so if the greens beat labor, that will just be more incentive to dan to make it happen?

i thought the libs weren't putting up a candidate in that state electorate

When the melbourne cup becomes a best of three races, then it might be time to discuss it

alarmist politics, left of stalin?............are you confusing me with another poster perchance?

i certainly can't see him taking the role of pavlich as freo dream of he may have the football talent of pavlich but not his other attributes

bad choice of word (victim) then. "suffering the consequences of his actions" would be more appropriate

demoted 10 places on jumper...he's gawn

oops sorry... you're correct dw. i meant to say perpetrator. put it down to a senior brain fart

It's sad when the meaning of english words get expanded and twisted to fit whatever the latest liberalist agenda of the day is gaff is not a victim. he is a protagonist just having to deal with the consequences of his unsocial and stupid actions next we will call criminals victims because they have to do a stretch in the big house

here's one out of the nostalgia bag for ernest................. seeing the thread title with "be like max" reminded me of the old days when we had snail mail and people actually wrote letters. a lot of wags used to write witticisms and acronyms on the back of the envelope. the one i remember was hey mr postie don't go slow be like elvis and go man go

The Duke of Kent..........says it all really

also got a lot to do with kick:handball ratio

king gee and chisholm are casey demons sponsors, mac. see http://www.melbournefc.com.au/casey-demons

what happened to him do you think, red? was he carrying an injury or something. he's not normally that bad

and hwfua

i think that was the point, duh

but most of all, ernie.................i miss the daisycutter(stab kick) and the drop kick..........but only by those who had the skill

i miss the players on the bench sitting there in their magnificent blue dressing gowns

ask a mod (nicely) to do it for you

next you'll be telling us the catholic church is just a business, smokey ?

i understand the afl is obsessed with profit, it is self evident. the afl was originally setup with the agreement (and behest) of the clubs because the individual clubs could never agree on most issues and they needed an organisation which could fairly look after the interests of all clubs, and grow and protect the sport. it is a not-for-profit organisation that wasn't specifically setup just "to maximise profits". however, the afl has over time more and more put the pursuit of profits as its highest priority and often only played lip service to the interests of the lesser successful clubs, or the fairness of the competition

it's only 'as simple as that' if you see the only goal is to make money, smokey. i would suggest that many, if not most, supporters of what was once a sport may have other priorities

yeah, second favourite team my big hairy arzz and ernie if bruce is such an expert on the statistics and facts, let him come up with some hard evidence to prove his statement. until he does i'll see such statements as bruce just sucking up to the establishment (again)

well you know, ernie, one doesn't necessarily have to sheet all the blame onto one single person. that's the easy and lazy way to see things, personally i see see a number of people from that era who must share at least some of that blame we can all agree however that the club across the board was a shambles and very few club administrators covered themselves in any glory
