  1. I've never been to Spain Ernest, but I've seen enough bull here to write a novella on the subject.
  2. I can recall in the musical South Pacific there was a beach party scene where there was a call for clam.
  3. I'm calmer than you are Dude. Calmer than you ! - Walter Sobchak.
  4. The mail at the Gat gets lots of attention from the Federal police and customs. Anyway, someone from Ozanam House is enjoying being a New member no doubt.
  5. Our strategy when Schwab and Bailey were around was to let GWS rape the draft then time our rock bottom just after that. We picked some terrible picks thanks to some inept staff that are now either at Carlton or are selling cladding door to door. The tanking strategy was a good one but it ruined the existing seniors like McLean and Sylvia , and the sacking of Junior after his best year of footy compounded it. We had no other option,no money , no chance of getting existing stars. This was the environment Watts entered , along with Gawn ,Dunn and Jones. We made mistakes far more damaging to the club than what Richmond has.Our rebuild was like a road trauma, Richmond are dying slowly from malnutrition. Sydney on the other hand got C.O.L.A. Richmond have themselves to blame. Long may they suffer.
  6. Good idea. We still have to play there. Our home games should never be there. Thats the point. Leave it to the other clubs that signed on there and get their home games OFF the MCG.
  7. Before the Collingwood game. Spoke to Declan today and it was sent to my old address. we should be ready to go soon.
  8. SERENITY NOW!!!!
  9. Hurley seems more important than Prestia at this stage. Prestia looked ordinary last night but a 20 goal thrashing can do that.
  10. Joe Montagna,Travis Cloke,Zaharakis, Jack reiwoldt,Ray Chamberlain
  11. yes I saw that. No where near the rucks but straight into the arms of a Saints rover for a goal. There was also a mark by Riewoldt at least 1 metre over the boundary as well an another paid to the saints. These maggots are constantly messing up my enjoyment of the game. Also a half volley to Roo called a mark,then tackled then paid 50 as the player tackling thought rightfully that it was a play on.(in 1st Quarter) Also they made a point of f*&king Jack Watts all day . They need bashing.
  12. You mean"there's a sucker born every minute" I think DC. That customer BS was just to get them in.
  13. Most Collingwood and Richmond girls fight it out on the street so it's nice to give the girls an arvo off the ice pipe and let them get some exercise. On a serious note, the Womens AFL will be administered by women and will command more revenue over time. The boys club of sports admin is coming to a well deserved end. Eddie and Collingwood will not be a part of the solution. I can foresee a woman as AFL chief in the near future.
  14. Ticketmaster and co are renowned for being inept and parasitical Saty. The fact that you worked there hardly disproves this. I wonder why they don't have a cash only window. These days of online bookings,computer generated bookings and credit card payments slow it down for the real people with real money.
  15. Hope the players have a good shower when they leave. Would hate to see a positive swab come up just from sitting on the chair or touching the lockers in there.
  16. In answer to your question I see your ticketek and raise you an AGL ,a Myki and an ASIC.
  17. Lost in the coach box and the backline. Punting a hard tag on Reiwoldt should be easy for Tom Mac but they let him shirk it. Its not the end of the world but it's another glowing error as a match day coach for Mr Calm. No heads will roll, no careers will end but we will not see any progress until these simple defensive tactics are utilised. The loose man back or flood the backline? No ,we just "zone off" like zombies and then point around between goals.
  18. 2nd head knock in a month means he will be resting for at least a week no?
  19. Wisey. Sarcasm only works verbally. But I think you like a bob each way.
  20. Just a thought Earl. Get the paste made in the cheapest Asian country available and then put your own label on it. I know its not a novel business approach but sometimes you hipsters need to stop with the pathetic attempts at craft and wise up or else we will see you clogging up the dole queues like the Fitzrovians of my youth once did.
  21. I would like to attend Casey today at Druggy Hill but the club still hasn't sent a membership card out yet. Starting to question the excellence of this administration. Off the field they are wasting time,opportunities and oxygen. The football dept looks adequate by comparison.
  22. Hindsight is always 20/20 but we lacked run,particularly run back into defence. It was like a shoot out but there was no support for the back six from the mids.(Daniher era) The talls as a block were outdone by the Saints big guns. TMac and Dunn had shockers but Watts,Pedo and Hogan were ok. Frost is still in and out of games but I can see why they persist with him. I'm not sold on the small ground ,big ground theory of selection. The Saints are better at Etihad,we are better at the G. We were lazy in Defence.
  23. I can run around dropping marks and clogging space for Hogan also. For half a mill I'll play every week too. Even with a broken leg. Dawes is finished until he can take marks. We were beaten by the Saints in the air and in run.
  24. Yes GARLAND is the answer . FMD Wisey, you should be coach. Nobody ever thought of that.
