@spirit of norm smith . . . WTF makes you think a Filth player would have even heard of Shakespeare, let alone read him or understood him?

I’m out in Dandenong doing something for a friend. I’ll need to be fumigated on my way back to the MCG. Im not making any eye contact out here - is good training for Head Quarters tonight.

I love Jake - but I must admit - I don't see leadership stamped all over him. Waving your arms about and shouting isn't necessarily the peak leadership experience. If Max retired today, Viney would be my man.

Brodie is both a participant in, and the victim off, the pernicious consequences of the diverse forms of neo-liberalism, the market-economy, and the populism of the meat-market known to us as the AFL. All souls are available to be sailed up the river by shameless, self-righteous and conniving sleaze-bags. If he’s feeling betrayed, I cannot blame him. Yet, we all play a part, consciously or not, in our own betrayal. And on a reported $1.2m per year for seven years, guaranteed, my mercifulness toward him is somewhat circumscribed. As they say in other places, Brodie has what can be termed, “a better class of problem”.

We would have become a quarter of the player he turned out to be instead of half the player he was.

I caught up with a few family members. They seem like nice enough people.

I would love them please @Dante.

Hey @Engorged Onion. Thank you for your well articulated and thoughtful contribution. I agree with the notions expressed in your first four paragraphs. What I would say is this. The Love Shack and Jack Watts share the same characteristics, one of which is the inability to exert themselves physically on a game. This is not a lack of desire, but something that just isn't in their genetic make-up. I don't have it myself and this made me a very average footballer. 45 years after giving up on football, I know I definitely have 'hunger', but it expresses itself in a different way to that that is expected of footballers. Aussie Rules is a brutal game, and for some of us, so it is in life. Yet, somehow, hunger - expressed as resilience, tenacity and persistence, get us through the difficult encounters in the same way that toughness and brute strength are relied on by footballers. Once again, thanks for your fine contribution. QD.

Adrian Diabolical not being sacked.

Nominee for post of the year.

In 1972, Chinese premier Zhou Enlai was asked about the impact of the French Revolution. "Too early to say," he replied. If GWS or St. Kilda make it to a preliminary final, their bloke surely is CoTY. Our bloke is CoTY when we [censored] the Filth in the granny.

What is the definition of a 'big club'?

Back in the ol' days, I regularly went hard for a good ruck.

That moment when you realise ‘Land is bat [censored] crazy and you just loose it.

Are we talking about Fritta's foot or Ralph's brain @WalkingCivilWar?

In that case, he definitely plays, alternating in the ruck with Max, chop out for Maysie and kicking the lazy six from the hotdog stand.

I have watched all the great full-backs for the last 50 years. Maysie's name sits comfortable among them. To have Wetting-the-Bed and Andrews in front of him speaks to the ever-mounting evidence of the incompetence at Harrison House.

Two weeks is an eternity in the skinny, low cell-count minds, of the AFL media. Most change their minds based on the last mark or tackle they witnessed. I heard Lloyd say recently that two current players at the one club were "once in a generation players" Absolutely astonishing.

anything jeewrong related is bloody strange IMHO.

So as it stands right now with, say, 12 minutes to go: Brisvagas wins Port hot faves to beat Ninethmond We play Filth at HQ first week finals whether win or loose tomorrow.

One of the architects of the Horethorn tank in the 2000 and zeros is still at it this very day.

I'm in good company by the sounds if it.

Whatever you get on before you get on 'Land @jnrmac, I want some.

A climax in late September is generally good for all parties involved.
