  1. I recon Foxtel should do this: Remove "Gary Lyon, three time all Australian" in the crawler and replace with "Gary Lyon, 12 time Scanlens Card Star."
  2. Truly BA, is the air conditioning working at your place?
  3. What? If Reid was available for F8, F9 and F10, I'd definitely take Reid I'd love to see the evidence for all the conclusions you've drawn in paragraph two.
  4. I wonder if the same fan is suddenly interest in Max being treated fairly.
  5. Pretty sure we played all three Elliots in the same side more than once.
  6. Easily the most underrated player to go around for the Dees in the last 50 years.
  7. Had Pedo played in '23, we win the flag.
  8. A consequence of an inability to string several words into a coherent sentence.
  9. Robert Elliot was a pretty good player.
  10. Just spewed my lunch all over the keyboard at work. Mentioning Joe and Trak in the same sentence can have that effect.
  11. Having a good 6 in the coaches box and running rehab is pretty handy.
  12. And I'm not even sure about the click bait bit.
  13. I love it the way we have 6 one in a generational player.
  14. I feel like I'm in a scene from GoT. Very k974y.
  15. You're right @poita, the obsession only delivered a premiership.
  16. Nice analogy @TeamPlayedFine39. Indeed you don't.
  17. When I first saw this post, I read it as "Where is this p$ick going?".
  18. At least it's only premature speculation :-). Could be a lot worse.
  19. You ask "why then are they are getting 3 extra first round picks"? You could also ask why the AFL bailed Melbourne out of its self-imposed [censored] in 2013 to the tune of miliions of dollars. The one response will answer both questions.
  20. Yep - very badly managed by us IN HINDSIGHT.
  21. Lot of [censored] on here about Norf. By and large, they have been a good corporate citizen compared to most other clubs in the comp for the last 50 years They dragged the game kicking and screaming into the 20th Century in the 1970's via imaginative recruiting, terrific what we would now call 'list management', invented VFL grand final breakfasts; and then again in the 1980's with Friday Night Footy In the 2000's pioneered 'selling' games to raise revenue - something the Deez have emulated They did their best in the 2000 and teens to not bottom out (i.e. tank) and ended up finishing mid-ladder most years. This meant they did not have access to top end talent. Between 2010 and 2017, they had one top 10 pick (McDonald who ended up captaining the club). Their next best was pick number 12 in 2016 Let's not loose sight of the fact that Norf are victims of their desire to stay competitive and not cheat like half a dozen other joints we all could mention. Norf are NOT the baddies here. I suggest some posters direct their vitriol elsewhere (we should all know where).
  22. The only thing Colonwood is pulling off is CK.
  23. Imagine asking our Jessie what state he'd want to be in.
  24. I would have thought a pretty good deal for the dogs. They actually only give up two first rounders and some steak knives.
