  1. I have seen photos on the club site. Did anyone go? Thanks
  2. I also like the opinions of a number of others, and some opinions I respect and some that just never make much sense, others seem to post just to get some negative reaction. The you said , I said, carp is like dead fish. But the training reports and close relationships with players gives insight . Love the training reports. Not much else to focus on at this time year. But most of us are Demons for ever.
  3. Question why ? Getting older, as everyone does, you only have so many seasons left. I enjoy immensely talking rubbish about football. Sometimes with advice from demonland I make sense, passed my dad was getting close to what my old mum was. Enjoy the journey, just need to ignore comments that are pure vexatious, meant to give angst, or are by trolls. Others have their opinions I read them all, Most have some % that I think might be relevant, but I feel good about this year really good. I like your stuff.
  4. Just thinking off the top of my head, that will mean something like, Petty, T Mac and perhaps Johnson rotating through Back, forward and interchange Bench ?? I am looking forward to this year more than I was last but 2022 was a disappointment after half way.
  5. I always liked this thread. Given our new recruits, how do they fit in with this post Keep this thread warm !

    I was , or am same 50-50 if it happens great, go hell for leather, I know the area extremely well. Grew up nearby, school, football , It was not my first ideal location for a club ground, but, there is plenty of room so why not

    Ethan Tremblay come on down. It's all OK I don't believe it. But it gives the pies something to aim at
  10. I will probably join them. I do know we lost Smith, Gus, and Spargo from our potential best 22. And with no replacement from drafting, Mr Oliver did not have a fantastic preseason makes it 4, Take four best 22 out of any side and you only need one more, read tracca, and it was no surprise we went downhill rapidly, plus Max, plus Fritta, plus..... Negative media and poor FD replies to that neg stuff, and we were slip sliding away. We should have 3 of those back, and have other replacements on the list. All things being equal, we should do better than 2024, and

    No shiny shoes like the other guys but its good to see all these guys happy in each other's company, looks like a settled relaxed senior group just waiting for the preseason to re start

    Agitated only if he looked in a mirror or the photos , But then "just married" it's not photos he should be looking at. So probably has not noticed, yes please a training report, thanks in advance

    Yes Lords Reserve you could play with cows on that paddock, and there really was a brick shed, tin roof, and poor plumbing, 71, 72 and 73 I think, the under 18 side was very good, but not the reserves, I can still remember the great feeling walking off after a win and so many losses

    And many years before the football it was the yabbies, Thought everyone knew about them in the lakes

    Kingsley Ellis was coach, Patrick Sheedy reserves, and I was one of pats problems, He still remembers my face and name on the odd occasion, once with UHSOB, Never was any good!

    It was good for that as well, but at least 10 years before football
  17. Use a torch

    The difference with ware we train now is really only the time delay between Richmond and Caulfield. And there are express trains what 15 minutes, or less

    It's not wasted, 52 years ago I used it for football training running around twice. Was enough to get nice and warm. Then play with the footballs Federal league well and truly gone. Someone must run around it these days, But yes. I think a wasted opportunity if we let it slip
  20. Thanks. I am baby sitting a cat for 4 days in London and the owner chose us because of the coming from Melbourne, this might repay him a bit, Thanks.
  21. Asking for a friend, Is there a similar site for Carlton blue baggers, apart from big footy. ? Ta

    If under 18 no vote, then my 6 reduces to 2, and we had too much on, but interested. Feel like it's voting at a Company AGM. The proxy votes have the candidate selected and chosen, individual votes give a vibe. Not a result.

    No no, Stil away, MT, hoping to see a couple of football games live, just not great, it will be second division ? Cheltenham town , Looking after a cat for 3 weeks, no I am not cheap but it's an experience, back for the practice matches, Reading "Land" is keeping me insane, and my feet on the ground,

    This thread at least has a good starting point, some very relevant points, quite apart from I hate the baaastards, Or how I want players X, Yand Z to thump said piece of pie excrement, Does not need thumping (well not much). But no respect please. A decent plan will allow us to finish over them.
  25. Training like they play, Thanks for the positive and negative
