Dunno about that. There's a high % of AFL footy fans that are women, many more than other male dominated sports, more so than cricket or soccer. I know of many footy mad mum's that have determined their kid's preferences. Likewise most draftees want to be in the same state, the same city as their family. That would be the true 'overwhelming' factor. Whilst Jeff might have a soft spot for the Dees and say he'd like his kid there, the reality of family unity might not lure the kid far from home. But here's hoping he's a gun and chooses the Dees, hey...

'Tenuous' being the op's most pionent word.

Whatever tickles your pickle bjd. Sounds like you're already there!

I reckon he'd say "toughen up!" So let's do it (digitally).

I thought my suggestion to be practical as well as satisfying your fantasies. Sorry for being an ideas man and thinking outside the square

I suggest you take your helicopter and land on the ground, in the style of Peter Hudson, with a team of pompom waving cheerleaders escorting you to your seat.

Jeezus you speak some indecipherable bs some time Bitters.

Ernie, if you're not living on the edge you're taking up too much room!

Written from first hand experience Ernie?

Are you suggesting it is a hobby of Stu's? That figures...

Uncle Bitters has done his job getting the lads impregnated dc. Now it's a waiting game to see if the outcome is worthy of the RMS... and more importantly, which category they fit into.

Michael 'Tuck' or perhaps Robert 'Hyde'?

FMD, Whorethorn have just declared that they are the 'underdogs' for the premiership this year. Yeah, sure... Because they've come all the way from outside the 8 this year or the last 3 years to scrape into the finals?

That I don't know some ugly looking guy with a bad name? Actually I do: Uncle Bitter!

Never heard of him

Did you save them up on your trip east Ethan? Surprised if you weren't charged the excess luggage.

I bet he didn't bowl any maidens over. But might've gone down to long leg

Toady! Welcome back young fella. Must've been some banning you received!

WTF?

Yes, they are not serious enough. Try harder man!

He was crappola for us. Pure retirement fund trade.

No Biff, it can't be polished, but it can be rolled in glitter.

You could sculpt one out of your stool Ethan. Might be quite a work of art. You could title it 'The Tremblay Danger'

Good meals there too. The Prickly Moses Ale and the Forest Brewery Silvertop Ale are great local drops. Also try the scallop pie or seafood mornay pie from the A Bay bakery. No, I don't have shares in those joints!

Pretty sure Gawny's family cafe is down the Gippsland coast Ethan. May sure you have a beer at the Wye River pub if you are heading that way. Great view.
