Winners at last

I can't believe that anyone actually watches that show.

Brayshaws presence was not the high point of that show. He is the sycophants sycophant. He was only there to laugh at Billy Brownless, roll his eyes after any reference to North Melbourne, say Nicky Dal at any opportunity and rub his hands together at the start of the show. Tasks he managed to master. He's run out of ideas now.

PD, i think you are overestimating him. He is at best the sycophant's sycophant's sycophant, but more realistically the sycophant's (x3) sychophant. If you follow my drift.

Had the longest preamble to questions than anybody on the media.

lol. Sometimes it's hard to remember the start of his question, if in fact the jumbled convoluted leviathin of words constituted a sentence .

He lives around the corner from me. He's an OK bloke (friendly) for what that's worth. He has 3 very young kids despite being no spring chicken. So he'll need to work for a long time. 

Hate Hawthorn. But from all accounts he's a ripper bloke.

He was a Kiwi who, back in the 60's, had a band called Ray Columbus and the Invaders and they had a big hit with a song called She's a Mod.

 

yeah, yeah ...

I met Wayne Duncan a couple of times.

As a funny aside ,he was mates/Neighbours with Felicity Kennett ,not Jeff so much.

Jeff really hated their friendship.

Wayne loved a drink and obviously music.

Would be a shocking neighbour for a conservative bore who never had a childhood.

Vale Wayne.

I used to live in Sorry Hills. My ex wife still lives there. It suits her.

I hate Kennett. He is the embodiment of evil.

I've seen WD play a few times over the years. One time was in the Phil Manning Band at the Pacific Hotel at Lorne early/mid 80s.

Worst movie I can remember is Crocodile Dundee 2, followed by any other movie involving Paul Hogan, followed by Red Dog.

And I recently discovered that Thunderclap Newman died earlier this year! HT I thought you would have let me know. Not a good year for old musoes that's for sure 

There seems to be something in the air ...

Is that show still on?

Ha, Thanks WJ,  at first reading of the title I thought that you were referring to Gryff Rhys Jones and Mel Smith's TV show ALAS Smith and Jones.  I prefer your alternative!!

Alas Smith & Jones was a reference (supposedly humourous) to Alias Smith & Jones.

I loved him as a player. Favourite player in fact, well other than Robbie of course.

But I've come across him at close quarters on a number of occasions since then. Not a great bloke. 

Having said that, I hope he recovers from his mental issues. 

Garlett should be given the occasion run in the centre square to get him into the game if he's having a quiet one.

The proof of the pudding ....

I know my namesake is still a passionate Dee. 

Yes, he loves the Dees. He's a top bloke.

He has a Youtube clip of him kicking the winning goal against Adelaide on his mobile phone!!

Riv will be able to put to use all the strategy, management and tactics he learned at Melbourne.

He learned from the best !!!

Derryn Hinch spread some rumours about Cousin Roy. And don't get me started on Zig!!!

He may well be picked up by a club in the NTL*

*National Tunnelball League

Eeeek !!!

Nathan Ablett says hi!!

Melbourne are favourites to win the opening game. $1.80 to $2.00.  We could easily win our first ten. 

Hmm, we could easily win our first ten. Yes, that's extremely likely.

In the valley of the blind, the one eyed man is king ...

Ripper article. So amusing.

It's almost like reading something I've written. (Only slightly less amusing.)

Big Stef will be pleased.

Mods, perhaps time to close this thread?

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?
