At Least I Saw a Flag

Actually it was closer to 20 seconds ...

Agreed. Other than - Point of order LH. The goal v Essendon wasn't after the siren. After he kicked the goal, there was a centre bounce and about another 60 seconds of the match. I was there. Couldn't actually watch him taking the kick, but have watched the replay dozens of times !!!!

All Australian?

Bomber Thompson ... James Hird ... no wonder everyone loves Essendon !!! hahahahahaha

Yes, he'll make us pay ... part of his salary

Chronic underachiever ....

Bit of name dropping in this thread!! Healing Force released that absolute classic "Golden Miles". Mal Logan (keyboards) is a good mate of mine. (Also a long time Tigers' supporter: he's still in seventh heaven!!)

yes

In October 1994, Beitzel was sentenced to 18 months jail, with a minimum of eight months to be served, after pleading guilty to obtaining financial advantage by deception over matters related to his work for a lottery organisation.[2] He served his sentence initially at Pentridge Prison and then at the open, minimum-security Morwell River Prison Farm. Beitzel strenuously denied that he had ever intentionally committed a crime.

Last night's match was easily his best match for MFC.

Agree with most posters. He has really underperformed. Hopefully he puts in a good one today.

1976 for me.

They do things differently there.... Also Alan Bates

"The past is a foreign country". L.P. Hartley, The Go Between.

Probably worth retaining on the rookie list once his contract has ended ....

I just put $10 on Clayton for the Brownlow @ $67

Don't you mean lucked IN?

For the purposes of certainty (putting on my lawyer hat), Oliver (the player) reminds me of Voss (the player).

He reminds me of Michael Voss

As much as I hold Hird in low regard, I wish him all the best for a full recovery.

Is Hibberd a better player than Melksham? Are they similar types? Did MFC need both? Are there any other questions I should be asking? If yes, what are they?

I went to a ladyboy show in Thailand a couple of years ago. (With my then girlfriend.) It wasn't at all like a strip show. Pretty much just miming and dancing. I'd imagine the Melbourne show would be fairly similar. I can't imagine it attracting much of an audience here. It's pretty much just a tourist thing to do while overseas.

I met Martin Flanagan (at the footy) through a mutual friend. He's a top bloke!! He even bought me a beer. Love his writing too.

"The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there." The opening line from The Go Between, L.P. Hartley. I never miss an opportunity to trot that one out. And clearly readers of a football supporters' forum will be very receptive to that information.

The Club is pathetic. I have valuable information regarding Adam Tomlinson. I emailed the football club suggesting that someone from the football department call me. Still waiting. Hopeless.
