Sth melb market dimmies ar gtfo
When my Aunt used to fly down to visit she would always bring a big bag of frozen sth melbourne market dimmies and we would have half fried and half steamed. Best day of the year.
She would also bring a fresh pineapple for sweets which blew our minds in 1980s Tasmania.
Imagine going through airport security now with 24 dim sims and a pineapple in your suitcase.

Anyway.. ... Clarko.

We used to pack our bags with fire crackers if any of us were in Tassie for cracker night in the early 80s or we'd get staff from there to courier over about $100 worth.

I don't think bags were searched but we were never caught out.

The 80s were ok. Except maybe the big hair and some of the clothes.

Couldn't buy a pineapple, but could buy a shopping bag full of explosives for $20 at the local shop!

He’s a taxi driver now.

One of the best Aussie shows ever made.
very slight disservice mate

not just one of the best aussie shows ever made

one of the best shows ever made, period

For anyone who’s missed it, all three seasons are running back to back on the Boxed Sets channel (ch 150 in HD) on Sunday Aug 21 from 10am, the day after our season ends.

Hello never posted on here before but this thing driving me crazy.

Been a lifelong supporter and been involved as a major sponsor so have some contacts all I was told was to be patient. Working out assistants and Soft Cap.

I’ve also heard that
Clarko is meeting with us at some point today?

From reading the posts from KIA34 it seems he on the money.
 
Not sure I get the Sheedy/Malhouse reference

Just adding a red herring to the mix, throwing the blood hounds like Caro off the scent. All part of the master plan
I’m going to need to hire a full time interpreter for The acurate one

Is it in pig Latin? I get every 3rd to 4th word the rest is gibberish

Mr Uncle Leo gee willikers, a tad harsh one could suggest.

It's a bit frustrating that it seems Calrko is taking his time here when the club has basically made it clear that we want him and aren't considering anyone else. It's almost unprecedented. Usually, it's other way around, and the clubs are the ones making a decision on a certain date. Not saying we haven't done the right thing here - absolutely we have. But if this all-in approach doesn't push him our way, nothing will.

Not saying our insiders (one in particular) haven't been credible, but it really does look like the final decision hasn't been made as yet. He may have told people privately that he's leaning towards us, but I don't think the club would be passing this sort of information that it's done, when clearly it isn't.

Crikey- are you now the new ITK ? :p Or is it a new account .

Oh I am joking, yes there is another meeting planned, as to when I am not sure.

And welcome, don't stay to long or you'll go nuts, just like UL :p

I am getting sick of whistling this...


Said "woman take it slow, and it'll work itself out fine"
All we need is just a little patience...

Remember that there are contracts that almost certainly have key dates which may prevent certain announcements being made, and there will be preconditions which will trigger some North staff to be terminated. They will also be contracted and / or serving out notice periods.

Let's all hope that the transition goes to plan and the interests of all decent people are served in this process.
 
I just don’t get it - if indeed they are discussing assistants and softcap, why it still hasn’t been announced. It’s not like the assistants will be announced at the same time (or need to be announced)

I can't tell if you genuinely think Clarko is still deciding or if this is just a defence mechanism
 
Right it seems our ITK K34 has been subbed out. Luckily for you all I’m the ITK medi sub.

While he was the dashing ITK type, I am more your fumbly plodder.

So while it looks like we’ve landed Clarko, my sources are suggesting a Mick Nuthouse/ K Sheedy double act is a chance to get up.

Think about that.

The Pres is happy with how the talks are progressing re Clarko there has been no major hurdles that are proving insurmountable.

Inthink it important that all parties are on the same page .

We’ve got it horribly wrong with the last two coaches.
Thanks Ben Speight 👍

(Hey is Kingy catching up with you in Adelaide on Friday by any chance?)

Chich when are you coming back😭
Sunday!
Mitch Cleary on sen: Clarko set to make his decision by the Friday before Rd 23 - with Sonja Hood conducting the entire process minus any CEO involvement
Someone’s clearly been reading bigfooty lol
Good morning Mitchell 😉
 
Given Sonja’s past history on this BF board, is it a stretch to think that she is the one keeping us all informed of the background machinations - via KIA34? Also, KIA34’s frustrated response last night reminded me very much of how Heath reacted on here a couple of years ago.

Thank you - as I posted a couple of days ago an announcement IF it was next week was likely to be late in the week. I have heard the whispers of a meeting today/tomorrow. AND as I have continuously said Hood is driving the media narrative hence why NO ONE except Barrett is getting info and why no journo is jumping all over this. I also have separate intel regarding the main meeting Clarkson had with Hood but I’m not going to spill as I don’t want to burn my source. Again the window dressing is mentioned ie assistants etc. as a reason for delay - something I’ve been consistent on. So you can all have your opinions but based on what I have gathered there is actually no decision by the Friday before the last game - there will just be an announcement of Clarkson as coach.The timing of that announcement though may be after round 23 but I have nothing on that. Good morning campaigners and I MAY post if I get more.

Mate, I have no idea. On one hand I do believe our insiders (even though some things just don’t make sense). On the other hand, the media is going with “Clarko to decide by round 23” line which also seems plausible.
