What about Geoff's departure though rpfc?

I just do not understand the lack of love for Bwiaaaan. He's articulate, super knowledgeable about the game, respectful of others - especially women and umpires, has a fine footy intellect, can easily discern the ebb and flow of the game, is partial to the Deez, thoughtfully considers comments before he opens him mouth, played for two great and respected clubs and behaves with dignity and love at all times.

I've changed 360 degrees on Daisy.

QD gets home after working the late shift. Opens 'Land to get an update on the biggest story of the off-season so far. GAWN! Decides to watch the replay of the granny for a change!

The doormen told me Goody consults Demonland every Thursday prior to selecting the team. (Then does the opposite to all suggestions.)

Poor bugggars.

My Child . . . yes, you have indeed sinned. But all graceful 'Landers have mercy. For your penance: $1,000 to the poor box (i.e. North Melbourne charity cake stall fundraising drive in Feb 2022), 100 hours of volunteer work in the Collingwood finance department, Pray once a day for Horethorn's board, Never pray for Carlton, and Watch the 2021 GF replay at least once a week between now and when the AFLW season commences in 2022. Go in pease Child, your humility and honesty have saved you. Your sins are forgiven. Amen.

Good post GTB. Tempo was easily the best Dog I've seen (didn't see Whitten at his best). Footscray were pretty crap in the late 1970's when he was at his best, so there's not a lot of footage of him (those were the dayz when only two games were fully covered for TV). Those that saw his 15 against St.Kilda from CHF say it's one of the all time great performances. Most of them were kicked from beyond 50. He actually had 24 shots for goal that day. The only CHF to win a Brownlow. Even on half a leg at Melbourne he still managed to kick an average of three a game, including 51 in a team that finished ninth in a 12 team competition. He went on to have a very respectable career as an administrator (Swans) and businessperson. Easily one of the most under-rated VFL/AFL players of all time.

Just do the opposite to what Cornes wants and the rule will be fine.

What? Not Ray Biffen?

In 2000, the Melbourne Football Club named its team of the 20th Century. If we were to name the Club's best team since the inception of the VFL (i.e. 1896), who makes the side? Here is the 2000 team. Melbourne Team of the Century B: John Beckwith Tassie Johnson Don Cordner HB: Noel McMahen Gary Hardeman Don Williams C: Brian Dixon Allan La Fontaine Robert Flower HF: Hassa Mann Ivor Warne-Smith Garry Lyon F: Jack Mueller Norm Smith Percy Beames Foll: Denis Cordner Ron Barassi (Captain) Stuart Spencer Int: Frank Adams Albert Chadwick Wally Lock Laurie Mithen Jim Stynes Todd Viney Coach: Norm Smith Stan Alves, Ian Ridley, Bob Johnson and Greg Wells were all named as emergencies.

To be fair on Beaconsfield, they had their season cancelled, their best player (Hulk Harrahan) did her groin in round three, and in the rounds that were completed, the maggots killed 'em.

happy four week anniversary everyone.

There would hardly be an Olympic gold medalist that didn't train on Xmas day. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Interviewer: what separates the really good players from the champions? Paul Roos: The champions train on Xmas day. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Q) How well were the Demons equipped to take on the other teams had they played in a final series in October 2020? A) 2021 should have been our second in a row.

If I'm the Dogs, I recon I'm loving this draw.

Goody knew in February down at Sorrento.

The current President.

They'd be a lot worse appointments that could be made.

Trackta.

The only thing surprising about this Bing181 is how surprised you are. It's De Going Nowhere for goodness sake. Exactly the sort of dumb thing he would do.

Let’s play the Poos. For the last 15 years, there’s been something weirdly satisfying about watching Carlton have their hopes, dreams and expectations extinguished on the first day of the season. Let this not be another tradition that is trashed.

Run into a Carlton supporter today. Said "g'day mate". He paid a backhanded complement about our win. I said "it's our third anniversary today". "What?", he says. I say, "three weeks since we won a flag". He says something about having to wait another 57 for the next flag. I said, "and it's also only 49 weeks to go". Again, he says "what?". I said, 49 weeks until our 14th. He didn't like it at all.

Something similar happened to me WCW at the '87 Prelim. The Phukkenara 15 metre penalty happened right in front of me. I had that experience where everything slows down. Like being in a car accident. I knew I was watching a monumental cluster-phukk that would haunt me for the rest of time and there was nothing I could do to stop it. But at the same time, I was also in denial . . . "no this is not happening . . . they can't take this game, and a place in the granny, away from us. No, noooooooo". As the players ran off the ground I was just sitting in my seat - shocked. Then I thought, I'll turn on the radio . . . 3LO that day. Peter Booth was broadcasting and was talking from the Melbourne room. Something like, "there's a lot of noise and confusion down here . . . people are shouting and screaming." I remember thinking, and totally believing, there's been a mistake. The VFL will reverse the result. At worst, they'll come out and play the last few minutes again. I can't go home . . . the game's not over yet". I only officially got over the trauma of that day three weeks ago.
