At Least I Saw a Flag

Nibbler .... did what Nibbler does best.

I bumped into Marty Hore, his parents and some friends of his parents at The Convent in Abbotsford this arvo. (I was at the tail end of a bike ride.) They obviously called in there for a coffee after the Casey Match at Victoria Park. When I realised who he was I said "hey you should have been playing yesterday" to which all of them (including Marty) replied YES !! (quite indignantly). Clearly not happy that Marty hadn't been selected. A very nice young man.

Roos? Move on chaps. And to the poster who was banging on about missing Kelly, the Club was going to take Billings with the draft pick that was traded.

I hate the filth so much ...

Why is everyone so worried about AVB? I've heard he's only out for 4 - 6 !!

Welcome. Good post!

John McEnroe summed it up best ...

He was VERY unhappy at GWS when he wasn't getting a regular game and wanted to come home. He's a regular starting 18 player now though, so I'd be surprised if he came home when GWS could snag a flag within the next few years.

I saw him a coupla weeks ago at my local cafe. He was hobbling.

Has anyone suggested that it might be worth trying Frost on the wing?

It would be repeating mistakes from the past ... Kelvin Templeton anyone?

Why would Brown leave Norf? Especially to go to MFC.

And muffins

Sportsbet offering $1.45 on the filth. I know the filth aren't playing well, but fairly generous odds.

I had put $200 on the Tigers @ $1.17. Money for old rope. Pays for my coffees this weeek.

I'm going to see a Doors tribute band in Brunswick tonight . They will be performing songs like The End ...Fitting really.

Steven Bradbury says hi

Frawley looks cooked. And Scully was very average. These are the only things I seem to get any joy from this season. Sorry, there's also seeing the filth lose.

I had the good fortune to sit next to Martin Flanagan at a match. (Friend of a friend.) He is a top bloke ... and an awesome sports writer. Viney ... he's an Old Carey boy. He is not a credit to the old school ... semi articulate at best. He should spend the entire pre season learning to kick/handball on his right side. And barging headlong into tackles isn't a great idea. Other teams have well and truly worked him out. And if he deals with these issues, perhaps some elocution lessons?

Apart from the above, all seems to be going well ..

I put a lazy $200 on Tigers $1.17. It will be carnage.

That was your goal Oscar !!!

Beautiful kick by Baker. Shame Petty dropped the mark.

ANB is a terrible, terrible player.

Smith just stood there while Bruce took that mark.
