The Reverend

Yeah, I heard him speak at a function recently and he said he had been a member all his life.

Were you at Auburn South Primary school in the 60's?

Once Paddy Boy, always a Paddy Boy!

Not surprised by the way this has been handled. After 65 years of following this club, I've learned not to expect the expected.

Even AI could provide something reasonably coherent, you'd think...

I think we're all forgetting what a nice trip to the Gold Coast will do for the boys' suntans. Let's focus on what's important at this time of year.

I'm still getting over the fact that I received a reminder from the MFC during that last quarter that my automatic debit would be taken out this week. Salt, wounds, friction?

It's a bit like kickings skills - you have to learn them properly when you're young or you're screwed for all time.

I'm usually optimistic, but there's little to take away from that performance. On that showing we'd be struggling to win a game in the VAFA, let alone the VFL. It's going to be a long season unless something changes drastically in the next few weeks. It's probably safe to book some holidays for September.

Every time I see him take off along that wing, I see Robbie Flower. The resemblance is astonishing.

There's some spirit in these boys.

Still think we'll make game of this. It's been a [censored] show thus far, but we'll get to see what our leaders are made of in the second half.

Seriously???

Thanks OD. I'm still around, but since I retired, I've found more productive things to do than sitting at the keyboard. Says a lot about my commitment to my job! What's AO?

Emailed the club today to find out training dates, but alas, the office is closed until Jan 18. The club seems unconcerned about fans wanting to support our team at training. The only message on the website is from last year advising that all training would be at Casey due to works at Gosch's Paddock. I'm keen to take my grandkids to a session before they go back to school.
