Bitter but optimistic

No change to the goalsquare but the man on the mark has to stand a further 5 metres back and the fullback can play on without kicking to himself. Will be interesting - a sharp footed kicker in might lob one in the forward line. There will some new set plays developed over the summer

Keep potting him Chook.

What's a "tele prompter" ? Is it some sort of technological teaser pony ?

Bah!! Shylock.

"PEDO" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a gun!!!! Loved him!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know Red, I've been reflecting on this and you maybe correct. There are some unresolved matters - - The misunderstanding over the neighbour's missus. - The unfortunate accident with "The Lads" and another neighbour's prized orchids - And the ridiculous claim that I set the dog on children last Halloween - Most recently, there is the disgruntled former maid who asserts that that certain duties I required were beyond her ( or any reasonable persons) contractual obligations. A lot of fuss over nothing really but perhaps you could tidy them up for me. As you can understand, the "readies" are currently a bit short at The Manor so I'm sure a pro bono arrangement for a fellow denizen of this thread could be arranged.

It's all hypothetical at this moment 'lad ! Although some of the posts I've read seem more like hypofantasy.

Let me know if Stuie sneaks back under another name.

I see no sense in picking on people who can defend themselves! In fact it could be dangerous!!

Me too Jane ! You need characters like Bernie to stop footy becoming too sanitised. Plus he was a bloody good player!

Two lawyers in a restaurant FMD! I couldn't come up with a joke for that but here's a true story. I recently read that the major research universities are removing rats from laboratory experiments and replacing them with lawyers. They gave three reasons for this- There are more lawyers than rats Laboratory assistants grieve when a rat dies. There are some things even a rat won't do.

I watched Oscar closely at the games I attended. He has made a vast improvement and I can't believe the negative posts he still receives. He has muscled up but more importantly, has learnt to hold his position much more strongly in a contest. He has also gained confidence/assurance and has more (and better) decision making time. His kicking out of defence is generally good. The club stuck by Oscar and have been rewarded with a top defender who will get even better.

It's the itching that gets you.

I'm uncomfortable with jokes about infectious diseases

Given that we cant give a yelp until pick 33 and it looks like about 25% of our list is moving out we will need to do some fancy trading! However, we did pick up Max at about 33 I think.

That's better.

I'm opening another bottle of shiraz.

Bah to being gracious. Far better being nasty, resentful and petty in defeat. And Jane …. stick some knitting needles under your fingernails for feeling sympathy towards a filth supporter.

Who cares about eggs? It's the sperm that counts.

Is there an icy atmosphere in the @jane02 household tonight?

I wonder if @Ethan Tremblay indulged in a scat throwing celebration?

What a beautiful thing - the filth nutted in the last moments. Melbourne must learn from that. The weagles were jumped and trailed by 5 goals yet fought their way back - that's what premiers do.

I'm far from convinced but good luck to him.

Get stuck into the booze early Jane.

I don't know anything about this bloke except that he's a big bastard. Can he play forward? Can he mark and kick a goal?
