Bitter but optimistic

Robbie was a skinny bloke who played in an era of thuggery and king hits. Yet somehow .... he played a game that was both cerebral and aesthetic .

Yeah ...... and there's been more 'mail' in this thread than ever passed through the GPO !

Good work with the Brownie Box @Redleg !

You are correct EL D ! Your good old Uncle Bitter squanders his wealth on ...... shall we say ..... sins of the flesh.

Filth to go out in straight sets - by humiliating margins!

And they all hang out in a place called pandemonium. Which word , in modern usage, often aptly describes the state of our club.

As always picket - your advice is invaluable!

I am certain you are an outstanding ambassador for our fine country picket. Sir Les would be proud of you!

I would have thought that to have any credibility as an applicant one would have been in the industry for well beyond that time constraint. Therefore the unnecessary nature of the stipulation.

"Dees CEO Paul Guerra says candidates must have 7-8+ years of industry experience." Seems an oddly unnecessary stipulation!

About 8 - 10 years ago there was a poll/thread speculating on the greatest Demons. ( i searched but couldn't find it ) As I recall , the top three centered around Robbie, Neitz and Barassi. I reckon now Max Gawn must not only be added to that that notable list but ... arguably ... be placed at the top. Comments.

And Langdon should be reported for taking the Collingwood player's legs. Careless at a minimum.

I don't know much about Mentha but both AMW and Culley have shown real promise. Seeing how they develop is something to look forward to in 2026.

A memorable cultural experience I’m sure !

I’m starting to get “the vibe”. I’m currently having a pre game massage!

Well ... there are multiple choices ! So it becomes a question of what one's criteria for rating are.

I'm currently in Bangkok, so i'll find a sleazy bar to watch the game from. I'm hoping the result is such that it inspires me to a spectacular post match celebration!!!

What an unsophisticated fellow you are Stiffy ! The Manor's resident Michelin Man would never serve up such "horrible nourriture " when local delicacies such as Alpaca Bourguignon and Kookaburra under glass are available!

Woomelang was actually Woomelang/Lascelles.

Don't forget Woomelang in Geelong colours !

We showed a bit . There's hope !!!

Perhaps said partner will be waiting in breathless anticipation while clad in a cute little jeelong jumper. Number 5 on the back of course.

Geelong v Essendrug was never going to be epic but having the commentators' noses constantly up Cameron's [censored] has made it totally unwatchable. I'll find a B grade movie on Prime.

I've been a Dees supporter since I can remember. My Trident membership is coming up for its 20th auto renew. There's been some good [censored] during that time and lots of bad [censored]. But ... when it all comes down to it ... football is an industry built around a game. It's not life ! I'm sure I don't lack emotion but I just don't understand or share the feeling of bereavement that some posters pour out.

Geez the filth are miles off the pace. shiraz blunder ...... wrong thread
