GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
[censored] I hate having to play in Geelong. has been an ongoing thing that all footballing ability disappears somewhere approximately halfway down the [censored] Geelong highway.

Lever Rehab in the US
other than the snow running. I'm really not seeing any value at all in the os trip. there is nothing in the rehab ex's posted that is either special or not exceptionally well covered by Australian physios and exercise physiologists. got me stuffed why spend all that cash when it all can be done locally.

Twilight/Night Grand Final
would love a night GF. the lights/fireworks/entertainment would be absolutely amazing. would be the spectacle that it should be. conversely would [censored] hate a twilight game... just stupid. that doesn't butter up for a night game it just [censored] everyone over. if they want a night game just do it and everyone will enjoy it.

TEN YEAR CHALLENGE

Training - Monday 21st January, 2019
Crossy is a pro. Rd 8-10 is a number plucked from thin air - if he returns by rd 5 it means they're geniuses. if he says rd 1 but it blows out to round 6 - obviously theres issues..... it's a blatant under promise and over deliver stand point

Bernie Vince talks up Tom Sparrow on SEN
You forgot Peter Daicos as well. the Macedonian Marvel Robbie, God and Daics got me to many games in the 80s (oh and that hawthorn outfit with Dermie dipper chief lethal rat etc.) loved being a neutral at Collingwood Carlton games back then - like Robbie time stood still when Daicos got the ball

Tom Mitchell out for the season
Depends on the break - a spiral fracture of a long leg bone takes 6 weeks to join together - double it for 'consolidation' or getting bone strength back. A transverse fracture - straight across - doubles the time frame. 12 weeks to join hence 24 weeks to get strong. so six months prior to getting up to reasonable training - how long to get 'AFL level' fit from there? probably better from a long term point of view to wrap the season up and hit pre season next year fully fit

Foxtel Sports aka Kayo
my biggest gripe with Foxtel and has always been so is that I only want certain channels. unfortunately each of those is in a different package... so you just get all of it! would much rather just get what I want and not pay for everything else. I think most people think that way and a lot of channels would die as a result.... however if they die is there really a market for them to begin with!

Foxtel Sports aka Kayo
actually looking forward to ditching foxtel for this. Bought an apple TV 4 to do it. however just going wait..... unless there is another way to get the final game of thrones season other than foxtel. then it can be ditched. 100 bucks a month back into the pocket happy days

Origins/meanings of Display Names?
not quite as obvious as it sounds .... blew the head gasket on my first car - a 1976 Corolla, by trying to catch and follow a certain bogan cult figure of the early-mid 90's whose number plate read JAKO13 while driving along the wonderful dump of the then South Eastern Arterial... was stoked at the time to see him - got the old [censored] heap of a car to 130 clicks.... and it died

Farewell Jesse Hogan
anyone else thinking Marquis de Sade whenever they see Marquis instead of Marquee. Seems very apt for the various levels of Sadomasochism going on here.... BBO may be very interested. speaking BBO - has anyone checked on him since the block renovated the Gatwick.

Jason Taylor Resume
hes a good 'gets the job done' bloke. we see people squabbling here about payed too much or didnt ask enough constantly on here and elsewhere. I say [censored] that. he gets the blokes into the club and gets our blokes to their destination of choice - unless we are dealing with [censored] (see current Freo regime...) a couple of numbers next the picks are largely irrelevant. get the right ballpark and let's make it happen. no fart arseing around not being happy with pick 7 when we after 5. I like the methodology and importantly with that so do most people - hence we now have good trading terms with most clubs and aren't seen as d8ckheads who want the earth for their current players but are only wanting to pay for passion pop while ordering French champagne for others!

New CEO - Gary Pert
I like it. he was immense for Collingwoods growth a few years back. may have left with feathers ruffled but was there for what seemed a really long time. many years of dealing in a high pressure club with high level sponsors and big dollars. the more I think about the more I like it
