  1. Farce? Sponsors include Emirates, Bankwest, ET Mining, Fugro (off shore gas), Bupa, Channel 9 and Burswood. This "farcical" organisation has us well and truly licked for sponsorship revenue.
  2. I don't post here very often, so feel free to tell me to mind my own business. However.... Mods- how on earth have you let this thread grow legs?? Surely such unfounded criticism of a club employee is against the rules? (i haven't bothered to check) Burgo is an accomplished and high respected journalist that we are lucky to have. He's not Andrew Denton and isn't pretending to be. Does the OP think we should pull out the cheque book and wheel Michael Parkinson out of retirement to do the odd 2 minute interview?
  3. took a speccy 45 from goal at the Punt Rd end and passed to Brett Lovett who was unmanned in the goal square in the middle of his 3rd quarter masterclass. that in itself was the biggest shock of the day.
  4. Tomorrow is the 20th anniversary of the great man kicking 11 goals 8 against North Melbourne. It ranks as one of the greatest individual performances by a Melbourne player in history. 22 kicks, 14 marks, 11 goals, 8 behinds, 2 out on the full, 3 Brownlow votes and a $750 fine for umpire abuse. He had 10 goals to 3 quarter time and should have ended with at least 14, as he missed some very easy shots. Here are 2 of the not so easy goals. http://www.youtube.com/embed/SKSJTLXhWtE Remember some of the greatest goals ever kicked for the club, remember the extra 5000 he brought through the gates, remember the goal celebrations. Remember the fat arse, laziness, filthy temper and tantrums as well. Never forget he was but a shooting star who never burnt as brightly as he should have. In my eyes, my favourite ever footballer x 100,000. Here's some trips down memory lane. Poljubi me u pravu ljubav Glen http://www.youtube.com/embed/QFt-QaYxV7g Eat this filth http://www.youtube.com/embed/6n-BoYQMSNI His last public appearance as a Melbourne player. Looks quite fit, but about to embark on a summer of destruction. http://www.youtube.com/embed/YVgpnLsSdXw At a time when this football club is on its knees (again), take a moment tomorrow to reflect on the greatest showman this football club has known. Happy Allen Jakovich Day and thanks to Supermercado/Demonblog for coming up with the concept. I can only take credit for the date.
  5. Grouse. all over it.
  6. If you don't already follow Cam Schwab on Twitter, sign up and follow him this afternoon and you could win a 2010 jumper signed by all the players. Punch this into your browser... http://twitter.com/CamSchwab
  7. That's just clearly not true. Lewis played Colts with Swans a few years ago, but didn't play a senior WAFL game until last year. In 2008 Lewis and his brother Graham were in Bunbury. Swan Districts brought them both up to Perth last year, housed them and got them jobs. Unless the ABC highlights package extends to the South West Football League I think you got on the bandwagon when it was already rolling down a pretty steep hill.
  8. Bit hard when Dunstall made his debut 3 years after Ablett played a handful of games for Hawthorn. and by the time Brereton kicked 5 on debut in the 1982 second semi Ablett was already back in the Drouin pub. Back on topic, weigh up the risk:reward ratio. If Thorp turns out to be a spud, well he only cost a PSD pick. If he's even servicable then he's been a bargain.
  9. I'll back myself to go head to head with you on any subject regarding our footy club you wish to choose. But today/tonight, FFS sit back, relax , crack a can and take confort that the regime you have railed against from day dot is delivering their charter. Stynes is trying to embrace every disenfranchised faction of our fractured club. What the fook are you trying to achieve hiding behind the cloak of anomynity on a boutique website?
  10. Don't promise her some Mothers Day action when you get home. trust me, you'll be knackered.
  11. Tickets for any Subi game go on sale the Monday week before the game through Ticketmaster. Essentially 2 weeks beforehand. If you are only looking for a couple of tickets you'll be fine if you book straightaway.
  12. Female. No man is touching this hair. I realised after I posted that post-Judd grandma rumours etc, my source would sound ridiculous. Hand on heart 200% true. Actually she's not a source at all. She knows nothing about football. Tyson aint going nowhere.
  13. [censored]. Stenglein is knocking off my hairdressers best friend. He aint going anywhere.
  14. Sleeve, PM PLEEEAASSSSEEE
  15. YM, you [censored] me to tears99% of the time. After reading that i'm ready to run through brick walls.
  16. HA! Saw that it was a virgin post and thought another kid big noting himself! Glad you threw in the number 16 at the end. Chop, I just PM'd you. SPill
  17. whats that supposed to mean?
  18. Not happening. On the news over here just now that Suma has turned down offers from both Essendon and Carlton and is almost certain to stay at the franchise.
  19. god no. I've been on the [censored] or sleeping for 48 hours. Just speculating kit.
  20. George, have you been down the Junction with your video camera seeing who's coming and going??!! Does Tim think this act of god is a good or bad omen??
  21. TGR will be signing up to what he calls Strawberry Fields right now. Or on the horn to Tim trying to get 'ology up and running again!!
  22. I've got a lot of respect for you H. from my observations you're not a man who gobs off without thinking first. I know you've been obsessing about this, because you're posting more than you have in 12 months. Why now, after you've called Collingwood the whole way, are you finally confident??
  23. i suspect something happened late on Friday that turned the whole thing on its head. I have no evidence, but I'm certain we had him and Collingwood, and possibly Carlton, have come back with plan b and c that has thrown a spanner in the works.
  24. gonna get a hell of a lot more work done today!
