  1. Howe comee 'mushy-[censored]' ise censorede whene it'se juste ae worde meaninge crape withe ane e one thee ende ?e
  2. Once again I find myself gravitating to this erudite thread when the rest of the world turns to mushy [censored]. Just read the last 3 pages of insight laden verbosity, but it's a wonderful distraction from reality. Unfortunately I have committed to attending a certain game with yellow-sashed friends on Wednesday evening. I'm hoping that bottomless banana daquiris are served at the bar to dull the senses and fog the memory.
  3. And play them out of position as well? I don't have any better opinion Moonie, and I'm no team selector, but this just sounds a bit like a Chris Connolly tactic to me. Maybe its desperate times.
  4. Sheesh That bit wasn’t directed at you. I invite you to read it in the context of my first sentence, post #35 It’s about the ability of teams to generate successive successes - as evidenced in this case by appearances in finals - it’s not about which team has the biggest gonads of all time. I’ll bow to your judgement on that.
  5. Thanks mate. Good luck defending that ambit claim But plenty in recent times... Also Swans, Eagles, Crows, Giants etc with multiple recent (this decade - is that ok?) finals appearances say ‘Hi Chook’ Simple question: why are we making excuses?
  6. This thing that some posters believe about finals appearance causing a late start to the preseason and impacting next year.... Players late to get going again. Compromised by unhealed injuries, post surgery recovery period, late to get back into aerobic fitness regime (despite playing and training a few weeks longer than non-finals teams) - yada yada yada At least a couple of teams in recent memory say ‘Hi’: Brisbane Lions 2001-2004 Cats 2007-2011 Hawks 2013-2015 Guess I don’t subscribe to the theory that an athlete’s body goes to lard, butter and jelly the year after playing finals.

  7. Enjoy the drink and your weekend McQ. Hope you get some takers. Have one for us.
  8. Feels strange sitting at the G watching the footy and wearing a singlet. Sorry Eddie, it’s not a very silvertail singlet either. Cmon Dees, get your system back.
  9. He's like Robert Redford as The Sundance Kid
  10. So should we do a poll? Would 8 premierships in the next 8 years cause OD to: a) get a new lease on life and live for the next 15-20 years? b) see the first 3 cups, then get palpitations from all the excitement (regardless of the lack of a social club) and happily turn his toes up, with an enigmatic and everlasting smile on his face? c) live out whatever timeline is destined, regardless of MFC successes?
  11. Nice idea binman. Any thoughts about the shape of said pin? Tongue in cheek, it could be a little bugle. Or a cheese board But I like the idea that someone had of the throw rug. A life size one I mean. Thanks to all who kick in twice. Unfortunately I’ll be on the MCC waitlist for a long time yet, but I’ll join your ranks when it becomes possible. And this year’s offer of an alternative to the scarf was a good idea. Although I love wearing the new one each year, the old ones are just building up in the cupboard. So this year I opted for the 3 games pass to give to my Blues-loving partner to save her a little cash when she comes with me. The club will still get something - I’ll probably still buy a scarf anyway ....
  12. IIRC, Dec Keilty was used in the Casey ruck in his earlier days, albeit a little outsized on some occasions. Might be a need for him to play that role again. Not that I wish him to miss any chance of selection for the AFL team.
  13. Cadbury family size blocks reducing in size Vegemite coming out with a gluten free version Polly Waffles making a re-entry splash down into the market - if you’ll pardon the pun What is the world of fine dining coming to?
  14. Since it's show and tell: I actually got let off by a friendly parking inspector yesterday Sorry Andy, I know that will [censored] you orff for being off topic. But it's a true story.
  15. Proud to say I own his signed match-worn guernsey from the 2017 breast cancer awareness game. Farewell Tomas. You came to us and added a spark that we were lacking. You made one big error but learned a very valuable lesson in life, and you showed that you learned. Best wishes for the future.
  16. He was in the main group drills, trained with the backs. No sign of him being on the outer with the lads or having any injury. He’s not a loud character so he doesn’t stand out. Just seems to be focussed on doing things right in the drills for now.
  17. I didn't see much of him yesterday, only glimpses. I was situated near the backs group and he definitely wasn't training with them. I agree and I like him too - he's done the odd freakish move, moreso from what I've seen at Casey than anything in the seniors, but for now it's mostly potential. Time will tell.
  18. Viney is running like a powerful machine. Very driven attitude. Baker is struggling to keep up with him while they do repeat 30-40sec run throughs around the boundary. Viney is timing everything and telling Baker what to do next.
  19. Was your reflection admiring your own Red ar*se, or counting down the steps till you reached it?
