Tarax Club

points points points…

Rather be on the Illawarra with a sea breeze, a beer and Miss Wollongong.

Roar of the crowd fine. Mega PA deafening + mind numbing. Seriously considering premium noise canceling headphones for my next visit.

Trump that Darwin in the ‘build up’ before the Monsoon season.

Whether weather, trialing the new game plan plays, synchronicity amongst the new playing group or emergencies held over had an impact? It’s just a practice match. Right?

Scenes from Sunday Too Far Away at the 'G Idolaters from Sin City beware.

God knows.

Selections for the first game are surprisingly bold. Feels like a real sea change. The future is never known, let’s hope if the opportunities present we’re capable of grasping them with both hands.

Lucky 🍀 13 by my count Wayne. Where have they gone? Retired Hibbo, Gus and BBB. Departed: Jackson, Harmes and ANB. Suspension: Pickett. Emergency: Tmac. Injured/Recovery Charlie Spargo.

The game plan's in here somewhere!

That centre line looks powerful. Stuff premierships are built around.

“But the potential to opening up of further access… could benefit the demons down the track with his (Tairon Ah-Mu’s) brother Corey shaping as a talent for the 2027 draft pool.”

May be some light at the end of the tunnel on this one. AFL website article today “Clubs pitch for access to Pacific Island talent…” Fingers crossed for a more inclusive policy from head office.

OK than Spock… As long as these guys don’t hitch a ride picket.

Scotty might be more appropriate. Spock would likely throw a spanner in the works.

Poses the question doesn’t it? Given the 3 metre + high chain link fencing, Goody’s love for training behind locked gates and Richo’s security protocols. How was such high quality intel accessed? Here are the possibilities: a. Access all areas clearance fell out of Richo’s back pocket in the car park. b. Identity switch, Operative RL23 feigned a role as Casey Fields janitor. c. Opportunistically moonlighting whilst on leave from U.N.C.L.E d. Most likely scenario; gifted amateur with a penchant for surveillance technology. Sighted yesterday at Casey Fields.

Goal kicking? Just put a roof on it.

Doubt it he ain’t Doug Wade.

Wishful thinking but put me back in the Tardis set the time clock back to 1956 for the season opener. At Punt Road v Tigers Saturday April 14. Mercifully no petty squabbles all teams get to play. For those still in a spin about the practice game result. Demonwiki reports “Neither sides forward line impressed.” For the accuracy pendants you’re still relevant, MFC 12 goals 18 behinds. Sputnik launch was still over two years away.

Bravo Brad Green! That interview was well timed, wide ranging, unequivocal and courageous. 100% agree with the intent and the message. Puts Melbourne Football Club firmly back on the path to the Big League. Now do it on field. Go Demons!

Our last man on the list was JC Rab. He wandered around the Botanical Garden sand dunes for forty days wondering if he was going to get the call up.

It’s a rich tableau at Casey Fields these days.

Heats got to him.

Some sessions with Tiger Woods’s Shrink will help.
