Crompton's the man

Great call

At least as good as last week's, if not better !

Hi Middymalt Havent been through it but would bet plenty have and sorry no one has the courage to empathise. seen plenty of it but and if I could throw one pearl your way it is to play the long game; if the children can be persuaded that you have always loved them, always supported them and always sought their wellbeing I would suspect your relationship will be strong in the long run. Wish you well

Nice pass to Watts

At least Paul Roos will have plenty of material to analyse in the 'areas where we could improve ' category

Truly truly hope we can hold them to this margin cos I can remember looking at St Kilda 40+ at 41/1 and deciding that wasn't going to happen

St. Kilda would have beaten Hawthorn but for a disgraceful incorrect disposal decision at the end of the game. Every team, even Essendon and Carlton have to be taken as seriously as Vladimir Putin

Gee you've suffered through some very painful experiences. You get three Gold Stars from me Hope tonight helps

If you go through Eastern Health you can get your ECT funded with no gap through Medicare. Nick Riewoldt is a fine footballer and I hope he has a really really bad day today. At least Stephen Milne won't be on the field so that's a plus

Well in the wash up from this round it transpires that Jack Viney is cleared by the MRP and Alex Rance is suspended for 2 weeks ( as he should have been ) I'm very comfortable with the suspension ; I'm very uncomfortable with the criticism of Alex Rance on the basis that he's a Jehovah's Witness as alluded to by several posters. A person's worldview should hardly be the basis for pointing out their short-term failings. There are few among us who could withstand that level of scrutiny although evidently some on Demonland and to those I convey my congratulations on their achievements

I feel many of you have forgotten the great debt of gratitude we collectively owe to Michael Malthouse. Surely there's a members bar somewhere we can name after him.

In a moment of weakness I must confess to putting a green one on Jack last week. truly would be most gratified if your insightful opinion is borne out.

You could be right. He was probably booed because he did a war dance and many football fans are opposed to war. After all, what is it good for?

Just Googled Collingwood jokes and discovered that Demonland has an ancient forum dedicated to the topic although many are, I must regrettably say, unsavoury and close to reprehensible and not at all politically correct. Accordingly I urge all readers to avoid revisiting that page

Surely we all appreciate this but it's hard to pass by : our list turnover and recruiting has been just that little bit better under the Roos regime

Never In Doubt

Never In Doubt

Despite the "anything else but that" moments it's a real thrill after all these years to see MFC playing exciting attacking football whether we win today or not it's a new day dawned

That explains it Bin wondering why he's so dim

Did you happen to see how much rain there'd been in Brisbane? Skills weren't at optimum levels as a result There is such a thing as tempting fate and counting chickens and famous words and the like and I'm not in favour of any of it

Thank you for trying

I believe in His vision and I'm sure it'll be good for all of us, not just Collingwood ( which I'm thinking of visiting while I'm on the South Island out of reverence for Murray the Weed and others - is it worth the trip?) and even more importantly, is it possible to see the game in a country that only recognises rugby, beer and horseracing ?

Good question I only have $123.50 left in my Super Fund to spend before the old age pension kicks in and need to know how to invest wisely?
