I know 'runner up' .. doesn't cut the mustard apparently 🙄

Was only talking with his Aunt earlier today. I even said I hope he gets a block of games. Now... 😒 hmmm Kinda feel for the lad. He has improved. He's quite comfortable in the middle. He has footy nouse ,good disposal. I would have thought that might work in his favour under the new regime. I'm obviously wrong

You would be well aware that King has spoken with Rivers ( as you've noted he's very big on that kind of communicating ) 🤔I can only think whatever is going on makes perfect sense to those involved. On the flip side.... here's your chance Paddy 😉

Prescient 👏👏👏

Even Roo would have to look up 🤣

Cheers...lifts a bit of the fog 👍

Meanwhile over at Princes Park

In the absence of any real knowledge or explanation about how Rivers comes to be ommitted I can only surmise there is indeed a very good reason. ( we just don't know it ) Fair to say Trent got King hit...

Dropping Rivers 🤔🤔 Is this about sending a message perhaps ?

You would like to think there may be some experimentation throughout this season. We aren't holding up a cup this year. It's got to be about bedding in a system and mindsets. Maybe seeing who/what works where etc Would love to see some outside the box thinking implemented by the FD. Just have to wait and watch 🤷

If a little knowledge is a dangerous thing... excessive is positively brain numbing. As the Trivago bloke might suggest....do I really have to say it again ?? We are not talking anything big. It only supports the turf above it. The Engineering of this is at the lower end of anything hard. Seriously. Bog standard cut and cover. Done and dusted.

When you dismiss all the noise its really one of but a very few realities that we can hang a hat on. We are still at Goschs We would like to develop a Home at Caulfield We are NOT at Waverley That's about it

I understand the desire for a proper home. God knows it's long overdue. Do you seriously ( not sarcasm ) think The Tip at Dingly drags the elite there ? Waverley would not particularly advantage the players . It might have some allure for Admin. Admin dont take the field so they must logically come after the needs of the players ? Is Gosch’s ideal. Of course not. But imho its not driving talent away. I would think ( pure supposition) that by this season's end we'll know what were doing. Without doubt the wait is frustrating. I don’t for one second give any legitimacy to the rubbish the likes of Betsy propagate but there is obviously some impediment currently. ( and strangely i dont think it's money ) But here we are wanting and waiting. Still. I find it curious that we have looked at Waverley, and quite seriously yet we dont seem as keen as some suggest. Or we'd be there. We're not. There must be elements that the club understands and gives weight to that tip the scales towards staying put for the present. 🤔🤷

Torn. Like to see Bill get a few runs...just to know. Like to see Trelly build 🤷

Chicken ??

Like your thinking...but No private school is going to do that. If i have to explain why...you dont understand their property strategy 😉 MFC needs to develop their own home.

That stops us training ? Get your hand off it ffs

Yeah.. a hoot Care to illuminate.? Share what you know perhaps ? Where are we ...same ol same ol Otherwise..maybe stfu

Are we non functional ? Coffey was full of 💩 We still train, etc. Some things are more idyllic in want than actually necessary.

Not minding that selection. Go us !!

The context to consider..possibly... Hawks had Glenferrie . Now I have mixed memberances of that place... but I did love the old suburban feel. [censored] of a place though. I get why they left THERE. Waverley undoubtedly better for them. Would it really be THAT much better for...us ? Just to get Admin all cozy ? Really 🤷

Ive given this some considerable thought. How much weight anyone should apportion... well... I understand the attraction of 'all under one roof' But do we simply go 'somewhere' because it might afford that ? Do we stay put until our preferred choice comes to fruition ? ( 🤔 if ) Context is both a wonderful thing and really the only metric. Waverley offers something.... and yet is very much a compromise. Goschs... certainly not ideal.... not totally unworkable either. But Gosch’s does provide something .. accessibility. The more I think about it the more Waverley is a pig in a poke. I can see why the Sqawkers left. In the classic vernacular...is Gosch’s 'broke' ... does it need fixing ? Ideal ? NO.. Broke ? No... it's effective. Thinking.....🤔🤔🤔 Do nothing 'cept push forward to Caulfield Just my 5c

It's a beautiful thing 'the closeness' .. by far the very best 'closeness' we've ever had !!

That was then... This is now .... May the belief be strong with the boys !!

Im neither disbelieving nor disputing your information. I'm just amazed.
