While I don't think he was our worst, I also think Wood would have done as well as a minimum but likely better given his hunger for a first flag. He clearly wasn't fit, along with Reid. The thing that sickens me to the bone the most about this is how Presti sacrificed himself for the greater...

I am sitting overseas at 3 am having had to pay to watch this on the net. The first half I was loving it but concerned, the second half wondering WTF Mick wanted his last game in charge to be remembered by. Unfit and out of form players, not making moves to get players into/out of the game. I...

I was shattered when we got to the game last week and found out he was out. I had spent the past 7 hours on the trip down from Canberra arguing with my two mates that Leon was going to smash the game to pieces and shut up the critics - particularly them! So...I am now hoping that i was just a...

M24 standing room, can't bloody wiat...this week is taking forever!!!

Re: Your Grand Final Day? Get up at dawns crack and jump in the car to get from wagga down to melbourne. Park the car, give the Mrs a kiss and tell her I'll see her on Sunday!!! (she hasn't got a ticket, but i need someone to drive me home on Sunday :p). No idea what I will do after the game...

Making the trip down from the capital with two pie loving mates and we scored Q29 row B, so please make sure your spit is beer flavoured :D

I don't think this is a real photo. Micks shank isn't firmly and deeply insirted - otherwise I would have believed it!!!

Will do, though don't hold your breath!!!

yeah, no doubt about that. But after my week it was either punch out words on the keyboard or punch out some plasterboard after the last quarter. i think I took the right option...

Haven't posted for a long time but love this post and felt the need to share. Here is what I sent MM in response to his members email of earier this week. Dear Mick, thanks so much for the message, really can't wait for this weeks version!!! Here are a few words to try to work into it -...

Right, i can breath and think again...though my face is still a nice shade of rouge! The sack - welcome back! There was a comment early on it was his 3rd game in a row back for some time, and I think the confidence showed. Loved his run and carry, and how good was that finish at full...

First post game thought is thank f__k i was wearing slippers and not shoes or else i would have to explain how the TV got smashed to the wife:o Once my face returns to its normal colour and I put on some clean pants I will try to contribute something more thoughtful...

What a game, what a career, what a man! Congrats tarks on a fantastic game tonight and so far in your footy life - lets hope there are plenty more games for you just like that one in the B&W! Anyone who has anything but complete respect for this bloke must be a tool. He busts his date on the...

Sure it wasn't a sore date from getting rodgered by the selection committee :p Highlights for me tonight were: -Leon, made it worth watching just to see him do his stuff. Goals, grabs and possies galore. - Swanny, got to love the way he goes about it week after week. No fuss, no bother...

Might not have pace, but he certainly isn't lacking in composure when he has the footy. Only ealry days, but he seems to be able to think his way through a situation quickly and finds a good option most of the time - as mentioned earlier his foot skills are nooiicce. Plenty to like about the...

Tough economic times, 12.5% saving going with 42 compared to 48 :D

Crack a tinny as soon as you get up so you don't sober up :p. First couple can be a bit tough, so a dash of lemon/solo or a shot or red cordial in your can does a treat. Got me thorugh many footy trips :D. But if you don't want to turn into a complete booze hound, I have found drinking a gut...

taking all the wisdom and hopes on this thread, here is my prayer (getting back on topic...sort of!) Dear God, we come to you with our season living on prayer, even though we aren't half way there, but with Brown on board our ship will go down, just like Titanic or a chick in Struggletown...

Isn't it the one where the chick is a dude?

Is there room on the plane for a "club sniper"? I will gladly sit in the stands each week and take out the oppositions best :eek: ...or if things keep going like they are maybe someone closer to home (sorry coach :p).

Fantastic preview as always. I hang out for your previews dave as it smashes any other footy coverage we get up my way. Looking at our ins and outs, there is no doubt this is going to be a tough ask for the Pies. I will sacrifice any sort of animal i can get my hands on in the hope the...

I have been a member for 13 years now and I think this weekend will be the 10th game I have made it to in that time...something good had to come from realising I am too old to try to keep playing the game myself :eek:. Granted I do live in Canberra so will never make it to every game, but I will...

That's the spirit Loki;). Must say I thought it was super we avoided the 100 as well. No doubt it was a shytehouse night, but there are plenty of threads for venting and discussing the wasted 3 hours of my life. Here is where I have come to hide and pretend it wasn't that bad. Can you let us...

just fixed up a few typos for you...this IS the positive thread isn't it:rolleyes:

As hard as it is to say anything positive about Essendon :eek:, the way they played on Friday showed that if you are able to adapt during a game, take risks and have confidence in your team mates and anything can happen, even against the magical, mystical rolling zone. It just seems that the...

At least 2 1/2 kilos I'd say, and thats with rock salt and not your standard table salt :p

got my tickets and getting excited about getting down there for the game, but can those in the know advise me if it is worth getting tickets for the social club for those I am going with? I think i can get two extra, but does the beer taste that much better in there???

I didn't have to watch the crap that my Mrs normally watches on a Monday night. Although maybe I should have tonight :o. Effort was certainly there from a lot of the players, but the skills and harder bodies of the saints certainly showed where we need to get to. While "Side Steelbottom"...

Im in Olympic stand, M54. Think I will go the black and white stripes as well, hope you don't mind me wearing something similar to you. Be good to get to the footy after the Pies had the bye this week:eek:. And for anyone who wants to argue differently don't, the last 3 hours NEVER happend in my...
