies anonymous. Hopefully I can stay on the wagon for a while and keep losing those banana kilos. Was nearly sent into apoplectic shock when I saw that skinhead number 9 for the Giants on tv last night.

Do you like him.? What is your opinion, do you think we should try and get him? Do you think he would be in our best 22? Do you think we could let Garland go if we got Lever? Do you think he would wear number 6 if he came to us?

Oh yes you would. Let's see, how about Dangerfield or Dusty for Watts?

Did you know that a Rockmelon is a Gourd?

I was told Kelly knocked back North as he saw them as struggling in the next few years. If he views them like that and presumably his manager too, they may have gone off the radar as a destination club and money alone may not get top players there.

Might be, but it will be the starting point in the Lever trade.

They would have more luck training down an igloo in the sahara.

Well I hope it didn't, whatever happens. Maybe he spoke to Judd's grandmother.

Loose lips. That is a pity if true, we have been pretty good lately at keeping things in house.

When have I heard that before?

Better build a concrete fence as they have broken too many.

Maybe the players will rebuild the house, while they are attempting to rebuild our trust in them.

See my post before yours.

Good luck to them trying as the house was demolished last saturday.

As has been posted by a few others, we should now avoid recruiting any depth players. Any trades or FA's should be seen as best 22 or ignored. The draft can give us more depth players, being the ones that don't quite make it, added to those we retain.

Can assure you Moonie, that I will treat the summer training posts, articles and photos, as BB described in the post below yours.

I know all that and obviously appreciate the important things in life, but as you say and I am not even sure why, a week later, but I am still really p-ssed off with the players and coaches.They let the fans and themselves down and wasted a golden opportunity to have some finals experience, give everyone some reward for the rotten years, enhance sponsorship, membership, fixture and recruit opportunities, but they just blew it big time. That still really annoys me.

Can't wait for the training the house down crap to start again.

Don't know why I let this team upset me so much. 11 years of crap and finals there for the taking and we dish up that pathetic first quarter and only a slightly better rest of the game, against a depleted young side playing for nothing other than some pride. Then again we probably have none. I should have stuck to banana smoothies and forgot about the footy.

Good starts to games.

Bombers will re sign him.

That should be the sole mantra for trades, unless they are seen as a developing young player.

That's true, my gripe is he played us and other clubs, when he was already signed with Carlton mid year. You can take that to the bank.

Never to us. It would have been hard to get him that year, as he had already committed to Dick Pratt, before he pretended he was still deciding which club to go to and wasted our time looking at our facilities and discussing his move. Not my favourite footballer.
