Me too. I am grand daughter sitting tonight. Agree on the smiling bit, they can make you happy even after a 31 goal loss. Her father who is a Pies member has said she can be a Melbourne fan if he has the next one. Looks like she will get her first membership next year. PS. Hope your daughter is ok soon.

Agree, that is how I am feeling. Probably need another banana smoothie. Maybe I will add vodka instead of honey. PS. I am curious to see how Butcher goes for Port today.

Ah, a new weekend and endless more crap to ignore on the other thread. What makes me happy I suppose is that this thread could go on forever whereas the other one must expire sometime. I am a simple man and easily pleased.

At 194cms and mobile we have to make him into a good player, we just have to.

I just refuse to believe that a kid who plays nearly every game at 18 in his first year, can fall apart as a footballer when he is 2 years older and a bit more experienced and stronger. There is more at play here as well as his injuries and interrupted pre seasons. Next year should be his year to grab a position and show us what he has got.

What!!!!!!!

I agree that a new Coach might be part of the answer. I just wonder if he needs a bit of love from the club. Some players go into their shell and lose confidence and feel that they are not part of the team going forwards and their game falls apart. I just get the feeling that Cale might fit into that category. A few good games to finish off the year, a new coach and new game plan and an uninterrupted pre season might be the making of Cale.

The personal abuse has kicked in again on that other thread. It is actually remarkable that this topic that we don't discuss on here has taken up so much of people's lives. Getting back to more interesting matters, I hope Sylvia is recontracted soon and that we keep Morton. I just see a big upside for Cale who has clearly had a frustrating couple of seasons.

Not sure how much Garry can achieve in his short time at the MFC, but one thing we are getting is a very experienced media performer who can answer questions directly and succintly. He is impressive in that regard and hopefully can get something positive achieved at the club.

Glad you had a great time and a break from reading or posting on that other thread.

Did you get the free desserts, what were they?

Might have one back in the side this week. PS. I know he is not really russian.

If you were watching the Geelong game on TV you would probably have 5 or 6.

I actually enjoy the odd vodka with some lime and lemonade or kahlua on ice.

I thought trolls ate mushrooms not bananas.

It was that big petrol station/food outlet on the way to Avalon.

Hangon might like this considering his avatar. I heard today that a business run by some black African men had been rung by someone from another business, who was upset with them. Without thinking he said to them "what kind of monkey business are you guys running"? It was only when the African man started threatening Racial Vilification did he realize what he had said and he then apologized and it was accepted. This is not a joke, it happened, just shows how careful you have to be. On another vein I saw bananas at $3.00 a kilo on the roadside on the way to the slaughter last week. Should have loaded up.

Sorry but I had to Bump this thread as another insidious thread has surfaced about you know who. Will it never end? Well the sharemarket has bombed much like our team, but the sun is now shining and last news item said sharemarket starting to rebound. The price of bananas has dropped so my banana smoothie should be back in town. Jaded who nearly had a meltdown is back posting with passion. We have a new temporary Coach and temporary Football Celebrity, I mean Director and our effort against Carltank I mean Carlscum was improved. We have learned that we can't kick for goal and our disposal is less than VFL standard, but as required by the temporary Coach the boys had a red hot go. The same level of effort in the remaining games could see a few wins end off the season, putting us where most would have expected at the start of the season. We will have got some more games into a lot of players and we can then look at addressing why so many of our players have not improved like Morton, Blease and all of the indigenous boys for example.

Don't drive home, catch a cab.

Anything been happening?

Shame on you, you should know better.

It will be interesting to see of the 5000 average attendance they will get, how many are free tickets.

Good gig, getting on the Footy Show as the newsbreaker and then getting a fair amount of it wrong.

Not according to Barrett.

Damien Barrett on the Footy Show said he thought Phil Davis, Rhys Palmer, Callum Ward, Mitch Clark and you know who were the five players GWS had already got, or were after.
