Wee and poo. Protected species by umpires.

After all Biff, the Greeks invented sex, but the Italians introduced women to it.

Possibly, but it's worth remembering that the info comes 3rd hand, so it's hard to assess the accuracy of what Goodwin supposedly said.

YOU replied to my post on this thread #senile

From the article you linked on the other thread: "MIDFIELDER/forward Aaron vandenBerg will miss at least the next month, due to an ankle injury." which often means about 8 weeks in Dave Misson-speak. Didn't say he had not had an op either. Just to clarify.

Quote from an Andy_Mac post on Bigfooty re his conversation with Goodwin: - Spencer is only a week away. But depth is a worry in the Ruck. King needs to put 20kg's on, they aim for 7 per year- Neeld physiologically damaged the players, particularly Watts. He needs to be constantly reassured, high 5's etc - Roo's going to Hawaii for 6 months and undecided after that. Most likely not coming back in a footy role- club went very hard after Brendan McCarthy. Goody rates him as the best in the country at what he does- Truck is arrogant, but in a good way. He thought he should have been playing since round 1. Goody said he's way to good for the VFL. He said he's like a panther out there. Said he plays like a mixture of Stringer up forward and Ebert through the middle. He'll play forward and kick goals this year. If he could choose only one of Hoges and Truck, he'd pick Hoges but only cause he hasn't seen Truck at AFL level yet. That said he did almost smirk and giggle when he said Hoges is very very good.- explained the Essendon game well. He said "all club have [censored] days at the office", especially inexperienced ones like ours. he said the difference between us and Geelong who were in the same position as us against the bombers last weekend was that their senior players know how to grit their teeth and wait, and more importantly trust that momentum will shift and when it does take you take your chances and bury the oppo. We hit the lead at the 10min mark of the last. He said he expected us to kick 2-3 more and kill the game, we got over excited and blew it, the cats didn't. That's were the 80 games comes into it- they internally really rate Wagner and Hunt. He kept saying we found one on the weekend when referring to Hunt- Had some interesting things to say on his time at Essendon and more so how removed Hirdy is now. But that's not relevant.

Now you're catching on stuie!

Good get Vineytime. Article on MFC site says 4 weeks, but that is usually Melbourne-speak for 8 weeks.

Would be handy if one of you guys were present for Vander's ankle op and could confirm he'll be out for 6-8. ??

Congrats on the new appointment Earl. Sure beats the last one - pole dancing instructor at the Greyhound was never your thing.

No. Too uncouth for me....

Lucky man.

All I can say ManDee is that if you are into ornithology (bird watching), do not do a google image search for 'swallow'.

Run a virus detector through your device too ManDee. You'll be getting pop ups that would make a sailor blush!

Too funny. Actually, it was a grammar mistake and not a spelling mistake. He spelt the word correctly, but used the incorrect word. 'Then' relates to time, whereas 'than' is used in a comparative situation.

I had us winning 10-11 games this year which would show continued improvement. That still appears about right, even though it's early days. Would that put us about 11th? If we won 13 I'd be wrapped, but think it highly unlikely.

Thanks for the info Todd. Don't listen to the Negative Nancy's here that doubt you.

Love your work picket. Always entertaining. But can you share some of the 'good stuff' you are on with us?

If May played for Hawthorn he would've got off because Martin didn't run the required 15 meters. "Play on!"

Also from the article: "You know the person who’s obsessed with your, you’re, and whether you’re using your pronouns and contractions correctly? Turns out, they're kind of a jerk."
